Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome

This application contains information about cyclic vomiting syndrome.

Someone with CVS will feel very sick and may vomit for hours or even days at a time. They'll recover from the episode and feel perfectly well before having another episode perhaps a month or so later.

CVS can last for months, years or even decades. The symptoms can be so severe that some people need to be admitted to hospital for treatment.

The cause of CVS is currently unknown, but there may be a link with a migraine. Many people with CVS develop migraines, and migraine medicines have been shown to help treat the syndrome.

Vomiting episodes can sometimes be triggered by:

• emotional stress – excitement, anxiety or panic attacks

• an infection – such as a sinus infection, respiratory infection or the flu

• certain foods – such as chocolate, cheese, cured meats, and food containing MSG (monosodium glutamate)

• caffeine

• hot weather

• periods

• motion sickness

• unhealthy eating habits – overeating, not eating for long periods or eating just before bedtime

• physical exhaustion or too much exercise

• sleep deprivation

CVS tends to occur in childhood, with around half of those affected having symptoms before the age of three.

CVS often clears up by adulthood but can sometimes continue into it.

Children who get migraines and are sensitive to light and sound are more likely to develop CVS. Having a family history of migraines also increases your risk.

Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is a rare disorder that mainly affects children. It causes repeated episodes of vomiting and feeling sick.

CVS has no apparent cause – the vomiting episodes aren't the result of an infection or illness.

It can be frightening, but it's possible to manage CVS with lifestyle changes and medication. It usually clears up before adulthood.

Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome (CVS) is a condition in which a person suffers from severe attacks of nausea and vomiting. CVS was first noted by Samuel Gee in 1982. Although a long time has passed, doctors are still unable to determine what causes CVS. Adults and children are equally vulnerable to this condition -- which is periodic. However, treatments are available for CVS sufferers. This application outlines the causes for CVS, what is CVS and possible treatment options.
