    Does your son have IBS? Shortness of breath could be as a result of stress and the pain. IBS can cause a lot of stress.

    Hey michelle ,

    Sorry to hear about that, It is very painful to see if our kid is suffering.

    what is his age?

    As kids can have whole different kinds of problem than adults.

    Did he have any specific tests?
