He says the child has had to go to his GP at least 15 times with the complaint and has been admitted to hospital a couple of times.
He’s hoping to raise the matter with the Regional Health Forum at a meeting today.
However, Councillor McDonald says it’s been proving difficult to get any concrete information from the Health Service.
