Ok, so I have eaten too fast. My stomach gets uncomfortable and it takes me like 4 hours before I get sick.  Is this normal?  I read people get sick, but me I take forever to throw up and in the meantime I am uncomfortable.
I just wonder...is that normal?

I mean I know I am not normal, but is my stomach behaving normally?

have a great night

I don't have an answer - perhaps you could get a faster one though over on the RNY board.  Meanwhile, I really hope you feel better soon, eating slower was the biggest and hardest lesson for me to learn.
I owed it to myself to research the duodenal switch before consenting to any other weight loss surgery and so do you.  Check out DSFacts.com and DuodenalSwitch.com for more information.  Remember think twice, cut once, revisions are risky and revision surgeons are rare.

It is very hard for me to throw up now. But when I was like 2 to 3 months out and ate too fast I get the foamies and then throw up. I don't remember it taking 4 hrs though.

I think it's normal, for what my 2 cents is worth! 

When I eat too quickly or don't chew well enough, I get that feeling of wanting to get sick without being able to.  It's maddening because I know I'd feel better if I could just get rid of it!   Although I rarely do get sick....it finally just works its way through.  I think we're all just different in how we react.

I to take for ever to get sick.Just a few days ago i was eating to fast and went to get dressed to leave and the feeling hit me so i told the boys we will leave when i either fet sick or this passes.It took from 1 oclock til almost 6 before i was able to be sick,I get so uncomfortable that i have to set with my head back.So am i normal (no)but seriously its been like for about 6 months now i used to get sick right away.I have learned not to eat with the boys if they are in a hurry cause i eat to fast with them.
But i would say your stomach is in the norm.
Good luck sweetie

I don't get sick as much now.  It just takes a while to figure out what you can eat.  I used to get sick for hours too.  Sometimes, it would just pass.  Othertimes, it would be a couple of hours then throwing up.  I tried to eat fish for the second and last time (lol) over the weekend.  I knew almost immediately that my pouch didn't like it.   I was able to vomit in 20 minutes.  Who knew I would be excited about that.  I am only 3-1/2 months out, but it is getting easier.
