Teen Nausea and vomiting 5 weeks

[Firedad]

My 17 yo daughter has been vomiting for the past five weeks. At times she is nauseated but other times she just vomits. She vomits after eating and other times between meals. She is not dehydrated not is she loosing weight.
We have seen our family doctor who took blood work - all normal. We have see a GI doctor who took a CT of her abdomen and performed and edoscopy, all with negative results. Our latest exam was to have a MRI of her brain which came back negative.
No medicine has been able to stop this N/V not even zophran.
We have tried stomach meds for excess acid with no results.
Our daughter is a HS senior and does not seem to be under a great deal of stress. She has spoken on the phone to a psycologist who said she sounds normal - for a HS senior.
We don't know where to go from here. She has missed five weeks of school and don't know if we let this run its course or try some other mode of treatment. Herbal meds???
Any thoughts?

Hi Dad

Has seen been tested for H.Pylorie?

I would suggest that she get on an enzyme product like Zymitol and also a good probiotic such as Latero-Flora. I would also suggest using ginger to help ease the stomach. Sometimes IBS is a factor. Is she having 2-3 bowel movements daily or is she constipated?

Check out www.cvsaonline.org to read about Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome.

Hope this helps.

Take Care & Be Well,

Health Dr. 2,
Thank you so much for the reply!
My wife thinks the blood work did include a check for H. Pylorie. We have requested a copy be sent to us.
We have tried the ginger pills but my daughter did not seem to get much relief.
BMs have been somewht normal, maybe minor constipation. She seems well hydrated and has not been losing weight.
I did look into the CVS website Thanks. The only thing she has not felt is the severe nausea. She has had two great days 6/4 - no vomiting and 6/7 with very few vomiting episodes.
We are seeing a counselor this week to check the stress aspect as this.
The CVS site states stress could be a factor.

Thanks again
Firedad and mom
