Is it easy to find a partner and/or maintain relationship when you have Cyclic vomiting syndrome?
Relationships and Cyclic vomiting syndrome: real patients share how diagnosis affected dating and partnership.
The important thing to remember with maintaining a relationship with this illness, or in any case is of course communication. Sometimes you will feel like a burden on your partner, sometimes your partner may be upset or frustrated not knowing what else they can do to help. You need to stay open and honest with each other and remember that you both just want what is best for the other out of love. You will have your good and bad days with this illness, but together you'll be able to get through.

You will definitely need a partner who is very caring and nurturing. CVS is very isolating as it's difficult at times to even speak during episodes. It's not for the faint of heart! Your partner will have to be supportive and loving. Also, a lot of people out there get nauseous just being around someone who is vomiting, so it's worth it to mention your CVS to any new prospects, just in case!!!

CVS can be straining on a relationship but most people are able to keep relationships. It is important to find someone who will be compassionate during episodes and understanding of sudden changes in plans should an episode strike.

Find someone that likes a quiet life. Someone that likes to stay home and curl up on the couch. Someone nurturing and understanding. That would hold your hair while you vomit. Someone who will hold your hand through it all. Just need to find someone who is understanding.

Not so easy, but possible. A partner must accept the illness

Not Really you have to find a special person to stand by you with this illness. It's very taxing on relationships.

Definitely it is essential to inform the couple of this condition, because the more informed we find the other person, the better you will know if you want to stay or not at the side of the affected patient.
Here the only thing that is key is to have patience and from the course that we are not obligated to be with someone. And that our happiness is not dependent on someone else .
