What Causes Vomiting And Sleep Talking In A Child?

My 10 yr old daughter wakes up about once a month vomiting everywhere! Its always in the middle of the night and she will have vomit in her bed, floor,etc.! Sometimes it will only happen once, but it usually happens a few times before morning with usually no other symptoms and she wakes up fine! She was a horrible bed wetter until a yr. or so ago, and then this began! Shes also a sleep-walker, and before she was sick tonight, i heard her talking in her sleep! Weve tried to pinpoint a certain food that could be causing this but what she ate tonight, i know shes not allergic to. One last thing, she complains often of headaches, normally in the afternoons, but i thought it was from the hr long bus ride home from school!

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi
Welcome to the HCM

The symptoms of your daughter can be due to certain reasons like seizure disorder, psychological stress or just a peptic ulcer disease. I would recommend you to take following measure to help her out:
1. Sleep EEG to rule out seizure disorder.
2. Visit a psychotherapist for proper psychological evaluation
3. Start her on Omeprazole ( antacid drug) at dinner. Ensure plenty of fluids orally and avoid any spicy and oily food.

You may upload her report for my reference. Hopefully this will be of help.
Take care
