So sorry for you and little Tazzie. I am amazed the vet isn't doing more to help.
My little dog had eye surgery recently and afterwards developed vomiting and gastric issues (not as extreme problems as you have) The internist said it was due to esophagitis/gastritis from acid stomach during/post surgery. This can lead to stomach ulcers and bleeding in some cases. He was given Reglan, (nausea, motility), Sucralfate (to coat stomach/ulcers) and Cerenia (very good for preventing nausea and vomiting). All these meds very quickly cured the stomach issues when he was FINALLY put on them! It took some time to figure out it was a real problem!! He was also eating Iams Intestinal/Low residue.
Hope he is feeling better now and all this is not needed! We pray it is not Parvo!
