My 8 year old daughter has moderate GERD per upper GI series and has been on Prilosec for two weeks. She continues to has persistent bloating and pain in upper mid stomach just below sternum. It is worse post walking bending and after eating. Doc thinks it may be gastroparesis viral induced. why is her stomach so tender to pressure and touch and how long could this last?
You must do endoscopy to know the cause of this tenderness but until do that keep taking good proton pump inhibitors and eating soft food
