Retching no vomiting

I have had retching but no vomiting for over a week now. I had these symptoms during pregancy (I assure you I'm not pregnant I had a hysterectomy). I had my gallbladder removed about 4 years ago. I do have GERD, hower, I have never have had these symptoms before. Any ideas or has anyone experience any of these symptom?

Thank you

Glad you found us Gloria, but so sorry to hear the reason why you are here.


Retching, as in dry heaving, is that what you are experiencing? I hope you have called and scheduled an appointment with your doctor. I get occasional burping that can be very annoying and brings up food, but retching sounds a bit more extreme.


Please make that appointment and keep us informed, OK?

Please let us know what the doctor thinks might be causing this, OK?


All I can think of is something like an allergy, which could cause a post nasal drip, which could be enough to cause dry heaving. Weirder things are possible!
