suffering from severe vomiting

Resolved question:

I am 52 years old and now have been suffering from severe vomiting. I am getting lower blood sugar levels at times. But is the vomiting due to low sugar level? I heard that this can also happen when pressure drops and if any problems occur with thyroid. I am in a state of frustration. Please help me to get out of this, as soon as possible.
