The "green stuff" is just bile and means that her stomach is empty because she has vomited everything up. Pepto Bismol is just to caot her stomach to rellieve pain and indigestion. She probably has heartburn from vomiting forcefully. It doesn't sound like a big deal and may just be a virus that she has picked up.

The green stuff is probably bile. She could have gastrointestinal problem, maybe something with her stomach or gallbladder. Since she is vomiting, she is losing fluid and electrolytes. Electrolytes are very important to heart function. She is probably drinking the ginger ale and pepto to calm her stomach, and the gatorade to replenish fluids and electrolytes.
If you are worried about your mom, ask HER what is wrong.
Good Luck!

She may have an ulcer since she has been so stressed out or some serious stomach problems ! Do not put any more stress on her because if it is an ulcer every time she gets upset it will flareup!! Good luck and i didnot mean that just you stress her out but to not let any one upset her until she finds out her test results!!

Something is going on Internally hun. If her Thyroid is out of wack, her doctor may have put her on medications that her stomach is not accepting. Don't worry, hopefully in time, all will be ok...

She probably has a gastrointestinal problem. What you need to do is simply ask her whats going on.
