What Causes Choking Sensation In Chest And White Foamy Vomit?
Hi. Occasionally while eating I feel like I have food stuck in my chest and it causes me to vomit. A lot. But most of what comes out is white foam. It doesn t happen often, maybe 5 or 6 times in the past year, but it is insanely painful when it does. I had a baby last year and I am still about 40 pounds overweight. Could this have something to do with it?

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to gastroesophageal reflux disease. I suggest using a gastro protector such as Omeprazole 20 mg daily. I also suggest using antacids such as Maalox three times a day. I recommend to avoid food that can trigger the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
