My boyfriend is 19... and something is very wrong with his health..
Here are a few of the symptoms I've noticed..
1. He has a lot of trouble breathing..
2. His heart races randomly..
3. He gets sharp pains in his stomach..
4. He vomits frequently..
5. His lips and tongue swell badly overnight
6. ...and lately he's been vomiting blood.
I can't get any answers online. I'm taking him to the doctor soon since he parents don't believe that anything is wrong with him (his dad and mom are both alcoholics). I just want to prepare myself for what the doctor might say. =0/
Any ideas? Online has given me nothing.
I understand none of you are doctors. I'm asking if anyone who has experience with this type of thing. Jesus

Let me just look at my medical books right under my degree from Medical School.
Oh yes, here it is. It says to see a doctor and don't ask a shitty forum full of idiots.

Really should take him to the ER right now, especially if he's vomiting blood.

If he's vomiting blood, he definitely needs to go to the doctor. No question.

Could he be frequently eating something he's allergic to without realising it ?

vomiting blood is horrible... on the account that there should be no blood whatsoever in the tubes between your mouth and stomach, and stomach itself...
all of those signs sound really serious.. you should take him to the doctor as SOOON as humanly possible. and if he doesnt have insurance im sure there is some type of federal aid he could get on, to at least help with medical bills.

I really would love to help you, honey, but the best advice I could possibly give you is to get him to a hospital, or at least a doctor, immediately!
Go to the emergency room. The boy is vomiting blood! You know it's serious, if his mother doesn't then you should take the initiative!
