help dd still has nausea 1 month after being sick any ideas

[raphael7]

hi my dd (9)was sick a month ago for 24hrs about 12 times. since then she has felt nauseous. she is startin to feel very poorly. she has had an injury which is takin time to heal and about 3 weeks before she was sick she just finished 6 weeks of nurofen. very worried what is wrong. she has seen a doc who has given her medicine to help her get her poos regular and some antacid medication retitidine (?) do u think it could still be a bug or she has hurt herself when she was sick takin her for an eye test tomorrow. any ideas or anyone whose dc has had something similar x

hi anyone x

There is a lingering stomach bug around. My stomach hasn't been right for 10 days, but a month is a very long time.

6 weeks on nirofen could have caused an ulcer or preulcerous condition. That tends to be painful though. If it that ranitide won't be strong enough. Ask the doctor about losec (omperazol) but I am not sure about it's use in children.

I hope she feels better soon.

thank u aubergine x eye test was fine she has no pain (thankfully) just the nausea. would she have pain with a preulcerous condition. anyone else had the stomach bug that has lasted x

only when i came back from holidays with a tummy bug. Had pain and nausea for 2 months.

The ibuprofen(nurofen) could have upset her bowels. Did you give it on a full or empty tummy and did you give it just before going to sleep.

always on a full tummy breakfast lunch dinner. would being full in the bowels cause queasyness? doc said she was a bit congested.

yes it can give you nausea ,a temperature and make you feel quite out of sorts when you are constipated. Has he given you anything to unbung her?

hi she has retitidine 2x a day 5ml and movida (not sure on spelling) pediatric plain 1 sachet to help her go to the toilet yesterday 3 times 2day she went 1 time so will carry on for a little while but she is still feeling queasy but not as much. just have to wait x

I am really worried bout her and dont know how long i should wait til goin back to doc/consultant she has been on medicine since monday.

dd came home from school suddenly felt nauseous at school and had a tremendous headache came home and went straight to bed woke up bout 2hrs later better took her to docs he said cant find anything how unusual. any ideas please

anyone for the last two days she has had a couple of times where she has tightness in her chest. it is a side effect of her medicine but could it also be indegestion - so weary can contact consultant on monday. any ideas she has been on the medicine for 10 days previous symptoms nausea for 4 weeks now 6 x

any ideas running out of things ot try

she is still feelin nausea dont know if it is physical or anxiety she doesnt seem anxious at all but is feeling nausea at odd times of day and when we talk about it she gets it - obviously trin not to talk about it any experience anyone?
she is now only takin redetitine (not sure of spellin) 5ml in evening x

she is still feeling nausea and its nearly january does anyone have experience of gerd in 9 year old x

Last time my eldest son complained of persistant nausea it was due to threadworms. I suffered from it was well and it wasn't until the penny dropped and I treated both of us that the nausea went.

oh thank you. how would i know she hasnt been complaining of an itchy bum tho. is that a sign? x

raphael ~ i'm not saying it is this but bear in mind inflammatory bowel disease such as crohns disease which can cause nausea,weight loss and fatigue as well as stomach aches and fever and aches and pains ~ keep an eye on her weight and ask her about diarrhoea as well.
It is difficult to diagnose at first and there can be a delay in diagnosis so keep it in mind ~all the best.

should have said stay away from nurofen etc as they can cause nausea.

thank you. it just seems to be nausea at the moment. she has not had the nurofen tabs since september - it was a 6 week treatment for her pain in her feet - i havent given it to her since - im worried it has hurt her. thank you labyrinthine for your comments x

its now 2 and 1/2 months any other ideas - it doesnt seem to be ringworm x

bumping dont know what to try goin back to hosp sat 16th she nausea most evenings x

My DD had a bug with sickness and vomitting on and off for ages a few years ago. We went to the GP a few times and the final one we saw told us that some bugs can leave you temporarily lactose intollerant. We put her on a strict lactose (dairy) free diet for a while and it did the job. Might be worth a try.

thank you so much. my neice said could be it im just worried she has an ulcer because she was on 200mg ibroprufen tabs for 6 weeks from august to sept and she is only 9 - im so worried it has hurt her x

she started to become quite hyperactive and blinking lots takin her off the ranititidine for awhile worried about her she getting headaches every day and yesterday her eyes rolled talk to doc tomorrow

hi. its been a year and everything has been ok but for the last two weeks my dd2 has again been acting very hyperactive, moving etc and has started to tic again, she has just had a sore throat so I dont know if it has anything to do with a strep infection. I am so worried she has been grimacing, rolling eyes and cant keep still....any help, ideas
