I started vomiting March 13. I continued to throw up at least once daily, but these last couple of days I stopped. Prior to the 13th I had night sweats. I went two a free clinic the 13th and 14th. They said my white blood cell count was 12.5 which was high. They sent me home with nausea medication. I eventually started having some bad abdominal pain. And yesterday I developed a bulge of sorts on my upper right abdomen. It shows more when I stand up. I went to the hospital. The ultrasound and CT showed up clean. They sent me home with more nausea medication. I've also had a constant slight fever of 99 lately. Idk why I'm sick or why I have this bulge?

Have you been checked for celiac disease or endometriosis? Celiac can cause mysterious GI illnesses for no apparent reason. You can also keep track of what you eat. If foods containing wheat flour, or wheat bother you, then get checked for celiac or other related problems.
Endometriosis is a female disease. Unfortunately, it can only be discovered through surgery, unless it has formed cysts, like mine had. Then it can be seen by ultrasound, but removed through surgery.
