@becsbuddy So very true that he wasn't to be a typical "boy." His issues started in high school (he is college age now) when they discovered he had scoliosis, and then he was in the hospital for a week where they finally said he has IBS-C. Since then, he has been diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos and a mild tremor. His daily concerning pain is abdominal, not in his legs (although he does have minor aches and pains from the scoliosis/Ehlers Danlos) and you are right that exercises do help that in a way. We really wish someone can find a "cure" for whatever is causing the daily abdominal pain though as it is debilitating in the mornings.

@thechia https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/childrens-and-teens-health/. Your son might like the children’s and teens support group. He can ask any questions he wants and get involved in discussions just like you do. That may be best for his age, rather having ‘mom’ know everything. My sons were hesitant to tell me much of anything! Now, they’re both married so they can tell their wives!
Can the docs do anything for the scoliosis?

@thechia if your son is smoking marijuana to relieve the pain. There is a thing called cannabinoid hypermiesis syndrome that has extreme abdominal pain that gives undiagnosed with a variety of different things. The doctor say you might have quick fix stop smoking it a week and a half. You’ll be fine soaking in a real hot tub can help either way.
