Associated Conditions for Cyclic vomiting syndrome



Excerpts on associated medical conditions for Cyclic vomiting syndrome:

The relationship between migraine and CVS is still unclear, but medical researchers believe that the two are related. First, migraine headaches, which cause severe pain in the head; abdominal migraine, which causes stomach pain; and CVS are all marked by severe symptoms that start quickly and end abruptly, followed by longer periods without pain or other symptoms.

Second, many of the situations that trigger CVS also trigger migraines. Those triggers include stress and excitement.

Third, research has shown that many children with CVS either have a family history of migraine or develop migraines as they grow older.

Because of the similarities between migraine and CVS, doctors treat some people with severe CVS with drugs that are also used for migraine headaches. The drugs are designed to prevent episodes, reduce their frequency, or lessen their severity. (Source: excerpt from Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome: NIDDK)

About associated conditions for Cyclic vomiting syndrome:

Associated conditions are those which appear statistically related, but do not have a clear cause or effect relationship. Whereas the complications are caused by Cyclic vomiting syndrome, and underlying causes may be causes of Cyclic vomiting syndrome, the following list shows associated conditions that simply appear with higher frequency in people who have Cyclic vomiting syndrome. In some cases, there may be overlap between this list and risk factors for Cyclic vomiting syndrome. People with Cyclic vomiting syndrome may be more likely to get a condition on the list of associated conditions, or the reverse may be true, or both. Whether they are causes of, caused by, or simply coincidentally related to Cyclic vomiting syndrome is not always clear. For general information, see Associated Condition Misdiagnosis.
