Ask the doctor what is going on. It's probably just a side effect of the med that they have her on.

Metoclopramide increases the rate at which the stomach and intestines move during digestion. It also increases the rate at which the stomach empties into the intestines and increases the strength of the lower esophageal sphincter (the muscle between the stomach and esophagus).
Metoclopramide is used to treat diabetic gastric stasis (slow movement of the stomach), which causes symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, heartburn, decreased appetite, and prolonged fullness after eating. It is also used to treat gastric reflux or heartburn (the regurgitation of stomach acid into the esophagus), prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting, prevention of nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy, facilitation of small bowel intubation, and to facilitate x-ray examination of the stomach and intestines.

I have my nursing drug book out and these are all adverse affects of the drug. My book is telling me to report vomitting associated with cancer chemotherapy to your physician. Her dosage may be too high.
