Does anyone else experience eggy burps with vomiting occasionally?

Does anyone else with acid reflux experience eggy smelling fowl burps that once they start you know eventually you will vomit.  I have had recently an endoscophy.  I have read online many people experience this with and without acid reflux or gall bladders. I have it happen once every couple months or so but just dread it so and am not sure what could trigger or cause it. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Coffeebean,

 

I am not sure why you are getting the eggy smell (which indicates a sulfur component) but you can read about the nausea and vomiting here. It is probably best that you see your doctor to make sure you are not experiencing anything with your pancreas, as pancreatitis can also cause symptoms similar to what you are experiencing.

 

Take care and stay in touch!
