Rachel was sick a few months ago...vomiting up EVERYTHING...the doctor wrote us a prescription for suppositories to stop it (and come to find out they're sold OTC...wish I'd known and saved the money from that dr trip LOL). As soon as she got the first one, the vomiting stopped, but we kept her on popsicles and Icees for a while...the only thing we could get her to drink with her throat hurting.
I agree about the suppositories! That was the only thing that helped me when I was having a gallbladder attack and the gallbladder test came back negative and they didn't know what was wrong with me.

Also, we just tried something my mil told me about...3 of us were sick with the flu and went to the pharmacy (one had it and one didn't) and bought Fleets Cola Syrup. It tastes like really thick Coca Cola without the bubbles. It did definitely help my stomach.

Crackers were the only thing I was able to keep down during the flu....but that was with using the cola syrup.

Good luck....I hope he gets better quick...
