Stomach aches

[melleemac]

One of my little guys has been having alot of stomach aches. A couple of weeks ago I found out from his brother that he hadnt been taking his creons at school. Since then his brother has been supervising him during lunch and snack times at school. I kept him home all of last week, mainly to make sure that he was taking them properly which he did. He seems to wake up on a morning with a stomach ache and then it gradually wears off around 10am. Ive tried giving him an extra creon with his meals and it doesnt make a difference. Any input, anybody!
Thanks
Mel

Might need an adjustment is his enzymes-or-
keep in mind school age kids skipping their enzymes is so so common-I did it too! But, if he's been skipping he could very likely be developing a blockage. When I was little, my cf doc said to my mom, blockages are caused by 3 things: 1.skipping enzymes, 2.skipping enzymes, and 3.skipping enzymes. Trying to prove a point to me!!

So, I'd have take him in, have an xray of the tummy done. That can sometimes tell if a blockage is building. Hope not, but better to catch it early if so!
