I am taking my eight year old son to his doctor in two weeks, because he complains of tummy aches almost everyday. Poor kid! He averages two bowel movements a week - sometimes once a week. When he finally goes his tummy really hurts and it takes 20 to 30 minutes before his poop is all out. He tummy hurts for a good hour afterwards. Monday was a bad day for him. He said it felt like someone was taking a ball and pushing his ribs and back on his left side. I talk to his doctor's office yesterday about fiber supplements and his doctor said he wants to see him before perscribing fiber supplemnts. What kind of questions should I ask his Doctor? I know he should be checked for Celiac, but I'm not sure what else his Doctor should look for. Barb
