My 17 year old daughter has been suffering with recurring symptoms for almost 2 years now. At first the "episodes" were occurring about every 4 to 6 weeks. Now the "episodes" are coming weekly and last 2 to 3 days. Here are her symptoms--extreme nausea and stomach pains, extreme fatigue, body aches and sometimes headaches. Normally she does not have vomiting. When the symptoms hit, she cannot function. She cannot sleep at night and she stays in bed all day. She is missing 2-3 days a week from school almost weekly. Between "episodes" she is fine. We have had an endoscopy of her stomach and ultra sound of her gall bladder---all was fine. She has been tested for metal allergies (she had spinal fusion surgery at age 12 and has metal rods and screws in her back)--negative. He CBC came back with her C reactive proteins high--over 12. She has also been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. We have seen 5 different doctors! What could this be.
