It could be his gall bladder. I was throwing up for six weeks before it got to a point it was everyday and I couldn't keep anything down. A two week hospital stay followed suit. Normally vomiting is not the only symptom and abdominal pain follows, but in my case it was only vomiting.

will the scan he just had show it, or what test do they do to see if it is his gallbladder

Does he have allergies/post nasal drip? If he wakes up with a lot of PND in his stomach and then ingests milk (with cereal, etc) or citrus juices, it can cause him to vomit. Or it could be gallbladder as well.

No, and what is odd is, if he can sleep untill 10 or 11 he is usally okay.and no meds helps not even the med they give you if you are having cemo. we tryed to go on a low fat diet and no caffee we try very light dinners, we try no milk. but nothing, he still throws up and he throws up before he eats anything as soon as he gets up he gose stright to the bathroom sometimes he will just throw up a few times sometimes it 10 or more
