I originally posted about my 9 year old son on January 5th. Refer back to this for the symptoms. He had his upper and lower endoscopies on the 12th, and the lower showed numerous ulcers in the large intestine and at the beginning of the small intestine. The doctor insists that it has to be Crohn's disease based on just this and the blood work, which showed eosinophilia and elevated sedimentation. He is insistent that this has nothing to do with the Singulair and the dosage change. It's just a coincidence .... He' in the hospital for a week now. Watch for those stomach complaints! His started with poor appetite, complaining that he was full when he had hardly eaten, and vague complaints about eating giving him a stomach ache. It progressed to occasional diarrhea. It got worse quickly after that, just a few weeks.

My 9 year old son started Singulair 5mg about 8 months ago. Shortly after, he started to occasionally complain of stomach pain and not being hungry. About 2 months ago, they changed the dosage to 10mg. He now has chronic diarrhea and severe weight loss. We stopped the medicine about 2 weeks ago, but he's not "back to normal" yet. He's never had any digestive problems before. The doctor's recommending endoscopes, and we're at our wit's end.

There is a class action lawsuit for anyone that took Yaz/Yasmin birth control. I just saw the commercial the other day from an attorney in Denver and it's nationwide. Please call Nolan Law Group - Valerie Romo at 888-630-9340. They are handling it nationwide.
