Unidentified cause for sickness

Hi I have had a bunch of tests done and still do not have any answers.  I started out by eating and then just throwing up right after eating. Now it seems my symptoms have changed and it is 2-3 hours after eating that I feel nauseated.  I am basically living off of promethazine and compazine.  I am miserable and irritable.  I have lost about ten pounds so far. I tend to feel better in the mornings.  I also get motion sickness very easy.  I have made an appointment at the cleveland clinic for next Monday but I was wondering if you had any suggestions.
Thanks, Crystal

I had many of these symptoms for many years.  Like your daughter they kept telling me it was this and that but still continued,  Finally while in the hospital after a scan an Italian Doctor who was to do exploratory surgery came in to talk to me.  I mentioned my appendix was frozen when I was a child and several members of my family had issues with the appendix.
He ran out and came back he said he couldn't even see the appendix it was covered with so much scar tissue.  He operated the next day and removed my appendix,  This was over 20 years ago and I have not had another problem.  He took pictures and told me to take it to all the doctors I had gone to and show them.  Some people do suffer from chronic appendicitis, You might want to ask the doctor specifically about her appendix,  Good luck and God Bless,
