Hi
I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you.
The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a possible dehydration that may be setting in secondary to the vomiting.
The dehydration will be making him dull.

If the child is vomiting, no matter what you feed he will vomit further and get more dehydrated.
