Posted on Tue, 28 Jul 2015
Question: Son (18yrs old) vomits / throws up on a almost continuous basis after eating food-any food. Doctors in area (Orlando, FL) have performed endoscopy, ultrasound, colonoscopy and a biopsy. Cannot find cause- Gurd was ruled out. He is autistic and will not eat lumpy items. Thinking gastroparesis but he will not eat the "oatmeal" for the test. Help!!
