[|Human|] This is a senario; a 9 month old girl was admitted to hospital with chronic diarrhoea, intestinal cramps and flatulence. her weight gain had been slightly below normal for the first 6 months of life, but had become considerably below normal in the past 3 months. diarrhoea first became obvious at about 6 months. microscopic analysis of the faeces did not reveal any abnormalities. a sample of urine is available for analysis. What could her possible diagnosis be and why did the diarrhoea start at 6 months ? ( I assume it is because she was weaned off breast milk and it has something to do with amylase enzyme)
