The doctor had done nearby all the test of stomach and even had seen to neurologist+ dipression doctor too , nothing happened . The doctor had done - ct scan , mri , ultrasound, contrast test , endoscopy, video camera capsule test , and more other test I can't tell every name here .

​Hello. I have reviewed the extensive history of your mother's condition. ​It is deeply concerning that she continues to suffer from persistent vomiting despite undergoing such a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation. When standard tests like endoscopy and CT scans fail to provide a clear answer for chronic vomiting and bleeding, we must look into less common physiological or functional disorders. ​1. Potential Clinical Considerations ​Esophageal Motility Disorders: Since she vomits shortly after eating or drinking, a condition like Achalasia (where the lower esophageal sphincter fails to relax) or Distal Esophageal Spasm should be ruled out. These often require a High-Resolution Manometry (HRM) test, which measures the pressure and coordination of the food pipe. ​Vascular Abnormalities: The "small leakage" that causes bleeding could be due to Dieulafoy’s lesion or Gastric Antral Vascular Ectasia (GAVE), which are sometimes missed on standard endoscopies if not bleeding actively at the time of the procedure. ​Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome (CVS) or Gastroparesis: If the stomach does not empty properly (Gastroparesis), vomiting is common. A Gastric Emptying Study is the gold standard to confirm this. ​2. Next Steps in Diagnosis ​Esophageal Manometry: This is critical if not already done, as it evaluates the functional movement of the esophagus rather than just the structure seen on an MRI or CT. ​Repeat Endoscopy with Narrow-Band Imaging (NBI): This specialized light can help doctors see subtle vascular "leakages" that might be missed under normal light. ​Second Opinion - Motility Specialist: I recommend seeking a consultation with a gastroenterologist who specifically specializes in Neuro-gastroenterology and Motility. ​3. Supportive Care ​Nutritional Support: With such frequent vomiting, she is at high risk for electrolyte imbalances and malnutrition. Ensure she is being monitored for dehydration and consider discussing temporary liquid nutritional supplements that are pre-digested. ​Summary Advice: Since standard imaging and "depression" consultations have not yielded results, the focus must shift to the functional and mechanical movement of the GI tract. Please inquire with her current team at Medanta about performing a Manometry and a Gastric Emptying Study.

Since your mother has a persistent vomiting despite multiple tests, this needs a detailed reassessment of all previous reports. This cannot be managed without reviewing everything in detail.

​"I can understand how distressing it must be to see your mother go through this for over a year, especially when top-tier hospitals like Medanta are still investigating the root cause. Persistent vomiting shortly after eating or drinking, despite normal CT/MRI/Endoscopy results, often points toward a functional motility disorder or a rare condition like Achalasia Cardia (where the lower esophagus fails to open) or Gastroparesis (delayed stomach emptying). Since she has already seen neurologists and psychiatrists, we must also consider the possibility of Rumination Syndrome or a rare vascular compression like SMA Syndrome."
Next Steps
Since most routine tests are done, I suggest discussing these specific investigations with her medical team: ​Esophageal Manometry: To check the pressure and muscle contractions in the food pipe. ​Gastric Emptying Study: To see exactly how fast food leaves the stomach. ​Barium Swallow (Timed): To visualize the flow of liquid through the esophagus in real-time. ​Review of 'Leakage' History: Clarify what was meant by 'leakage'—if it was a small tear (Mallory-Weiss tear) due to vomiting or a structural diverticulum."
Health Tips
Until a definitive diagnosis is reached, try giving her small, frequent, semi-liquid meals instead of solid food. Keeping her upright for at least 2 hours after any intake can help gravity assist the passage of food. If she is losing weight rapidly, please discuss the possibility of temporary nutritional support (like a feeding tube) to maintain her strength while the diagnostic workup continues."
