Well the first time was Nov. of last year. We had his birthday party
things were fine, everyone was settling down and tired after the 2hr
party in the afternoon and about 7 or 8pm he started running a low
grade fever and complaining of a really bad stomach ache(kid knows
pain, high pain tolerance so takes alot for him to complain). After
him thrashing around for 4 hours of severe stomach cramps coming in
waves he threw up for about 15min and felt better. Had a tummy ache
the next day. 1 month later another episode, this time started
throwing up at 10ish pm and threw up and dry heaved all night. He had
a stomach ache all day the next day. Same as the other 2 the 5
months. June was different. These episodes got more frequent up to
1 to 2 times a week verses every month. July 2 episodes and knocking
on wood nothing since the end of July. All of these come at night
not always with a fever but ALWAYS with severe stomach cramping and
throwing up. Some times one episode of throwing up, sometimes
mulitple. There are 5 people in my family plus extened memebers that
are never sick around when he is so not actual "illness" that is why
we are trying to figure out what is going on with him. Hope this
helps you, help me.

is hard to tell without that info and the time of them and how long
in between if it is CVS. My 6 yr old also has it every 5 weeks for 3
day intervals , vomits up to 40 or 50 times within 3 to 4 hours.

hasnt had any problem with her throat but lately , I notice she has
had an "itchy" throat , tries to clear it a lot and sometimes makes
guttural loud throat noises out of nowhere . I suppose she could
have throat damage from the vomiting , guess I should have it
checked , any one?
