Reflux or eating disorder?
When my 4yr old daughter sits down for meals she says she has the "hiccups" then she vomits or attempts to. I don't know what to do sometimes it will be up to 3 days that she won't eat more than a couple bites of fruit. She started this shortly after she turned 3. Her pediatrician blew me off when I asker her what to do.I think I need a new doctor. Please Help!

Answers:
If your daughter is four, I would think it a reflex, because I think she is to young to have an eating disorder. I would find a new doctor.

If you had to choose, which would you be? Blind or deaf?
Yes you do need a new doctor, it's obvious the symptoms your daughter is showing are not normal for a 4 year old. Get another pediatrician and have your daughter checked out. Make a point of going to your old pediatricians office for ALL your daughters medical records, make sure you let the receptionist and anyone else in earshot know ecactly why you are getting her records. Your new pediatricians job will be much easier with all of your daughters old medical records.Source(s):

TumbsGet a second opinion if you feel your pediatrician is blowing you off. Is she throwing up all foods or just certain ones? Perhaps she's going through a phase where she makes herself throw up foods she doesn't want to eat. Make sure she's getting enough fluids (Pedialyte is good)

Of COURSE you need a new doctor. This sounds rather serious. Vomiting is horrible for the digestive tract. Maybe she needs a child psychologist. In any case, don't rely on suggestions from youqa.com, for goodness sake. Find a really good pediatrician and really outline the problem. It has already been a year.i would definitely find another pediatrician. it cant be healthy for her to keep vomitting or trying too. it could damage her esophageous if she does it daily. its one thing for the dr to brush off a parents concerns about their kid not eating, we know kids are picky eaters and sometimes parents overreact, but especially if she says she has the hiccupps, maybe shes trying to explain that somethings not right in her throat. not trying to scare you, it probably is nothing but i would find another, more attentive dr.
