A member asked:

4yo vomited and had tummy pain with fever and vomiting then 23hrs fever and vomit free then puked first thing this morning, could this be brain tumor?

Very unlikely: Brain tumor patients puke in the middle of the night after a period of shallow breathing increases their brain pressure. This kid likely just had more appetite than the stomach was ready to handle after a stomach virus.A gradual return to feeding is always best.
