5. Vomiting

Vomiting is described as the abrupt emptying of stomach content through the mouth and occasionally trough the nostrils as well. It is usually associated with preceding nausea but some conditions may cause a person to vomit without warning, which is medically known as projectile vomiting. Patients with multiple episodes of vomiting are prone to becoming dehydrated which can cause many complications.

Some patients with gallstones complain about sporadic episodes of vomiting that are closely related to the onset of abdominal pain after meals. Luckily, this is not a common symptom and when it happens it rarely leads to complications such as dehydration.
