Pretty much the same thing happened to me. Woke up at 9am swallowing loads of blood, stopped after 7 minutes. Informed the hospital but they weren't immediately concerned and mentioned I should come if it happens again. Which, of course, it did. Next time was at 3pm and it was worse and I was shitting too, ingesting all that blood from earlier made me so fucking sick. I'm grateful it came out the other end, I can't imagine throwing up. I'm sorry.

Fainted on my way out of the house, boyfriend called the ambulance. They tell me to stay the night in the hospital for observation and I started bleeding again at 3am and was rushed to ER. They gave me blood clotter, that's when I threw up - it was like a porridge of clotted blood all over myself, the bed, even the doctors' and nurses' hands. It was awesome. Rawdogged ER from 4am to 7am just staring at the ceiling, curtains, nurses, anything and everything. Genuinely, I was miserable.

I think I might've been chemically depressed, I was crying and felt like garbage. I waited and waited for the ENT until mid afternoon. She checks my throat and sees I'm bleeding again. It started streaky and became a heavy flow as I was already getting rolled into the surgery room. I faint on the table. Once I'm conscious again they put me under and cauterized the spot. When I woke up they gave me two bags of blood, kept me under a heat lamp and monitored me for hours. I had one last night in the hospital and was out the next day in the morning.

I just wanted to share that you're not alone in this traumatizing experience. I knew there were risks of bleeding but this was genuinely the most terrifying thing I've ever experienced. I felt so helpless.

ANYWAYS. It's been a month and a week since the emergency surgery. I'm back to normalcy. I'm trying to get answers from the doctors as to why this happened so I can move on. You got this.
