Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 4 year old son throws up almost everytime he eats. There are only a few things he is able to eat without throwing up and he does not even eat enough food through out the day to make up one meal. It has been going on for months, what could be causing this?
