Hi, njcukett posted 2 days ago asking if anyone is still having abdominal pain after being off singuliar awhile.My 7 yr.old (on singuliar at least 3 yrs.) is still having pain.She also had bladder issues for the past 2 yrs.(Frequent dripping and urgency to void).This went unexplained by doctors.Over the past 6 weeks since she stopped taking singuliar,I have noticed a complete change in her stools.While on singuliar they had become grayish in color.She would have 2-3 of these movements a day.The color of her stools are now normal,but the lower abdominal pain is still present.So I am wondering if the pain is coming from the bladder, not the stomach.I am going in(without my daughter) to discuss this with her pediatrician next week.Singuliar also made her very anxious,do not want to add to that,by discussing this in front of her.For the people having abdominal pain,did the stools change while on singuliar compared to when off?Just curious.

Hi. Another thing that both our girls have in common is the change in stool color. I just noticed it recently and thought it was some change in her diet, but you are exactly right when you say it is grey. We have only had abdominal pain a few times, but we have had pain right above her pubic bone, which I would imagine is the bladder.....

J. Interesting.Hopefully more will answer.It only makes sense that once her upper abdominal pain went away, along with the bloatiness,that her stools would return back to normal.I feel its very important to have her bladder closely looked at(for the lower ab. pain),being that she has been having these bladder issues for a long time.I have read chronic cystitis can cause bladder ulcers.That is my concern.Better safe than sorry.

My son never complains of pain he just endures it.. but acts irritable so thats my clue when something is wrong. He has been having problems with constipation ever since he was 2. He started singulair at 2 1/2. Since he has been off his constipation problem has gone away!
