my girlfriend has a problem where once she
gets a sore throat her reaction is
typically followed by a constant bout of
vomiting (she seems to vomit constanly
every 1/2 hr - 1hr) that seems endless and
it can take her up to a full week to
recover. She has undergone numerous tests
to see what causes her sore throats
(sometimes they are from a cold or flu,
and at other times there are unknown
causes)however they have found nothing.
What I am concerned about more is not her
sore throats but this reaction she gets
from them of constant vomiting which
sometimes can only be stopped by an
injection or a pill which her doctor has
prescribed her. It can get really bad and
she has been in hospital at one stage.
They have done an endoscopy (i think thats
how you say it) where they put a tube and
camera down her throat to see if she has
any infections or ulcers in her stomach or
throat but again have found nothing and it
seeems her doctor and specialist cant pin
point the problem and have even admitted
they dont know what causes the problem or
why she reacts like this. Some people say
its her diet and that she cant eat this
and that but she does not eat junk all the
time and usually eats good home cooked
meals. Can some one please help, any
suggestions or ideas or further stepds to
take? I am really concerned for her well
being.
