My DD suffers with abdominal pain whenever she gets ill and has been diagnosed with Mesenteric Adenitis (lymph nodes in abdomen swelling caused by virus etc). However she seems to get stomach pain/nausea very easily and I'm starting to wonder if it is just the swollen glands causing the issue.
She has had to sit out on sports day a couple of times because some of the activities were making her tummy hurt/feel sick. She had to give up swimming lessons for the same reason. She is now wanting to give up her Jazz dance classes because they do stomach contractions and they really hurt her. She nearly threw up at the last lesson and was in tears when I picked her up. She has also been complaining that her feet hurt when landing on doing a certain type of leap they have to do. And the final thing, her dance teacher pointed out that when she puts her arms out to the side they over extend past her elbows (not sure how to describe this but sort of looks like she has wings in a child's drawing of a bird!). Her finger joints also crack when she bends them back. Been googling as wondered if there could be a connection between these things and Ehlers Danlos syndrome came up. Does this sound familiar to anyone who has this/have DC with this condition? Thanks
