Question
Hey,
How are you?  I am not sure if you are the best person to pose this question to, but I can't find any experts who can really help me.  My friend took about three shots of Hennessy last night, and before she fell asleep, she was up for about three hours after she drank, and threw up three times in those three hours.  Now, after sleeping for about two and a half hours, she can no longer stay asleep and has thrown up several more times.  She said there are no chunks in her barf and it's mainly yellow.  She can't drink anything because it makes her want to throw up more.

I don't know how much these details will help, but if you can please, please help me (or well, my friend) as soon as possible.  Thank you so much.

Answer
Good morning Victor:

Thank you for your question. I am not a doctor so I can't give you an answer to your question. However, common sense would say to get your friend to a doctor, or go to a hospital emergency room ASAP.

I don't want to get into a discourse that would normally be long, but ask yourself if she took any drugs while drinking? Has she become allergic to alcohol? Has she coincidently got the flu? Did she have any contaminated food, etc? BUT, IN ANY CASE GET HER MEDICAL ATTENTION ASAP!

Good Luck Rebos
