What Causes Chronic Vomiting At Night?
My 14 year old daughter has been throwing up 4 or 5 times throughout the night. Im thinking either food poining or ill. This last time she was getting sick she blacked out and I was able to catch her and follow her to the ground. Do I need to take her to the er?

Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!
Vomiting at night in a child or teenager, needs attention. The cause can be from a simple reflux to anxiety to surgical issues. To begin with, keep a weight chart over 7 days. Weight loss will need attention. Is this related to her menstrual cycles or fever? Related to any particular type of food? She surely needs to have a talk with the GP for a focused attention.
