What Causes Severe Vomiting In An Elderly Person?

Read below
Detailed Answer:
I read your question carefully and I understand your concern.
Dizziness can have many different causes, it is not always easy to pinpoint the cause right away. Given the fact that she has low grade fever as well the main hypothesis would be that of an infection.
Another possibility would be that of an inner ear issue. The inner ear is very much involved in balance and its disorders are the main cause of recurrent dizziness and vomiting.
Anemia or metabolic alterations can also cause dizziness, and symptoms like dizziness and vomiting depending on the origin.
So I would say the first step would be a physical exam to check for signs of infection or of other organ involvement (perhaps primary physician already done that) and some blood tests like complete blood count, ESR, CRP, glucose, liver and kidney function, electrolyte panel.
What further steps are taken depend on the findings.
I remain at your disposal for other questions.
