Hi.
Thanks for your query.
It is obviously pancreatitis which causes the problems in the upper intestines like strictures or so and hence the vomiting relieving the pain also. Added problem of candida can be troublesome and also indicate reduced immunity, diabetes or so.
Needs tests for pancreatic functions, blood sugar, insulin and so on, upper GI endoscopy and Barium studies.
If needed surgery may be helpful for permanent cure.
