He is now calling the illness hyperemesia syndrom which to me is a vague diagnosis which only means chronic vomiting. I am scared to find out what may be causing this diseases. He is suggesting that Jason be sent to the hospital in boston mass. We are very nervous and are challenging all of these diagnosis. We are eager to find out which one of them is the correct one. I have done tons and tons of research hoping to find some answers, or atleast a lead. If there is anyone who knows of something that this could possibly be PLEASE leave me a note.

Any information will be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much for taking the time to hear our story. Any extra special appreciation to all of you who provide your comments. God Bless.
