Suggest Remedy For Pain In The Upper Stomach Area

I have an almost 3 yearold daughter who for most of her life has had some type of tummy issues. She has seen an gastro doc once who did blood work and found her thyroid was high so she sent us to an endo doctor and in December of 2010 she quit the meds and quit seeing him as a result from him saying she dosent need it any more. We have been fighting with constapation issues with her forever. She is on Benafiber twice a day. She does not go every day but at least once every three days mabey. Now since Wed of last week 6-15-11 she has been complaining of her tummy again she pooped on sat. she has not had a very good appetite she is a picky eater. and when I ask her where her pain is she points to her upper tummy area just under her ribcage on her right side. Now I wouldn t think that would have anything to do with the pooping area. I took her to the backup doctor at her clinic today and all I got was lets see how she does by friday and the drew blood for her thyroid levels again. Is thier anything else that can be done? She is completly normal other wise. she will play laugh and carry on then she will just stop and cry saying her tummy hurts. we will relax for a while i might give her some mylacon drops then she will be fine for a little while again before complaining again. I am at my wits end. Should I demand more tests be done? Thank you
