Frequent Vomiting

[francineb]

My daughter vomits frequently in the middle of the night (after which she goes back to sleep without any problems). Typically there is a large amount of undigested food. This past summer I took her to see the doctor and he ordered an MRI. We found an arachnoid cyst in the middle cranial fossa. It's fairly small and two neurosurgeons stated that her cyst was not causing the vomiting. They stated it was not creating a mass effect and that the location of the cyst would not cause vomiting, rather visual disturbances or seizures. So four months later we are trying to figure out why she is vomiting. It goes in phases. Sometimes it will be once a week for a couples weeks and then nothing for a few weeks. The past two weeks it has happend 4 and 5 times. In the past year she has put on weight. This summer an x-ray was taken and there were no obstructions observed. What could this be?

hey, I can definitely relate to your daughter. I'm 19 years old and doing the same thing. Not as often but much more than usual. I never get fevers or anything, just vomit then I'm fine. Does anyone have an answer? It's really irritating and worrying me.

My daughter is doing the same thing...not as frequent but just vomiting and acting totally normal after. No fever, no nothing...right back to sleep when she is done vomiting...what is it????

hi, i think its the food that shes consuming, try cutting back on her sugar intake, also if you can keep her off dairy products for a few days, cheers.
