Default How long does it take?

Does anyone know how long it should take for food to get broken up after swallowing?

Last night after eating Ellie felt kind of bloated and part of her stomach was hard. It was still bigger than usual this morning and I decided to have her skip breakfast. I gave her lunch probably around 3 and a few minutes ago she threw it up. She doesn't chew very much and evidently didn't chew her noodles because is was a pile of elbow macaroni. Something isn't quite right (she is acting fine) and I wonder if it is her pancreas again.

She is very itchy again.
I let her have something I shouldn't have last week (bread with corn something or other in it) and that might have done it but I'm not sure since she has Cheerios occasionally and they also have a corn ingredient. Or maybe it was the wheat in the bread. Or maybe the reintroduction of a meat we don't use often. Anyway, she got itchy the first time she had a pancreas issue too. I was thinking it was an allergy to the meat she was on but don't know now. I'm kind of confused.

Anyway, I'm done rambling but shouldn't that have been broken up by say 4 or 5 o'clock?
