This is how I ended up on tube feeds and now tpn dependant. It's so hard to know what to do. I moved from Texas to Cleveland for treatment at the clinics because I was failing to thrive there. I wore down to 110 initially. You're not alone.... have tried any antiemetics for the vomiting?

that makes me wonder about cyclic vomiting syndrome or CVS. I was stuck in the cycle of that for awhile. Its a mess to work through figuratively and literally. I'm no Dr, but I swear I should have an honorary degree by now lol. Hope this helps.... at least gives you info about it to see if it's fitting. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/14894-cyclic-vomiting-syndrome#:~:text=How%20is%20cyclic%20vomiting%20syndrome%20(CVS)%20treated%3F,your%20attack%20after%20it%20starts.
