What Do you think could be????!


Question:

What Do you think could be????

My 12 year old daughter is suffering for abdominal pain around the navel area. The Doctors has made her different test, like X Rays, Ultrasound and blood., and everything seems to be normal. She was taking prevacid and dycyclomine for antiacid and pain, but sometimes it worked and others times no . We were thinking that it could be an anxiety, caused from the stress in the school, but now she is in vacations and still has the same problem . These pains are not frecuently.
I request your suggestions and opinions........ Thanks.

Soparamen, gracias por integrarte a mi pregunta, y consideraré tu experiencia, y creo que algo tendrá que ser, pero si pienso que el stress y la anxiedad juegan un papel importante en nuestra salud. Preferiría ser yo quien estuviera ese dolor y no ella, yo se sobrellevarlos, pero mi hija al parecer va a tener que aprender a lidiar con todo tipo de situaciones, sobre todo en la escuela., seguiremos en contacto y GRACIAS!


Answers:

Is she constipated? You can really get bowel spasms before you have to go.
Sometimes bowel spasms can happen even when you are not constipated. My daughter gets horrible abdominal pain sometimes. She gets easily constipated. They won't always admit it to you either, or really understand it. My daughter gets very pale looking, and say she doesn't feel good her abdomen really hurts and just lays on the couch looking so uncomfortable and sick. The cramps get so bad! She can't attend school when she gets like this. She now has been to Sick Kids Hospital for this. They say she has what they call a "Lazy Bowel".A pediatrician is always helpful,and she really needs to be honest about her bowel habits, because there are many natural things like "Senekot" she could take if she isn't going at least every other day. If this is what it is!
It can even be their diet or what they just ate. Lactose or gluten can be brutal for some people, and they don't even know they are intolerant until something like this comes along that the doctors can't figure out. They have awesome tests for available for those allergies.
I keep a heating pad handy for those days she is in pain it helps. Sometimes I even offer her an ice pack to preoccupy her.
Ibuprofen can cause abdominal pain too in some people so be careful.
I'm sure you already thought of this, but she is also at the age for her menstrual cycle...could it be pre menstrual cramps mine were worse mid month then when I was getting my period! I use to get them 7 days before my period, and then I would feel great ...and wham I got my period and I was crampy again until that was over.
I am so sorry she is going through this I sympathize for her and you! It is tough for all involved when you are trying to figure this out!
