    Advice please?
    My daughter has been having problems whit her stomach for five to six years she's now 13. The pediatration has blown it off for years an wanted to put her on anxiety mends. I'm a naval corps and finally stopped taking to her to her pediatric Doctor. Just for the fact he thinks everything is anxiety. I made an appointment with a gastroenterologist she took an X-Ray and wanted her to do a GI prep. The X-Ray showed extended bowels. I ask for a swollowing study and the doctor refused. Just like her pediatration.. After the GI prep her colon was still distended and she can only eat a part less then half of a fast food burger and she is full. I told both doctors this and they blew it off as anxiety. I asked for a upper Gi a lower gi and again a swollowing study. Because I have treated patients with this same problems. Her intestines were so linflaimed and distended food couldn't get out of her stomach. Finally after many years the pain has increased to the point of tears. The swollowing was positive showing only 25% of what ever she eats leaves her stomach in four hours. By then it should be empty. So the diagnosis of gastroenteritis was given. I'm a two tour corpsman with the marines in desert shield / Storm and Iraq .. I have read your alls post and did research finding this could be related to my my gulf war syndrome I'm 100% disabled because of all the problems I'm having. How do I inquire at the va and what if anything will they do?
