Honestly, water and plenty of rest is your best bet. Theonly way your body will feel better is through time. Let your liver do the work.
Hope you feel better too!

Thanks for all your responses, guys. It's not that I haven't dealt with bad day-afters before. I just haven't thrown up bile all of a sudden a few hours after waking up. That's what worried me. I've never thrown up bile before. It was horribly acidic, it hurt, and I accidentally inhaled a bit of it while I was wretching which made me stop breathing for a good 30 seconds. But I stopped, called Telehealth, and was told not to do anything differently, just take it easy and hydrate. So I did, eventually had some food, took a nap, then left for the concert.
Just got back. I'm exhausted. What a weekend.
I am Chinese, but I don't lack acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, which is what makes some Asians (note: some) sensitive to alcohol (build-up of acetaldehyde is what causes the harder hangover in those folk). You can recognize them by the "Asian glow" they get when they drink. Thankfully I don't glow; I can hold my liquor well.
Thanks for all the responses guys! I think it's time for a nice long sleep. Cheers.

When I have overdone it, I try to drink as much water/gatorade the night before, with some aspirin. Then put a large glass next to the bed. If I wakeup during the night, I drink the water.
Works most of the time, but if it doesn't the only thing that can help is time. Or another drink.
This is why there are bloody marys.

LOLOL. That's exactly what I thought, too.
That Vitamin water really does help. Nothing kills a hangover better than that stuff in my experience.
the best thing after a heavy night is any all you can eat buffet. Get a jug of water for yourself too.
If your such a write off you cant face going outside, nothing beats watching movies all day

Some researchers believe that up to 50% of Asians have such a mutation.
I was in the same situation a few days ago, except I had diarrhea and symptoms of the stomach flu.
My suggestion is continue to puke, but make sure you replenish yourself with fluids. Gatorade is the best drink to take when dealing with any hangover type symptoms. Other than that time is the only thing that helps.
Edit: Good to see its ok!
Did anyone else think it was weird that one of his activities to pass the time was reading? Yikes!
No prob.
My doctor told me about it when I mentioned to him that I seem to get immensely drunk after a single drink.
Not weird at all. Laying down, going at your own pace, able to nap if needed...reading is the best comfort activity ever!
[doublepost=1464629756][/doublepost]That is the most comic understatement I've seen. ... Please,, come and drink with myself my friends and my family we would make you look like a 2 beer queer! We make homemade moonshine I would like to see you finish the mason jar! It's not small either. Haha!
While your advice is very timely, we haven't seen Cleanup 'round these parts lo, since two years ago. For that matter, the concern of hangover occurred 7 years ago.
Hopefully, he figured something out in the meantime.

In my experience, the best way to see off hangovers is to take preventative action before they can occur.
I always have a large glass of water per drink (or, per round), - as in per glass of wine, or glass of beer - when I am out having a few drinks. That ensures that I generally don't get a hangover in the first place.
Interesting to see a thread discussing such a topic resurrected.
