Extractions: ABDOMINAL MIGRAINE Abdominal migraine is one of the variants of migraine headache. It is also known by other terms including "periodic syndrome". This variant most typically occurs in children. They usually have a family history of migraine and go on to develop typical migraine later in their life. The attacks are characterized by periodic bouts of abdominal pain lasting for about two hours. Along with the abdominal pain they may have other symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, flushing or pallor. Tests fail to reveal a cause for the pain. Occasionally there may be EEG findings suggestive of epilepsy but this is rarely related to seizures. Medications that are useful for treating migraine work to control these attacks in most children.

http://www.aafp.org/afp/990401ap/1823.html

Extractions: Advanced Search More than one third of children complain of abdominal pain lasting two weeks or longer. The diagnostic approach to abdominal pain in children relies heavily on the history provided by the parent and child to direct a step-wise approach to investigation. If the history and physical examination suggest functional abdominal pain, constipation or peptic disease, the response to an empiric course of medical management is of greater value than multiple "exclusionary" investigations. A symptom diary allows the child to play an active role in the diagnostic process. The medical management of constipation, peptic disease and inflammatory bowel disease involves nutritional strategies, pharmacologic intervention and behavior and psychologic support. C hronic abdominal pain in children is defined as pain of more than two weeks' duration. The pain may be persistent or recurrent. It is a frustrating concern to the child, the parents and the physician. The differential diagnosis of abdominal pain in children varies with age, gender, genetic predisposition, nutritional exposure and many environmental factors. While efforts to distinguish organic from functional abdominal pain are admirable, these apparently opposing etiologies are not mutually exclusive in children, since psychologic complications of organic disease are common.

Extractions: Abstract Conventional medical treatment for neurological disorders such as epilepsy, migraine, and autism focuses on the brain. Although standard medical treatment is often helpful, the underlying causes of these disorders are not well understood. Furthermore, some individuals respond poorly, or not all to regular medicine. Evidence is accumulating in the medical literature that the enteric nervous system (ENS) - that part of the nervous system associated with the alimentary canal - also plays a role in these disorders. Historically, the concept of an autonomous abdominal nervous system was advocated by Byron Robinson, Johannis Langley, and Edgar Cayce. The work of these three prominent historical figures is considered along with modern viewpoints on the abdominal nervous system. Complementary therapies that address the nervous system of the abdomen hold potential as useful adjuncts to conventional treatment for certain neurological disorders. Introduction It is evident both from the historical and modern literature that the peripheral nervous system, and particularly that portion associated with the alimentary canal, is a prominent element in certain neurological disorders associated with the cerebral brain. For example, abdominal epilepsy and abdominal migraine are well established diagnostic entities in modern medicine in both children and adults (Babb and Eckman, 1972; Loar, 1979; Mitchell et al., 1983; Reimann, 1973; Santoro et al., 1990; Symon and Russell, 1986). Some researchers regard the presence of abdominal features in these illnesses as important and of possible etiological significance (Amery and Forget, 1989; Mavromichalis et al., 1995; Peppercorn and Herzog, 1989). Recently, autism has been added to the list of neurological conditions with abdominal features (Horvath et al., 1998; Murch et al., 1998; Wakefield et al., 1998;).

Depending on your background, the term "CVS" may or may not be familiar to you. Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome is sometimes called "abdominal migraine," "migraine variant," or sometimes inaccurately diagnosed as any of a number of functional gastrointestinal or psychological disorders. In some children & adults CVS is frequent or severe enough to be disabling. CVS isn't caused by "something you ate", it isn't repeated bouts of the "flu" or other infections. The cause of CVS hasn't been isolated yet, but there are qualified professionals who can accurately diagnose and treat CVS. You and your family can find relief and gain control of your life again.

http://www.headaches.org/consumer/educationalmodules/completeguide/gatoz.html

Extractions: Abdominal migraine: A type of migraine, in which the pain is over the upper part of the abdomen and lasts a few hours. It is most common in female children. Diagnosis is easily made because of the family history of migraine, the infrequency of the attacks, and the frequent simultaneous occurrence of headache. If it remains undiagnosed, however, the patient may be subjected to unnecessary surgery for abdominal complaints. Back To Top Aneurysm: A weakness in the blood vessel wall that balloons out and may rupture at some point. Aneurysms rarely cause symptoms before the rupture, unless they are large. They do not mimic the symptoms of migraine or cluster headache. It is vital to discover them before they rupture and have catastrophic consequences such as paralysis or death.

