need answers for my daughter

My youngest daughter has been having right abdominal pain, along with not being able to keep any solid foods down. She cant even keep broths down. Everything she eats comes right back up within 10 minutes of her eating. This has been going on since the end of January.  She has been seen by a gynocologist, and a gastroentologist. She has been cleared of having appendicidis, cleared of pid. She has had an upper gi done and it came back normal, she has had a ct done, which didnt show anything. She has had ultrasounds done, they have come back normal. She has had a hide a scan done and it came back normal.
I dont know what else to do and wish that i could help her. I cant stand to see her hurting and not able to eat anymore. I need some help please. What is wrong with her???

Did she have a 4 hour emptying scan or a 2 hour one?  For a 2 hour one, 49% is okay, but for a 4 hour test, 49% is not good.  I would ask about an endoscopy for her.

You should ask the doctors about a gastric emptying study to check for gastroparesis.  Have her bowel movements been normal?
