My 15 Yo had has constant non stop stomach
pain for the last 2 months. She has had a
CT scan, colonoscopy, Xray and Endoscopy.
They did find Barretts esophagus, but said
that would not be causing non stop
stomach pain. At times it spasms worse
and its even more painful. It does not
get better if she eats, does not eat or
position wise. SHe has no other
symptoms, no nausea or diahrrea.
Went for a second opinion with a pediatric
gastro and he and our pediatrician think
its anxiety. She was on 20 mg prozac,
now just recently started on wellbutrin to
see if that helps.
She has missed school mostly for the 2
months and has a home tutor. We are
trying to get her back to school.
She says it can't be anxiety, she is not
nervous etc (she has has anxiety with
school in past, but never with stomach
issues like this). she has no other
stomach symptoms.
She has researched intercoastal neuralgia,
but we dont know much about it.
