Bleeding Ulcer!! Need some advice PLEASE!!!!

By omahadarrin Sunday, February 13, 2011

My 14 year old daughter, who is diabetic, has been experiencing severe abdominal pain and stomach related problems since December 25, 2010 and has been admitted to the E.R. twice and has seen her regular pediatrician twice.  All of them have done full blood panels testing everything including liver, gall bladder, kidneys and all results are fine. Her symptoms include increasing complications with maintaining solid foods in her system and stomach.  She vomits what every she eats and spotty signs of blood have shown up in the blood.  She finally has an appointment with a GI on Tuesday February 15 which was a huge undertaking to get scheduled.  Nobody seemed to be in a big hurry to get her recommended to a GI.  She not had a scope of the stomach yet which is what we hope to get done on Tuesday, but the GI has not confirmed that is what they plan to do?  Tonight, she is vomiting again, with severe pain and some spots of blood. It does no good to take her to the E.R. because the last time we were there, last Wednesday, all they did was give her morphine and did another panel of blood with the results no different.  Nobody either can't or won't diagnose the problem which I believe is an ulcer of some kind and I do not know what to do? I don't know what to do.  No one wants to help or doesn't know what to do. Please advise
