Hisflower's answer ( sorry I deleted this by mistake as I am new to this. He or she said the GP is probably sick and should see a vet)
Guinea pigs can't vomit. I wonder if what you are seeing is the heaving hiccoughs as described by Peter Gurney.
Alternatively, one of my guinea pigs went through a spell of spitting out brown fluid when I was trying to hand feed it when it was sick. I am pretty sure now that this was the result of it eating every poop in sight (not just the special ones) in order to try and restore its gut flora. It was on Baytril at the time.
