Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, she might be having some underlying subacute obstruction of the gut. CT abdomen as well as oral intake should be reduced to sips only. Surgical review as well as gastroenterologist review may be needed. Tumor markers and abdominal infections should also be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Saddiq Ulabidin
