Hi,
Both vomiting and seizures may be symptoms of increased intracranial pressure or brain lesions.
In order to evaluate these possibilities correctly and even to exclude such conditions, you should get evaluated by a Neurologist and should have a brain MRI.
Treatment depends on the diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
