Sick daughter

My 17 year old daughter has had ongoing vomiting and diarrhea for 11 months. She has been hospitalized several times, many test some more than once. Her gallbladder and appendix were removed but did not help. She is currently taking no medications w/exception to nuvo ring for her periods which she just began using 2 weeks ago.
She never vomits or poos anything but yellow and green slime. Her new symptoms are headaches, tired, hungry all the time, bruising, and depression. I am looking for direction or anyone who may have the same unfortunate problem.

Thank you

Assuming Celiac Disease and Chron's have been ruled out:
My girlfriend went thru this exact scenario with her 14 year old daughter. Her diagnosis recently came back with a disorder where her stomach muscles couldn't pump the food into the intestines and would rot in her stomach; therefore, she would vomit and/or have severe diarrhea. She had to go through a particular test to find this out
Examples of stomach (gastric) motility disorders include delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis), rapid gastric emptying (dumping syndrome), and functional dyspepsia.

I hope you find answers soon and good luck!

Hi,

I happened upon your post .. have you gone the route of allergy testing at all?  Crohn's? Celiac?
