vomiting after eating since last one year

My nephew aged 12 year vomit within 15 min after eating the food. problem is

from last one and half years. Consulted with all specialist, all tests

done,hospitalized many times.Nothing came up. Frequent visits to doctors and

hospitalization made him short tempered and arrogant.Recently he was admitted

to psychiatric to find out any psychological cause. It didnt help,instead

situation worsened, His weight reduced to 17 kg due to controlled diet( as a

part of treatment).If somebody had same problem and got cured please inform

me. Thanks.

Sorry to hear about your nephew's condition. Has he been tested for Gastroparesis?

Usually diagnosed by a gastric emptying scan or an upper abdominal endoscopy. Do check with his doctor.
