What Causes Chronic Vomiting And Weakness In The Legs?

My husband, 49yrs old, approx. 250lbs came home from work Friday, Dec16 sick, vomiting (I was at work) I brought home Gatorade. He didn t was weak & staggering on Saturday, Dec 17 no vomiting. He didn t eat much he would drink the water & Gatorade he did eat some toast w/ butter which stayed down. Sunday, Dec 18 was up vomiting the next morning. Monday, Dec 19 no vomiting still Gatorade, water & toast. Tuesday, Dec 20 I called the life squad, (EMS checked his blood sugar, which was a little high at 207) to take him to the ER (I knew I couldn t handle him had he gone down). At the ER they took his blood did an CAT scan. Nothing showed on the scan & infection barely registered in the blood. They gave him IV fluids for dehydration & Benydrel, which they said it would help him sleep. However, now as of today Tuesday, Dec 27 he is still somewhat weak, his right leg is weaker than the left and his right eye is blurry. Could there be some under-lying that could be prolonging this? It worries me because he has missed a lot of work I m praying he hasn t lost his job.
