Constant Puking

2018-03-13 18:38:57
Since November my brother has been puking (note that he was born with a perforated anus and had surgery for it as an infant.) Every place we took him gave him miralax, until we went to OU for children's, where an abdominal exploratory surgery was done in February that found grown over scar tissue. After fixing that, he seemed to do better. Now he's puking again. We thought it was the flu because he was delirious, puking, and feverish. Took him to the doctor yesterday and all tests were neg.

Given the past history of imperforate anus & multiple laparotomies, surgical causes for vomiting too has to be ruled out urgently. Although you have mentioned that "yesterday all tests were neg", please get reviewed or get second opinion since vomiting is persisting.
Next Steps
Review with the same doctor & inform that vomiting is not improved; else, get second opinion