Extractions: helpful? yes no Abdominal migraine is an idiopathic disorder seen mainly in children. The symptoms are of recurrent episodes of midline abdominal pain with attacks lasting 1-72 hours and complete normality between episodes. The pain is of moderate to severe intensity and is felt in the midline of the abdomen, usually around the umbilicus, or poorly localised. The attacks of pain are usually accompanied by anorexia and nausea and about half of the patients will vomit with at least some attacks. Marked pallor is commonly noted during the attacks although some patients may appear flushed. The pain is severe enough to interfere with normal daily activities and many children describe their mood during the attack as one of intense misery. The attacks are self limiting and resolve spontaneously and patients are completely well and symptom free between attacks. The onset of attacks of abdominal pain may be at any time of day but occurs most frequently first thing in the morning on waking. Associated symptoms include photophobia (sensitivity to light), phonophobia (sensitivity to sound) and dizziness in many children.

Since this weekend I've had terrible cramps in my upper stomach, just where my ribs are. It has kept me doubled over for more than a few days now I do not think i have a 'bug' which is what most people are trying to tell me. The cramps are not "in" my actually stomach...just in the same area. It feels like extreme gas pain...but there is no gas. I get a bit nauseous, but i believe that is from the pain. Its more like this traveling burning pain in my rib area. Tums and the like did not help. I broke down finally and took 2 percocets Monday night and it went away! It came back several hours later though...making me believe that it is something migraine related and not intestinal Anyone have any opinions on this? Anyone else ever get the dreaded abdominal migraine?

Extractions: Adapted From: Migraines For Dummies As if migraines aren't big enough mischief-makers as it is, they also like to sing show tunes and take on different personas. So here we turn to migraine variants Abdominal migraines, which are sometimes diagnosed in children, are unusual because they cause pain in the stomach and lead to nausea and vomiting (sometimes without a headache). A child who complains of recurrent pain in his stomach may be experiencing abdominal migraines. Children who suffer from abdominal migraines are likely to have migraine headaches in adulthood. Abdominal migraines are usually treated with anticonvulsant drugs. The basilar migraine was once known as the basilar artery migraine, or BAM. It was considered a problem that was found primarily in young women and adolescent girls, but it occurs in both sexes and all ages. Basilar migraines are extremely rare, but they have the potential to be a serious health hazard in that they can lead to a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke. Symptoms to watch for are double vision, partial vision loss, terrible vomiting, dizziness, loss of balance, slurred speech, lack of coordination, numbness (on one or both sides of the body), weakness, and confusion. These symptoms typically go away at the onset of the actual headache, although they may last for days after the pain disappears.

Extractions: Cyclic vomiting syndrome is a childhood disorder characterized by bouts of vomiting that last from a few hours to several days. The vomiting episodes occur regularly: Some children have them every few days, others every few months. Although researchers do not know what causes CVS, many patients can identify particular events that seem to trigger the vomiting. The three most common events are distress, excitement, or illness. Diagnosis can be difficult because CVS does not appear to leave clues that can be found by medical tests like x-rays or blood tests. The only way doctors can diagnose CVS is to rule out other diseases and wait to see whether a pattern to the vomiting can be identified.

Extractions: : I have done much reading on abdominal migraine and have yet to see anyone else say their child has such high fevers or lack of vomiting at times yet all else is constant. We have done a ct and it was normal it was done for a pituitary but the neurologist looked at it and said it was normal. If this is abdominal migraine that's fine but it is scary. Many tests have been done on my daughter because of all that's been wrong but an MRI has never been done. : Kerry Dear Kerry: dose until her cycling vomiting cease. We have had to go up to 5 mg/kg/d, but we have about a 70% cure and most others improve. Now, if she improves and the fevers also cease, then you have your answer and the fever is apart of her migraine. I think if I saw your daughter here at the Cleveland clinic, I would order an MRI of her brain. The resolution of the MRI is so much better than CT, and I would want to be sure that there isn't a small tumor. I realize that things in Canada are different. However, if it were my daughter I would ask for one. I hope that the abdominal migraines resolve. Best of luck.
