“He got a shot for anti nausea and some antibiotics. The next day I only fed him boiled chicken and white rice. With 12 hours you could tell he was feeling much better. By that afternoon we put him back on his dog food. He was fine for a day but then this morning was sick 3 times after his breakfast. I’m worried now it’s his food. Has anyone else experienced this?”

That was too soon to go back to a regular diet. Check with your vet but from my experience the dog should be on a bland diet for 7 to 10 days, then gradually add kibble and transition back.

I would consider a prescription/therapeutic diet if his symptoms continue.

Also more diagnostic testing may be indicated, there may be something else going on (not diet related) Was pancreatitis ruled out?
