Could Recurring Chest Pain With Nausea In A Child With All Tests Being Normal Be Due To Acid Reflux?
My six year old son is complaining of chest pain and is nauseated. We ve spoken with his doc about it before when it was related to his high activity in sports. She thought he was just getting dehydrated perhaps. It happened again a few days ago and she had a CBC, thyroid, and comp panel done on him. All his labs came back normal so she has set us up with a cardiologist. However, it happened again tonight. I m curious if it could be acid reflux? We did eat spaghetti for dinner and the previous time he ate pineapple in the morning-twenty mins prior.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your details. Other tests being normal, even cardiac evaluasion is to be normal. The investigation is just for clearing the doubt. Acid reflux is one possibility. Anxiety and obsession are second. You may consult a psychologist for counseling after the cardiologists clean chit.
