She will always has a stamachache first then she will has to go to the toilet. I'm wondering if its got to do with the daily supplyments since she has been taking a year ago, they are organic vegetable multivitamin, omega 3 salmon oil & vitamin C . She used to have bowel movement every 2-3 days before taking these supplements.
It actually got worst today when she fainted in school after having stamachache & then pass motion all over herself (can this happen to people who fainted?)
hope someone with medical knowledge can enlighten me on this matter & if i should take her for a medical check up?

Take her to doctor. Having this many bowel movements can dehydrate her ( causing fatigue) and needs attention. She could have IBS or something more serious.

i wish folks would learn that what all seems to be healthy can actually harm instead of good.
organic? vegetable vitamins? omega 3 and vitamin c?
she is only 12! she should be only taking a multi-vitamin and not from a source that is not FDA approved.
you might have exaboratted an underlying issue called irritable bowel syndrome....the serretonin in the gut is unable to regulate the serretonin in the brain...(all types are different)
poor girl....ibs hurts! over time, the body will automatically think it's got to go without notice.....and no stopping it-and she won't be able to gain normal function again.
seek the doctor now while she is taking what she's taking, more than likely he will say the same things and then want to see her without the things she is taking....
remember...to much of a good thing is BAD. she is probably eating a better diet than most kids her age and with the added things she probably didn't need to begin with might causing the issue.
last but not least, does your daughter drink or eat things with artificial sweetners too?

OMG! Your daughter is going thru what I am going thru! I'm 29 yo female. I think I know what's wrong with your daughter. Or have a guess at least. It sounds JUST like H pylori. A bacterial infection of the stomach. It can be cleared up with AB's.
She'll have to get tested for it.
I don't think it has anything to do with the suppliments you give her. That's just coincidence.
Def get a check up on her stomach and mention H. Pyolri
read all about it here:

The fainting sounds like something else entirely and should def be mentioned to your doc. It could be she's dehydrated from all the BM's. Make sure she drinks TONS of water. All day. Tell her teachers to allow her to sip on water all day.
Good luck!

I would have the doctor check her out asap, especially with the pain and fainting. Many many people, including my 11 year old, have the urge for a bowel movement after eating so that aspect is normal.

yes off course
she might have something wrong and when u mentioned that she passed feces on herself this may raise the suspision that she may have some type of epilepsy any way she must be checked carefully and may need to have upper git endoscopy and colonoscopy and full investigations so as soon as possible go to your gp or private doctor.

all that vitamin stuff is going to cause trouble, stop with all that organic stuff and see a real doctor, the only people here are the general public, like you.

You should absolutely take her to her doctors. The doc may have to adjust the meds
