I am CVS

Most likely you don't know me, unless you are one of hundreds and maybe thousands that suffer everyday because of me. I affect thousands not only the ones I attack but the ones that are the Caregivers, i disrupt life,I destroy social lives, i don't kill, i do something much worse.I make people vomit uncontrollably for hours and even days, leaving people gasping for air between vomiting.I hide in the darkness, attacking in the early morning hours.You can't find me, no test can find me, and only my past tells you who I am.I don't care who i attack; i attack infants, children, and adults.I tear apart families; I control people’s lives, many times to the point where they have to be taken to the hospital.I disrupt children’s schooling, i can last for hours or days and sometimes weeks at a time, i put people through cycles maybe once a year, maybe 4 times a year, sometimes once a month even to the point of 2 or 3 times a week.Doctors don't know me, but I have been around since the late 1800's i am called rare, But people find out about me daily. I’ am normally not found for 4 or 5 years and its not uncommon for a person i attack not to find out who i am for 10 or 15 years.I am Evil, for i don't kill but torture people for years on end.I may leave for a while, but i normally find my way back to you.You most likely don't know me, but chances are you know someone i attackI cost thousands of dollars in medical care and testing every year.The people i control fear me, they know that in the darkness i will come again.I am an invisible disorder that is a disability just as much as the visible disabilities.Maybe you do know me, I am Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome or CVS.I don’t kill i do worse, I may stay with you the rest of your life.
