dc.description.abstract | A Ruminationation is a peculiar but interesting symptom of repeatedly regurgitating ingested food content back into the oral cavity, which cannot be explained by known physiological mechanisms. It is consistent with somatoform autonomic dysfunction. Some of the characteristic features [1,2] that are associated with this condition include absence of retching or nausea unlike other upper gastrointestinal (GI) disorders with similar manifestations. Rumination occurs within few minutes of taking food or drink and lasts for 1 or 2 h. | |
