We all know there are times that kids seem to complain (51) a stomach ache to get out of chores or going to school. Don’t be so sure that the pain they (52) is all in their minds. We’re learning more now about a condition (53) "functional abdominal pain" that is experienced by millions of kids every day.

"You know, you’re running the tests and nothing’s coming up. So, is it in his head, is he just an extremely stressful child? It’s just frustrating (59) we’re not finding any answers," says Marilyn.
It turns out Kyle was suffering from a condition known (60) functional abdominal pain, that affects as many as one out of every ten kids in this country. Even (61) the cause of the pain may not be obvious, there are real consequences.

"We think about it as being important in anxiety and depression and that’s all quite true, but what’s really interesting is that 95% of our body’s serotonin is in our gut, " says Campo.
Campo believes these kids have extremely sensitive intestines, and controlling the effects of serotonin may (65) ease the pain. It seemed to work for Kyle, who is now completely pain free for the first time in years.
