Re: [Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome] teeth question

my little girl also has cvs and has had it since the age of 6 months. She also
has problems with her teeth due to the bile. But her pediatrician says that due
to the fact that they are only her baby teeth there is nothing to worry about.

CVS since she was 6 mo's old , every 5 weeks like clockwork....vomiting 40 to 50
times a day prior to Zofran which cuts it to about 10 to 15 ....she also now
takes Ativan during an episode which just knocks her out so she doesnt have to
deal with it , also helps a little with the vomiting....she also wakes up okay
but does have some residual dizziness for a day ....she gets symptoms of dizzy
espisodes during it ( does anyone else have this?) ......anyway I was worried
about her throat for irritation from all of that bile ( where does all of that
vomiting keep coming from in those little bodies?) so we had a endoscopic
procedure done ( she had been doing excessive throat clearing on and off ) but
there was no damage , thank god .....her teeth seem to be okay , although have
whitish spots on them......I wouldnt worry about having them rinse during it ,
they are so non functional , why add yet another thing
to their misery??? Just deal with it
afterwards.....it isnt every day afterall.......Sarah will take sips of water
during it , not that she can keep it down but she wants it.......okay ....good
luck....

I just had a question, what do others on this list think about the
excessive vomiting and teeth issues? I am getting increasingly
concerned about my 5yr old daughter's teeth deteriorating in relation
to the excessive vomiting. She vomits lots of bile, and I am
concerned it is eroding her teeth. My sister had a lot of vomiting
in her childhood, and has terrible teeth problems that the dentists
call "bulimics teeth", because it is what bulimics often have
problems with from so much vomiting.

Anyway, I am going to try to get my daughter (5yrs) to rinse her
mouth out after every vomit next time, but I think that will be hard
considering how many times she vomits, and her unresponsiveness when
she does.

Interesting! I agree, at least they are the baby teeth, but you need to protect the baby teeth so that the new teeth grow in correctly, that is why I was...

Jen, Zofran works best given as soon as you see symptoms that your daughter is going into a cycle. It could even abort the cycle. Possibly. I have no...

Thanks for that. I think you are right, it will be too hard for her to rinse her mouth during an episode. Imogen also sips water during the episode, which...
