Almost this exact same thing happened to me but mine only lasted 6 weeks. Doctors couldn't figure it out. I was so thirsty from not being able to drink anything. Lost about the same amount of weight as you in the same time frame. My arms looked like heroin addict's from all the poking the doctors did trying to find my veins. Needed cancer treatment grade anti nausea meds just to slightly reduce the vomiting.
