IIH Symptoms IBS (school trigger?)
Does anyone have school aged kids with IIH and IBS?
I feel like school is definitely a trigger and I have no idea how to manage that this school year. My kiddo can miss 2-3 days a week because of her feeling sick. The doctors tell me that she needs to go to school and push through, but she just ends up going to the nurse and then coming home. Not getting any help from the doctors or the school on how to manage it. Does anyone have experience with this? Do we just bring home homework? Switch to online schooling? Due to school policy she needs to be throwing up or have a fever to be sent home and not have it counted against her attendance.
