Question
What are the reasons for vomiting after eating?
Answer
A patient was brought to the hospital by their parents after suddenly experiencing delusions of food poisoning and subsequent vomiting without any conscious symptoms. After one and a half years of treatment, the condition was controlled, with only occasional unease and transient insomnia before naps. The patient inquired about medications that could help with complete recovery and how long the medication needed to be taken. However, drugs (especially traditional Chinese medicine) are generally considered to have no side effects and are harmless to the body. Based on the patient’s symptoms, the possibility of schizophrenia cannot be ruled out. Schizophrenia is a brain disorder caused by various factors, leading to abnormal psychomotor function, with common symptoms including auditory hallucinations, suspicion, disorganized thinking, difficulty in speech and writing comprehension, emotional instability, excitement, sadness, anxiety, tension, fear, apathy, and retardation.
