On exam, the patient appears ill and pale. Her heart rate is 100 beats per minute, respiratory rate is 18 breaths per minute, and her blood pressure is 80 mm Hg over 65 mm Hg. She has diffuse abdominal tenderness without guarding or rebound. The remainder of her exam is normal. Lab results—including complete blood count (CBC), comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), amylase, lipase, and CRP—are all within normal limits. Which of the following is the likely cause of this child’s pain? A. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) B. Acute pancreatitis C. Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) D. Functional constipation
