Cyclical Vomiting Syndrome

Posted by 77montecarlo @77montecarlo, Feb 9 1:43pm

I was recently diagnosed with CVS after finding Barrett's Espophagus. I believe I have had this for the past two plus years.

Am already on recommended meds - Pregabalin, Baclofen, Imitrex, Sucralfate, Amitriptyline, and Omeprazole - for Fibromyalgia. Just got PCP to give Hydroxyzine.

Anyone dealing with CVS have other ideas for me to try?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.

Hi,
I'm so sorry that you are going through this awful situation and for more than 2 years! Have you considered looking up the side effects of the many medications you are taking for this? Often the side effects of a medication can make things worse.
I wish you the best and will say a prayer for you.

After two plus years of GI issues (nausea, vomiting, weight loss of 40 # in 4 months), I was diagnosed with CVS.

All of the recommended meds I am on for Fibromyalgia - Amitriptyline, Baclofen, Imitrex, Omeprazole, Pregabalin, and Sucralfate - and wondering if there are more options. Diet, lifestyle, and exercise of course. Is there something I am missing?

I know everyone is different, but there has to be a working solution for most.
