Hello, my daughter has had a severe stomach ache for the last week and a half! So severe that she's not wanting to eat....and she's my good eater! I took her to the dr in September and she said it was acid reflux but I'm just not 100% convinced that's all it is. She's literally over the toilet feeling like she's gonna throw up. She says she will have some diarrhea and then some hard bowel movements. No fever, anyone know what it could be before I take her to the doctor again?!

    A gastri enterologist would be a good idea. Has she had a ultrasound? An endoscopy?

      She has not had that. I was thinking gastritis or maybe an ulcer. I've called the dr and they are sending her for a lab work up

    She needs a specialist. If your regular doc says no, insist that he refer her to a gastroenterologist. I had these problems my whole life and was not diagnosed until I was 22 years old. This is not something to wait on if it's your child.
