    Hi, rossysoo!

    What sort of things is he eating and drinking? Also, is he getting enough rest, on a good bed, and seeing a physician on a regular basis?

    I can identify with the back pain thing. I would wake up in the middle of the night and start coughing and throwing up because my back hurt so bad. My back started to feel better after I started to use a heating pad when I went to bed.

    Hopefully, others will also come along to address your question.

    Thanks!

    I am hypoglycemic and often a few hours after I eat when my sugar drops I get nauseated,sometimes to the point of vomiting.

    When he complains of feeling nauseous perhaps a few dry crackers and orange juice might help,if in fact it is a hypoglycemic reaction.

    I am not trying to give you a diagnosis here ,I am simply stating what happens to me as a result of my condition.

    I think his doctor should be advised of this problem as daily vomiting is serious,especially for someone his age.
