8101930 tn?1420001456 I noticed that after his shots and today he has been pooping yellow colored like normal but it is very chunky. He is exclusively breast fed and always has a little bit of a seedy stool but this is very chunky. I'm Just curious if anyone knows if this is normal or not. Could it be from the rotavirus vaccine because they do ingest it. Thanks.
Avatar f tn I believe parasites, viruses, and bacterial overgrowth can all cause villi destruction. My mom recently recovered from a serious bout of Clostridium Difficile . This bacteria can destroy the villi.
Avatar f tn 5 lbs at her 1 year check up, she lost 1 1/2 lbs from rotavirus at admittance and upon discharge she weighed 18 lbs. A pediatrician who is a specialist thought she had celiac disease but testing came back negative. Her pediatrician asked to see her at 18 months to follow up. We followed up on October 8 and she still weighed 18 lbs, He did a panel of testing, which included the typical CBC's, Iron and then Diabetes, Thyroid Function, Growth Hormone Deficiency and a retest for Celiac.
Avatar n tn ve been through these with my 2 1/2 year old and some of them can take a very long time to clear. One that pops into mind is rotavirus. Fevers do not necessarily always accompany a virus. He should see a Dr. Also, make sure he is staying well hydrated. Food is less important then fluids. Juices, pedialight, even milk. Dehydration is always the biggest concern. Is he energetic or listless? That too can tell you alot. If he is listless and weak, then he should be seen right away.
Avatar f tn So if you have a type that is viral such as one caused by norovirus or rotavirus you could have a contagious type or a bacterial one like Clostridium difficile, Salmonella or Shigella pr Ecoli that has a toxin (not all strains have it). So you need to find out which one by having the doctor do some lab tests or telling you which one you have. The main thing is washing your hands well after using the toilet.

Avatar f tn I have been diagnosed with acute gastritis a year ago. And again this year, I have experienced an attack for the second time and was treated at the hospital. I took Maalox antacid for the first two days, but the more I take this medicine, the more often my stomach aches. My doctor said that it may be the medicine - Maalox that causes this pain, so he changed my medicine to geltazine capsule. Then this month, my son was diagnosed with the same - gastritis. he is just two years old.

1770029 tn?1325802355 Yes stomach flu seems to going around in most states children have had a lot this winter and it seems to recurr..it will pass ,drink plenty of fluids ..
Avatar f tn s hardheaded - but he smokes, and the nicotine had kept him from ever having any flare-ups. Today he had a follow-up colonoscopy, and the doctor seemed very shocked to find that my husband has absolutely NO signs of ever having the ulcerative colitis. Now we are wondering, was it actually something else mimicking the UC....or more specifically, could it have been a problem caused by something he was ingesting?
377493 tn?1356502149 My son was a low birthweight baby. He was term, but only 4lbs, 14oz due to placental failure. They still aren't certain what caused it, and probably will never know.the exact cause, but it is more common in older moms, which I was. He was born in the 3rd percentile for both height and weight. He had jaundice and issues with his blood sugar and spent 5 days in NICU. Since then he has been healthy with the exception of the normal virus' and bugs that children get.

Avatar m tn Measles shot at 9 mos is early, They give it here in a combo at 15 mos old. Measles Mumps rubella. I am not sure since you are in a different country and there is a greater risk for measles there. That may be why he is getting it at such a young age. I would talk it over with the MD and remember it is your child and if you do not feel right than go with what you feel. Hope this helps.
1346101 tn?1288051949 Please consult a physician as soon as possible and let him do a detailed examination. The above causes give you a clue what all systems could be involved. Best of luck and keep me posted.
Avatar f tn So I have my baby already but I am begging you all do research on vaccines before your baby arrives. I have my 8 week old girl and she just got her first set of shots and she's very sick after them she's been crying like never before her eyes are in so much pain her body gets so stiff. She has pooped at least 2 times every day since birth now she hasn't pooped since the vaccine it's been 4 days!!!!
Avatar n tn There is a lot of controversy about the Prevnar vaccine I suggest you do some research before you make a decision ..
175861 tn?1428182413 s been acting up for around 3 weeks-burpy, baggy feeling in throat-went to ENT and gastro and ENT said she thinks its gerd-she did a scope of my larynx and saw redness and post nasal drip (the latter of which ive had most of my life). The loose stools are more recent. The gastro doctor does not think the gerd and gastro symptoms are related. She thinks its IBS which hasn't really flared for over 10 yrs.
889551 tn?1416184483 Babies may be slightly more likely to be irritable, or to have mild, temporary diarrhea or vomiting after getting a dose of rotavirus vaccine than babies who did not get the vaccine. Rotavirus vaccine does not appear to cause any serious side effects.
Avatar n tn Background - Went to Mexico in beginning of may and came back with rotavirus (headache didn’t start until next month). On June 3rd, had a sudden headache started out of nowhere (not prone to headache) that gradually got worse through the day and days after. It felt similar to a bad tension headache with severe pressure in my head with nausea and hot flashes. Prior to the headache, I randomly had days of nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever and chills.
Avatar n tn I also went to mexico at the beginning of May at contracted rotavirus last month and recently tested positive for hepatitis A but I have no idea what is causing this headache. I am also nauseated off and on, but the main thing is my head. It is persistent every day and I believe it could be a parasite I picked up but I am not sure. I have no history of headaches and this came out of nowhere on June 3rd. I've had so many tests that haven't given us any answers.

Avatar f tn My first baby spit up till almost 7 months old. And he was breastfed exclusively for 3 months then combination after that. I was only formula feed and spit up terribly my mom referred to it as projectile vomiting spit up. I eventually outgrew it. And my hubby who was exclusively breastfed for 15 months other than adding in solids spit up terribly also. Some babies just do even if there's nothing wrong. And were all fine now and no allergies. :-) hopefully she'll outgrow it soon.
Avatar n tn t sound as lactose intolerance. Viral diarrhea (Rotavirus) is common in children younger than 5 years, and some immunity develops after that, so it would be unusual to have 4 consecutive bouts of diarrhea from the virus. What is the color and consistence of his stool? How many times a day? He is complaining (or you suspect) about school problems? Any abdominal pain, if yes, where exactly?
Avatar m tn Took him back to the pediatrician after 6 days of diarrhea, but no more vomiting. We did a stool culture and sensitivity, check for rotavirus and c-diff. All negative. Diarrhea continued daily 2-3x/day with continued decreased appetite and tummy ache complaints. The diarrhea eventually stopped after 2.5 weeks and we breathed a sigh of relief. During this time, he began taking probiotics - both acidophilus as well as beneficial yeast - saccharomyces boulardii.
