[|Human|] My 8 yr old was just diagnosed with systemic mastocytosis . We know it is in the intestines. He has had bad abdominal pain for a month now. Blood dr a ppt. And allergist a ppt not for several weeks. No one is taking this seriously. What I read online states otherwise. Should we bring him to st Jude?
[|AI|]  Hello, welcome to Chat Doctor. Mastocytosis is a rare disorder consisting of too many mast cells in the body. Because mast cells play a role in allergic reactions, the symptoms of mastocytosis often are similar to the symptoms of an allergic reaction. Symptoms include fatigue, abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. The diagnosis can be made by bone marrow biopsy. There is no specific treatment for it and treatment consists of symptomatic medication. SO you should not worry about him and just take him to your doctor for treatment of his symptoms. Wish him good health.
