What made me throw up so fast from drinking alcohol...?

Question

Maybe this is an obvious answer I don't know. But I normally can have a few shots and a couple of mixed vodka or rum drinks before getting really drunk. I hardly drink, maybe twice a month or so. But I do okay with a few. Last night I went to a party with my friends and I had only two mixed Vodka and Sprite drinks I mixed myself. After the second one, which I don't feel I drank very fast I couldn't even concentrate on the video games we were playing and I ended up running to the bathroom shortly after and throwing up. Do you think it was because I had an empty stomach? I just found it strange how I can normally drink a lot more and vodka usually is my drink of choice and last night two got me immediately sick.

Answer 1

you weigh like 2 pounds

Answer 2

don't take shots so fast at lest wait until you feel the last one before taking another, but maybe your drinking something to sweet i know it makes me sick. remember it takes 1 hour for your body to digest  1oz

Answer 3

it's probably because you were drinking on an empty stomach. my friend was fasting and she got drunk and ended up throwing up ALL NIGHT from like 5 shots

otherwise it could've been caffiene

Answer 4

eat a little when you drink

alcohol gets you harder when you have a emptier stomach

Answer 5

yep it was the empty stomach you can drink a lot more on a fuller stomach

Answer 6

Not eating, you could be little like a friend of mine so you get drunk quicker or your drink was spiked after you made it.there could be a variety of reasons

Answer 7

Yeah if you were on an empty stomach that probably led to it...

Answer 8

Having an empty stomach makes a huge difference.  Always eat something when you're drinking.

Answer 9

You answered it yourself, not eating.

Also, if your going to drink, eat two slices of bread or two slices of toast before.

Answer 10

Yea its cause you were on an empty stomach.

Answer 11

did you drink water afterwards? yeah it could have been the empty stomach..thats done it for me before..but if you drink alcohol then drink water..the alcohol that begins to line your esophagus is washed down with the purity of the water..caffine just sticks too so doesnt wash the alcohol down but water doesnt stick and washes it on down to the stomach very fast which will make you very sick..didnt know that when i chugged 2 bottles of water after getting drunk my first time haha...wont do it again tho..

Answer 12

Sounds like you're pregnant.

Answer 13

Everyone has their own limit. Exceed it and you'll be visiting the porcelain throne.

Answer 14

Yes, it's a common rule that you don't drink on an empty stomach.  With an empty stomach, the alcohol can rush straight through your stomach to the intestines and it's off into your bloodstream faster.  

This also often happens when you get a bit too overconfident about your alcohol tolerance - binge drink too fast and your body reacts.

It's also possible (though unlikely) that your drink was spiked.

Answer 15

You weigh just as much as a feather..

You didn't eat anything at all..

You probably got motion sickness from video games..

You probably just consumed too much alcohol,

just because you 'think' you can handle more than you did doesn't mean you can. Besides you are just considered a "light weight"
