Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Child. Frequent Throwing Up. No Other Symptoms. History Of Separated Parents. Concerning?
My boyfriend has 3 young children that he has shared custody. My first concern with the oldest daughter who is 9, she throws up all the time, even when there really isnt any other symptoms. When shes at her moms, the mother informs the father of her throwing up. It doesnt happen as often at our house, but she misses a lot of school when she is with her mom due to vomiting. My second concern is over his youngest daughter age 5 who is constantly thirsty and always has to go to the bathroom. I teased her dad saying she just likes to see what all bathrooms look like but I'm concerned there may be something more to it.
I do not think it is something serious but it is that she could be having some allergies (probably food) at the home where she throws up frequently. Another possibility is that she might be suffering from a psychological disorder and you might need to take her to a pediatric psychiatrist. I also suggest you see a gastroenterologist as she might be suffering from a more serious medical condition even though she is presenting with no other symptoms. Well the youngest daughter is likely not having anything to worry about as she might just be having a habit of her own.

Child. Frequent Throwing Up. No Other Symptoms. History Of Separated Parents. Concerning?
Hello, thanks for posting on HCM, I do not think it is something serious but it is that she could be having some allergies (probably food) at the home where she throws up frequently. Another possibility is that she might be suffering from a psychological disorder and you might need to take her to a pediatric psychiatrist. I also suggest you see a gastroenterologist as she might be suffering from a more serious medical condition even though she is presenting with no other symptoms. Well the youngest daughter is likely not having anything to worry about as she might just be having a habit of her own. Hope this helps
