CVS is Rare: Cyclical vomiting syndrome (cvs) is a diagnosis of exclusion. It is a rare problem. It has a very typical pattern of severe vomiting which lasts for less than 48 hours. In between episodes, people are totally fine. Attacks occur every few weeks or months. Acid reflux, gastroparesis, gallbladder and pancreas disease need to be excluded. Avoid marijuana - it has recently been implicated as a cause.
