pr40 Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 dd9 has frequent stomach pain. pain is not terrible but it occurs daily. she is on augmentin and zytromax, probiotics, and anti-inflammatories. when I gave her augmenting and zytro in the morning, pain was in the morning. When I switched zytro to evening, pain moved to evening. I am not sure if this is just a coincidence or not. Zytro is supposed to be easier on the stomch than augmentin. dd is on gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, and now corn-free diet. In short, I don't think it is diet. suggestion, please.

qannie47 Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 My non Pandas child has chronic stomach issues. I saw that you are already giving probiotics. What time of day are you giving it? If you are not already giving it in the am, I would try that. Perhaps it will lend the bulk of the digestive support when he is awake and eating?

sf_mom Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Have you done a comprehensive stools analysis on her? It could be yeast or low absorption. Enzymes would help with low absorption. Is she diagnosed with Bartonella? Bartonella can really root itself in the intestinal track. "Bartonellosis is generally suspected when neurological symptoms are out of proportion to other systemic, chronic Lyme disease symptoms. Patients may suffer with gastritis, lower abdominal pain, sore soles, and tender subcutaneous nodules along the extremities. Lymph nodes may be enlarged and accompanied by a sore throat. Additional manifestations may include:" - See more at: http://www.envita.com/lyme-disease/chronic-lyme-disease-coinfection-bartonella-causing-more-chronic-fatigue-problems#sthash.0iipuOuU.dpuf rowingmom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowingmom Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Can you switch the zytro back to the morning again and see if the pain follows? That doesn't sound like a coincidence to me. DD also had stomach pain, but I couldn't correlate it with anything. We tried elimination diets, GF/CF/SF, low oxalate, low histamine, everything. Nothing helped until we started bart abx. It went away within 2 days and has never returned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcmom Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 My dd also had stomach pain at onset, but it turned out to be OCD/anxiety/ pandas based, and went away with abx/ steroid treatment. Just FYI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoyBop Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Is it possible the medications are tough on the stomach? Are you making sure our child takes the harsher meds with food? I know Motrin can be very tough on the stomach. What does your dr say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pr40 Posted November 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 my first guess is zytro and I did stop giving it to her last night. it was the first evening in a while without pain. we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Anna Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 My DS used to complain a lot of stomach pain and we haven't heard that in a while. We did end up taking him off Azithromycin, because he was complaining of palpitations (interaction between Azithromycin and Diflucan).
