Cyclic vomiting ?: This pattern sounds like cyclic vomiting. This is a poorly understood pattern of dramatic vomiting for hours or days followed by periods of good health. Evaluation for triggering events or foods can help avoid recurrences. It is most common in middle childhood but occasional occurs later. Comfort measures and meds help during events. Dehydration during episodes is the most common complication.
