Sounds serious: though not necessarily life threatening unless by blockage you mean intestinal blockage. Someone is obviously studying this child for distressing symptoms that are now persistent; keep going back until they give you an explanation. Be insistent and emphasize that she is suffering regularly and you are worried. Good luck!
