I know it's not the best place to ask, but I don't want to be a drama queen if it's not worth it.

Basically, I went out on Friday and got slightly drunker than normal, and the last hour or two of the night in the club are a blur. On the way back to mine I was sick a fair bit of blood alongside average vomitty stuff, but because I was so drunk I just thought my friend was being overdramatic. They called an ambulance, and I had to go to hospital. When I was there I was apparently fuming and getting all shouty as I didn't think it was worth the hospital/wasting the nurses time. I know I had blood tests done and was on one of those beeby things that check your heart... but as I kept getting angry I eventually discharged myself.

Two questions;
- If it was bad, would the hospital of let me know the next day, seeing as I discharged myself that night?
- Should I speak to my doctor about being sick blood? Apparently it wasn't just a little bit like you sometimes get in your sick but alot, suggesting it may have been more that a burst vessel. But I feel pretty much fine now... so I don't want to waste the doctors time.

And just so you know, I have never been in hospital before when drunk... I think thats ironically why I was so angry, as I was 'taking up their time' when I felt like I shouldn't of been there.

You could also have a bleeding ulcer?

I think you should go see your gp. The hospital probably don't really care.

You leave this forum for a few months and become a raging drunk


Might as well make a GP appointment, won't do any harm, and then at least you'll know.

Yeah, go to your local GP. Better to be safe than sorry. At least it will put your own mind at rest.

Would he be able to do tests, or would it be just as worthwhile calling NHS Direct? I hate wasting peoples time if I'm actually fine now!

What were you drinking? If it was a "dark" drink, eg cider and black or red wine for example, that could make your saliva look bloody, what a nice thought, rofl. Hope you are ok now!

It is possible you burst a blood vessel while vomitting...hence the blood, but no lasting harm....my advice would always be to get it checked out anyway, as it's only a 5 minute appointment, but you have to decide that...you were concerned enough to post it, so maybe that's your answer.....
