My 11-year-old son has been suffering from pain in his genitals, lower abdomen and upper thighs, and during urination, since January 2009. He's had blood tests, ultrasounds, X-rays. We've had him checked by his pediatrician, a pediatric urologist, a pediatric gastroenterologist and pain specialists. They have not been able to find a source of his pain. They've suggested he see a psychotherapist. He's seen a psychiatrist who says he doubts it's in his head and wants us to see a neurologist, so that's our next step.
I saw a posting on this site from 1/22/08 (marnie_skip) about an 11-year old boy with what seems to be the very same symptoms. Do you have any ideas what this could be?
Thank you,
Catherine
