How about trying something more "carby" like crushed soda crackers, some cheerios or some other cereal. Carby/starchy stuff will help settle the stomach and she'll digest it much more quickly than a protein or fruit/veggie.

Btw, I do think dehydration can cause vomiting - I'm a runner and have experienced it. And, if you've ever attended marathons and/or competitive running - they get extremely dehydrated and vomit after races. Also, diarrhea can affect the whole system and can cause nauseousness, interestingly enough.
No she wasn't tested because they didn't think fasting her for that long was very safe - she is still only 1.15 lbs. I inquired about doing it even before her last little episode though and would really like to know-but I'm torn about what is the right thing for her?
She is actually running around now like normal...but hasn't eaten any more than the licking off my finger ?? I continue to give her nutrical though, and she doesn't like that either
Do you suggest syringe feeding her water in case of dehydration then?
