When I was studying to be a paramedic we were told to be on the look out for anything that looked like coffee grounds.  If you have vomit that looks like coffee grounds you have internal bleeding.  What  you have more than likely is bleeding toward the back of your mouth or throat.

I had blood in my vomit last march.  It was strings and small chunks(about the size of a dime).  Went to ER where I was told my lapband had slipped down, causing vomit to go into my lungs.  You need to get it checked out for sure.

Either way you should have it checked by your primary doc and then your surgeon if that proves to be needed.

Before you panic, did you eat or drink anything pink? Any pink meds? Tums or Rolaids? Gum that may have made stomach contents pink?
