What Causes Vomiting And Dizziness After A Jellyfish Sting?
Yes I was on vacation in Fort Myers March 11 and I believe I was stung on the foot by a Jelly Fish. Had minor burning pain and put Amonia on the area. As of yesterday the area is now iching and bubbled up. Today I am vomiting and feeling light headed. Should I seek medical attention??

Though Vomiting and dizziness are among serious effects of a jelly fish sting, these symptoms after one month after the sting are unlikely a result of that event. It might just be a result of some other cause like gastritis. I would recommend you still go to a doctor immediately and get yourself checked for the itching and swelling at the sting site
