Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a 12 1/2 year old granddaughter who has been feeling ill for two weeks. It started with stomach pain (upper abdomen) and some loose stools. Her pedo though gastritis so she hasn t been on Maalox with no relief. The past three days she has been very weak, tired, headache and sore throat. Felt chilled but not known if she had a fever. Tonight she was taken to a pediatric urgent care. Basic labs were normal, rapid strep normal. Flu swab not done. Labs are being sent to check for mono and pancreas. Full strep screen also to be done. We are all so worried and feel so bad for her. She appears very ill. Any insight would be helpful. Thank you.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I suggest you take Pantoprazole and paracetamol at the same time and you may take paracetamol than as you need it. If pain does not go even with this, than have a consult to ER. Sometimes is difficult ta treat stomach pain, that is why are used both drugs I prescribed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
