What Causes Upper Abdominal Pain In A Child?

My 7 years old daughter complains about every day stomach pain (upper GI) with no other symptoms we could see (like fever, diarrhea, constipation, UTI). The pain is not associated with food. She had a Sandifer syndrome (reflux) between 1-2 years but it subsided. Her pediatrician advices to wait hoping it will go away with time but her pain became a daily occurrence now and we need to do something about it. Is it the IBS? Could it be some spastic reaction (GI cramps)?

Pediatrician 's  Response
I think it is signal of reflux and heartburn, I think you should try to give domperidone 1 tab 3times after 15 min before meal 1 month for increasing tonus of stomach sphincter .In addition, antacids-almagel 1 tablespoon after 15 min before every meal 3 flesh a day 1 month and spasmolytic-syp.cyclopam. Boiled water with flax seeds is very helpful also. Follow diet number 1, see in Google.Give to her light, blended food, soup,oats, without species,onion and garlic

All the best
