I was just thinking this and I didn't realize these other symptoms were happening.

Your pup needs a bile acid test as soon as possible (hopefully tomorrow).
This would explain the symptoms.

If it is his liver, the protein could be making him feel horrible and he would associate that feeling with all food...
