As per op...my ds2 was dx today with this. I had never heard of it before. We ended up in a and e last night and the Dr at first thought it was appendicitis.
Bloods ok and Dr (who I know and trust) dx him with AM. Tbh I googled it (I know, I know! :)) and he seems a textbook case.
We are giving him pain meds, and the Dr has said if it persists we can try a a migraine med, and has booked him in for an ultrasound of his tummy. So, I can't complain. He is being very thorough!
My questions are;
How do others manage this re school and
Re trips and holidays?
Ds2 is only 6 and has had a bad time recently with his health (had an adenotonsilectomy last year) and I dont want him to get upset or worried.
It's awful seeing him in such pain :(
One thing I have done is ordered some sick bags from Amazon 
thought these might come in handy when out and about and on hols?
Thanks for any advice you can give.
