Please help my daughter.

About 5 months ago my daughter started vomiting numerous times a day, every day.  She has had her appendix out.  Her gallbladder removed, and just about every test the local doctors can think of.  Yet we still have no diagnosis.  She has been so sick for so long, she's starting to get depression.  She's 17 and will be a senior this year in high school, if she's well enough to go.  Can anyone out there think of anything?  Please help my little girl!  

Thanks,

John

Ask the doctors how familiar with CYCLIC VOMITING SYNDROME or CVS they are  if not find someone who is.

before allowing your doctor to do anything else to your daughter seek another doctor.
how can he perform any treatments  without knowing what he wants to accomplish?

My sisters 5 yr old daughter is going through the same very thing.She throws up at least 20-25 times per day.Shes been ruled out for GERD,has had a Upper.GI test,and a CT Scan of her brain. The thing is,shes not losing ANY weight from it...My sister is wating for the results from the CT Scan,and maybe that will give her some answers...

I wish you the best of luck on finding whats wrong with your daughter....
