Hi,
For the level of his diabetes, i do not postulate vomitings are caused by his present diabetes. They must have been due to some other problem like drugs used for diabetes (like metformin), or gastritis or a peptic ulcer or a systemic disease like kidney disease or liver disease.
However, intractable vomitings should be evaluated by a gastroenterologist, who will rule out causes related to and unrelated to stomach, as there are so many.
hope i am clear.
