Cyclic vomiting syndrome prognosis
Prognosis of Cyclic vomiting syndrome: quality of life, limitations and outlook, from research and from people who live with it.
The exact prognosis for cyclic vomiting syndrome is unknown and varies from patient to patient. At this stage, the oldest known person in our Facebook support groups is 65 years of age and was diagnosed at the age of 60. Generally the CVS warriors we have lost due to complications of CVS vary from the ages of 30-45 years of age.

It varies from person to person. It can be chronic for months or years then disappear. People have had no episodes for ten or more years and then suddenly, it comes back. It's a condition that you just have to learn to live with as you will always have it. You just have to find what manages it for you. It's a bit of a crap shoot!

CVS is a chronic condition. Some children outgrow the vomiting episodes and their symptoms turn into traditional migraine symptoms. It at times can be worse or better. Medications, supplements, avoidance of triggers and behavioral therapy can also assist in getting better.

Life expectancy is normal as long as the symptoms are treated. It's a chronic condition.

It is chronic. It can change a lot during a life time. If you manage to find a working treatment for you, working medication, and learn about your triggers, it can be much better

CVS is a Chronic Illness. Children can grow out of it but that's not always the case. Adults can go into remission but usually it will eventually return. CVS tends to get worse as the condition progresses through adulthood.
