my 21 year old son was just in the hospital for 3 weeks and had a partial gastrectomy after having a perforated ulcer in his stomach/small intestines meet due to a blockage after throwing up after every time he ate or drank something for 2 weeks and had a weight lost of 40 lbs in 3 months and also after they had put him on Prilosec and Reglan (which is also what they put you on for chemo).  They are now saying  this is due to him having chron's disease which his biological father has.  He is still on the reglan because it also helps with the stomach contracting.  If I were you I would push on further tests to be done sooner than later.

Ok let's see.
Is there acid in the vomit? Is it worse in the morning and continues till noon?

My depression/anxiety started at 17 yrs of age with hyperacidity and throwing up constantly.No doctor could figure it out.It could be because of the stress hormone CORTISOL.

Give him 40mg of Prilosec in the morning.
