What Causes Vomiting Along With Excessive Weight Loss?
Hello.My sister has been ill for about 9 weeks.Vomiting nearly every time she eats, 3-4 times a day. She has lost probably 30 pounds since this all started. The doctors are drawing her blood every 2 weeks but can't seem to find anything wrong.We know she is not pregnant, having had a hysterectomy several years back. I asked if she was having withdrawals from not being on her meds, but I guess the doctors claim its not that.I'm just trying to get her/them headed in the right direction to get her back healthy again.
