throwing up almost
Okay so about a week and a half ago, I got dental surgery. I had 5 teeth yanked, so for the past week, I've been eating soft foods. A few days ago I started eating regularly again. But the day I started, I almost threw up. Like I had a little in my mouth and I swallowed it quickly and washed out my mouth. Today, just about 5 minutes ago, it happened again, and it tasted like the coco puffs I had for breakfast. But it still tasted bad. But what's going on?? Why do I just all of a sudden throw up in my mouth?

Maybe give some free advice about: Nutrition?
Maybe from where for that week you was eating soft foods, your body just got used to it. Maybe your throwing up because your stomach got so used to the soft foods. If i was you i would just stay away from bread, and try to avoid milk for a few days. Maybe try saltine crackers, or soup. Then step it up a little bit from there..
But again, it could be, (not saying it is) a reaction to the medicine they gave you before pulling the teeth.

Your body's probably not used to regular food yet.
Stick to bland, "light" things for now, like cereal instead of bagels. Eat in small quantities & gradually re-introduce normal foods a little at a time. If they gave you pain meds or whatnot after the surgery (which I hope for you sake that they did =P) a side effect of nausea/stomach upset is more than likely.
If after a few days you're still feeling like throwing up, invest in some Alka Seltzer or Pepto Bismol & give your dentist a call. But I'm sure you'll be fine =)
