Sick with worry though I am about my Ted, I'm in tears over Brodie. The vomiting sound too extreme for allergies, but then I'm not a DVM. Can you take him to a specialist center? Are you thinking of an ultra-sound? The barium could have flowed past an obstruction since Brodie eats sometimes and doesn't throw up, and he poops. An obstruction can move around and cause blockage and irritation sometimes, and then move away into a less obstructive position. Obstructions don't show up well on x-rays, as others have posted, that's why they can become dire emergencies. In your position, I'd go to a specialist or demand an ultra-sound. Actually, an ultra-sound will probably mean they will need to call in a specialist or you take Brodie to one. One of my vets is good at reading them, the other says he is not, but they still encouraged me to pay for a radiologist in attendance.
We are all rooting for Brodie, he HAS to get better.

I'd also request an ultrasound and hopefully this will be able to find the cause of his vomiting. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way. Please take care.
