Throwing Up with Stomach Pain

my 6 year old is throwing up (sometime projectile) and complains of pain in his stomach for 4 days.  Eating BRAT diet but still throws up.  No food particles coming up - only fluid that is green and cloudy.  Once he throws up, he is fine.  Have him on 15 mg. Lansoprazole.  No fever, stool is normal (no diarhea).   6 yrs old, 45 lbs, 46 inches tall

thank you for your help.  i thought it was gluten intolerance but he is not having the symptoms of it.  He is on the bland diet -- bananas, rice and toast and only drinking water.  No matter what he has, his tummy gets sore after he eats.  He did go to the doctor yesterday, blood tests show no infection, nothing remarkable in the results.  His pediatrician says he might have to go to a gastroenterologist to have a endoscopy done to take a look at his esophagus and stomach.  This is his fifth day being sick.

Sounds like it may be an allergy to a food, what was he eating, anything different than usual before this started.The green vomit could be bile it can be yellow and greenish ..make sure he is hydrated and drinking liquids and as always a visit to the doctor is always good if you are concerned .good luck
