Maximizing proper food intake

I apologize in advance if this thread is a tad "specific" & does not benefit anyone else.

Now my issue revolves around my stomach-problems & general health problems.

I have severe acid reflux, horrible gastrointestinal problems, & a myriad of other severe issues.
Due to this, I am unable to retain enough food for expendable energy, or a healthy weight-level.
Whenever I try to meditate, I get terrible headaches, my body becomes ice-cold & I start vomiting.
Whenever I close my eyes to try & calm myself, my body just goes ice-cold & I usually vomit (quite often blood).

I'm not sure if this is directly related to my health-problems, but it has reduced the 2 hours of meditation a day that I normally had, to less than 10 minutes of general agony.

My overall question; what are some foods which are easy to keep down & will provide me with enough energy to comfortably meditate?

Note: I have never eaten meat, nor plan to. So that is not an option, apologies.

    I don't mean to be rude, but this is definitely a question for a qualified medical expert, not a random Buddhist forum full of e-strangers. If your body is getting cold, you have bad headaches, and you vomit blood when you meditate, you seriously need to see a doctor immediately. That is not right.
