Suggest Cause For Mid Epigastric Pain

My 8 year old boy is c/o waves of extreme mid-epigastric pain, no fever, 4 hours post-prandial. His heartbeat is also very irregular, brady-cardic at the same time. I am tossing about whether to take him to the ER or to watch in case it is only a bug.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Your 8 year old complaining of epigastric pain. and you feel there is change in the heart beat, it may be due to the anxiety.
But for pain you should consult a doctor for pain relief, to prevent the hike in the midnight.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ranitidine, domperidone, and antacid gel.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
