Hi Kerri,My name is Wanda,I am the single parent of a 4 year old,who name is
Patrick,and we live in Saskatoon,SK. I am a stay at home mom also.I was reading
your story,and my son started vomting at 18 months old also.After many hospital
visits,and an operation to remove his gallbladder and zapping his many
gallstones.(this past Dec.2002) After a diagnosis of Abdominal Migraines,because
he would vomit and fall fast asleep,and sleep for ever after. The vomiting be
came extremely bad.On March 4th, he started vomiting and proceeded to vomit for
24 hours.His gastro. spec. then said it was CVS.So here we are,with a defintive
diaagnosis. And it is blessing to know finally what is going on with my son.I
still have moments of panic, thinking that tonight is the night. His doc gave
me a letter,stating what he has, and how to treat it.So, when I take my son to
the E.R.I hopefully won't run in to many problems the next time we go.Feel free
to ask me questions also. Wanda,Patrick's mom

I hope everyone has a great mother's day.
Finding these groups and an answer is the best mothers day present for me!
I'll start by introducing myself...Just joined this group, I am a married, 27 yr
old stay at home mom of two small boys, who lives in Ontario, Canada. I enjoy
many many things in life, but knitting is my main passion right now. My son
Malcolm, who'll be four in a month, since he was 18 months old had unexplainable
vomiting bouts once a month. It was very sudden then and then he'd sleep
afterwards. Then a while later it was once every three weeks, and now it's been
every two weeks for the last three months, with it being more violent and
painful for him now.
He also has diahrea pretty much every day also. I've been to numerous dr's with
him and got the "he looks really healthy, so what's your problem??" And one
"he'll grow out of it" (all of these dr's only were talking about the diahrea,
none talked about the vomiting). Well I finally had enough and was able to find
a dr around here (very hard to find one here!) and he is sending him for a
stomach ultrasound. He doesn't think anything will show up, and mentioned
looking up on the net on migraines. (My husband and my father both get them
from time to time.)
Anyway, that's when i happened on CVS and I am so happy. I am positive this is
it, it explains the one question i always had (Why are they so patterned if it
was nothing big??) never made sense.
I am really worried about how close they are going to get together before they
stay at that "pattern". I feel so horrible for him, but I am so glad to know
there are others going through the same thing. I would love to hear other
stories...I still have many questions about this as i just figured it out
recently. Hope to hear from you all.
Kerri
