Severe right side stomach pain

LOOKING FOR DR. HOUSE- OR JUST A DOCTOR WITH AN ANSWER!!!!!!!

My daughter is 16 yrs old and on Dec 11, 2006 she was shopping and said she got over heated with upper stomach pain and nausea and a bad head ache,She came home and had the shakes, then went to bed, the next day she woke to uncontrolable shakes in the upper body, she has been admitted to the children's hospital in our area to which they performed an MRI,EEG,AND multi. other test to no availe they found nothing and wrote it off as a motion disorder.Which is supposed to be all in her head.
  Now she had been home for a few days and began  to complain of a really bad somach pain on lower right side, with vomiting bright yellow and loose bowls. We took her to another hospital and they did a CAT scan,  ultra sound of her stomach. They didn't find anything with the Cat scan, but with the ultra sound they seen a small amount of fluid in the area, but could not say if it was an ovarian cyst that had ruptured, sending her home with very bad pain and told the pain would go away. I took her to her Ped Doctor yesterday and he gave her a urine test and found a high level of white blood cells and blood in her urine. He has put her on antibiotics in hope that this will clear up. If you know of anyone having these same symtoms please e-mail me. Oh by the way she is on the Depo shot could this be the problem? This is a child whom has never been sick, very healthy and out going girl.To come down with all of these things in one month is really baffling.  Thank you!  My e-mail address is yellowrunner_4***@****

Today, went back to hospital with severe right pain in lower stomach and peeing blood, They the (Doctor's) now say that she has Mesenteric Adenitis. Maybe not for sure though.Sent her home with severe pain and more pain meds.

Coincidentally, both yesterday and today I had bright red blood after each BM. I have hemroids inside and out for many years and occasionally they bleed. This was more than usual. It did seem to be coming from that area. But, this morning my right groin and hip is really bothering me and gas and stomach cramping.

Yes Depo is a shot that is given to stop the menses, used to prevent pregnacy.

At the risk of sounding very naive, what is Depo? Is it a form of birth control?

Depo side effects  are what you are describing. Was the Depo ordered by a doctor for some other reason than to prevent pregnacy? Did you know that Depo depletes the calcium and can cause bone damage?  To stop the menses in a 16 year old could have future serious trouble.
