Just to start this is very long!
Hi my daughter has been having lots of problems with her stomach and bowels with also unrelated symptoms. We started off at the GP having her weighed as she wasn't gaining weight and was always tired. Blood tests came back clear of allergies and no annemia.
She was having episodes of illness every 8 weeks which got more frequent to every 2 weeks so our GP finally referred us to the hospital. I wanted to see a specialist gastro doctor but was told it wouldn't be needed.
In these episodes of illness she has a raging temp, sickness but it is undigested food even if she's not eaten for days, diarrhoea and constipation within the same day, really bad stomach pains and her knees and legs become so sore she can hardly walk.
The hospital doctor started her on domeperidone and omeperazol which significantly improved her condition and she had no more episodes of illness she gained 1.5 stone in three months and finally looks healthy as she is extremely tall for her age (4) however after three months he reviewed her and told us to stop taking the medication and. Within a week she started again with the same things so we went back to the GP who restarted medication and within the week she was fine again.
So now you have the back story do any of you have any suggestions to what it could be and how to approach the doctor for a second opinion and to finally do some actual tests on her to solve the problem.
