Poor doll, nothing worse then feeling yucky, huh?

Do you know what you have been tested for? My best friend always had stomach pains and after her mom pushed she found out at a young age she had really bad acid reflux. I also had stomachaches all the time and just recently I was diagnosed with food allergies (I'm 28!). Tell your mom that you know there is something wrong and that you want her to help you find the answer. I'm sure she will help and be forceful at the doctor to help you get the answers you need.

Here is a lesson for you- sometimes you have to be pushy to get the help you need. There has to be something that is causing your problems. Stomach problems are no good and can cause all sorts of other issues. I would definitely sit down with your mom or dad and talk to them and say I really feel bad nothing seems to be working and I really want some help. Remember, your parents are there to help you and they will as long as you ask.

I have asked many times

Hello can someone help me

You have what appear to be classic symptoms of IBS (irritible bowel syndrome), nighttime is the worst.
There are many sites on the Web that can give you more information on how to cope with it. One product that I've heard works wonders on IBS is something called Bowtrol, I've known several people who suffer from this and said it has helped them tremendously. Check with your doctor and see if he or she would see if that is right for you.
Best of luck to you, Olivia. Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks they've tested me for it giving me medicine for it it worked for a bit and then stopped working

SpawnOfAzazel · Aug 3, 2007, 10:07 PM

What did they give you?

graypaw300 · Aug 3, 2007, 10:08 PM

That same thing I think does it dissolve in your mouth?

SpawnOfAzazel · Aug 3, 2007, 10:13 PM

That would be a homeopathic remedy - they look like tiny sugar pills or tablets. Bowtrol is available over the counter and comes in the form of capsules.

Oh did I mention that I feel nauseus at night and sometimes during the day and I'm petrified of throwing up

I've had stomach problems for months and someone suggested to avoid all wheat products, there is a disease (I forget the name) where you become alergic to gluten (found in flour and wheat products) and can cause the symptoms you mentionned.

This is often mis-diagnosed as IBS, I've cut all gluten products for a week and feel a lot better, I was having the same problems you mentionned.

graypaw300 · Aug 3, 2007, 10:40 PM

I've tried taking wheat and suger out (I could eat fruit) it didn't help NOHINGS working *cry*

Coeliacs disease.

You need to be tested for this-go back to the doctor/parents and push the issue-the disease can harm your intestines if you let it continue..

Cheers

You could be celiac or simply have a wheat allergy( I happen to have the just the wheat allergy - thank god). But this allergy is terrible to your body. It can give you body aches and cause horrible headaches called migraines. It makes your tummy puff and causes awful stomach pains.

However the allergy is nothing to mess around with. If you do have celiac disease is can rip holes inside of your intestines its nasty disease.

Kiddo - could you show your mom or dad this thread? Maybe print out and tell them that you went online to try and find help?

graypaw300 · Aug 5, 2007, 04:55 PM

Sure thanks for the help
