What Causes Bed Wetting,fainting,headaches And Pain On Top Of Ribcage?
Hi, my 12 year old grandson has several symptoms that are disturbing. He wets the bed. Recently, on at least two occasions, when my son goes in to get him up to go the bathroom, he gets up and passes out. He has had headaches for several years, and now, tonight, he came in saying he had pains at the top of his rib cage on both sides. We have had several in our family with the hole between the top chambers of their heart. Could this be what he has? Thank you for your help, Joy

whole in heart chambers do not produce rib pain and just 2 occasions of going in is not an issue but constant bed wetting at this age has a matter of concern. try some alarms and not to drink any liquids after 7 PM could help initially; if fails a course of nasal minirin spray may be of help withe consult of pediatrician.
