@heisenberg34 and all... So sorry... the vomiting is a tough side effect and, yes, my 57 year old son experienced severe vomiting for a time, tapering to less but still there. He takes Zofran as needed if it'it's continues. I also got Bonine ear patches, for sea sickness. They do help!

I started him on an excellent daily Probiotic by Probulin. Referred by doc for my IBD. It helps him greatly with diarrhea and vomiting issues. A good add.

He has Dilaudid and Backlofen in his pump. Morphine did nothing but make him vomit. No pain relief. Dilaudid is helping.

Hope this helps you some.
Blessings, Elizabeth

@ess77 Thanks a lot for your reply. Did your son experience vomiting after his trial with dilaudud? My current spell of vomiting is really weird. I can almost predict when it's going to happen. When I first wake up, I will have this strange feeling. Hard to describe. But it is not always there, But, when it is, I can almost always expect a series of "vomitus eruptus". Other days it just comes on, out of the blue, very suddenly, Then I have to literally run to the bathroom. This will often be repeated several times until there is nothing left to expel. Wish I could figure it out. Will likely have to go back to Gastro/Enterologist and see if he can figure it out.
