Brief Answer:
Acute gastritis

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

It looks like you are having an episode of acute gastritis. Most likely due to some bacterial toxins in the food you ate
Here are my suggestions

1. do not consume anything for the next couple of hours
2. tab omeprazole with domperidone is the ideal tablet. It has to be taken on an empty stomach. It will stop the vomiting
3. buy yourself an ors XXXXXXX mix it in 1 litre of water. Drink sip by sip over 3 hours. Do not gulp it down
4. Sleep with head end slightly elevated. Keep two pillows

You should feel better, if vomiting continues then please seek medical help.

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
