Covid Recovery: How can I manage GI issues?

It’s been 1 year since my then 12 yo had an inflammatory response post covid (it was not defined as Mis-C, but did cause her to be hospitalized). Some of her symptoms has faded, but she is left with a constant stomachache, sore throat, and dizziness. 19 doctors later she is diagnosed with gastroparesis and SIBO. So far the medication (Creon and motilium) and dietary changes have not helped.

I'm lootto get tested for SIBO. My doctor doesn't know anything about. Is it a GI doc? What is the test?

My 17yo daughter got Covid in July 2022, which started with vomiting. 5 months later she has severe stomach and abdominal pain daily, almost constant nausea, random vomiting (sometimes lasting for hours), heartburn, acid reflux, lightheaded and dizziness at times. We're seeing a GI specialist who has her on Prilosec and Zofran (which seems to sometimes help stop or avoid the vomiting), but no idea what else to do. Ultrasounds, bloodwork, Stool Sample, CT scan all normal. We have an endoscopy and colonoscopy scheduled in a couple of weeks, as well as an allergy appointment.
Has anything helped your child? Mine is missing so much school and life.
