What Causes Nausea Along With Vomiting And Breathing Difficulty?

I have a friend who just went through testing for heart issues. All tests negative. She for the past several months has lost weight, been unable to eat, has nausea and vomits or kinda foams up stuff but biggest issiue is she is always out of breath. She cannot walk any distance without having to sit and rest. She has several times felt like she couldn t catch her breath. She s had other testing gastro - scans - and the heart testing and so far nothing. Her existence now is mostly to stay in bed. She has been a daily drinker so that worries me too.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

We will try to help you in best way possible. First of all it's sad to know what your fiend had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, the gastro scans you mentioned if didn't include endoscopy she might be needing one. Weight loss with such warning signs are no to be ignored and work up for occult malignancy should also be done. A psychiatrist evaluation is also a must as some psychiatric disorders may cause all these symptoms like bulimia nervosa etc. Alcohol should be limited and work up.of essential vitamins levels should also be done. Wishing her a speedy recovery.
