Guest guest Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 a, There are so many different things that can cause these symptoms in our kiddos... One of the major things (which I am so thankful that we ruled out with Tyler) is food allergies. Not only can food allergies trigger off incredible stomach/intestine sensitivities, but the headaches are unbelievable!!! Yet, others without the allergies/sensitivities have the same problems. For some, it is sensory issues. My daughter has migraines triggered by visual over-stimulation, and along with the migraines comes incredible stomach cramps that cause her to throw up and have diarrhea. For others, it is major stress (which can also be caused by sensory issues, but can also be caused by social interactions, expectations, deviation in plans, etc) My AS son has more trouble with social anxiety/stress and it causes major abdominal pain and headaches when not identified and controlled... Others may have bowel problems or ulcers... My best friend's daughter has such incredible anxiety about school that it has caused IBS and an intestinal ulceration... So, yeah... they can have these symptoms, but sometimes it is kind of difficult to really nail it down unless you observe the circumstances surrounding it for a while... Good luck!!! ~hugs~ Rabecca From: " paula " <luvpotion69@...> Subject: overwhelmed....... you guys are so incredibly supportive , i just wanted to say thanks......also can anyone shed any light on my sons constant bad tummy an headaches??? he has had a bad stomache for as long as i can remember, he has also struggled thru school in pain too as the teachers havent really believed him to be genuine, i used to think it was put on but hes been refusing school now for 6mths and his tummy plays up just as badly, he feels sick with it too..... thanks, take care coz i do , paula x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
