I've been a pediatric nurse for years and I wish we lived somewhere close where I could see him and try to help you! It's hard to help over the Internet but it sounds like he needs to be seen by a pediatric neurologist.
When you say he has difficulty feeding, what do you mean exactly? That he can't latch on? sucking is weak? he refuses to suck? he gives up after a few seconds? he throws up immediately after? (not to be confused with a little spit up. I'm talking gusher.) does he have trouble swallowing? I assume you've tried various nipple types?
Is he gaining weight?
Keep in mind feeding problems are very common in infants and usually resolve themselves with no need for drastic medical intervention.
