Hi i was out on the bike the other day during fairly windy conditions around 3pm after doing prob half a mile i started to feel terrible then after the 6 miles i had to stop and be sick. I think the problem may have been the lack of food throughout that day all i ate was a bowl of muesli around 10.30ish and bannana 20 mins before the ride. what caused this? i also notice if i go out with my mates and have even a few drinks the next day i'm really really sick. could i have an ulcer or what or is it unlikely for a 27 yr old who drinks maybe every 2 weeks? eats loads of fruit drinks at least 1.5 ltr of water a day but in the morning i have to take tablets but i normally dont eat as i dont feel hungry when i first wake up.

    It's GP time, mate, and no mistake.

    I new a guy way back who had a lot of unexplained vomiting and it turned out he had a hiatus hernia. Not particularly serious and easily fixed, but bloody inconvenient if untreated and, IIRC, as with so many things, likely to get worse if left.

    I'm with sloboy. Don't ask about things like this on a forum. Go see a doctor for gods sake.

    Go see the quack and find out if it is potentially serious, or whether you just got really bad bonk from lack of food (it can happen). Err on the side of caution would be my advice.

    What do I ride? Now that's an Enigma!

    I'd get to the doctor and get it sorted, and not ride much either if you keep being sick, you might associate the bike with vomiting and then have to sell/give away Lucy to a new home. :shock: See that's what happens when you don't go to the GP :o
  • LUCY IS GOING NOWHERE!!! i'm just going to give them a buzz now.
