For the last 2 years!...

For the last 2 years my daughter (18 yrs old) has had terrible nausea and stomach aches/cramps... It all started around the time she started taking birth control pills, and the nausea was worse when she was menstruating. The doctors changed the birth control pill types and dosages, but it never helped. She now on the Ortho Evra contraceptive skin patch and still suffers from severe dysmenorrheal along with the severe nausea and vomiting.

She has had a lot of blood analysis done, but nothing shows up as abnormal. She had an ultrasound done with nothing showing abnormal.

She has been prescribed Apo-Metoclop, Pantoloc and various other pharmaceuticals for stomach problems, but nothing has worked for her… She now has lost almost 80 lbs and has a very poor quality of life due to weakness and extreme vomiting constantly. She is unable to go to school on a regular basis.
