Dealing with the hypochondriac

[Astrid]

Everyday, multiple times a day, DD1 is either feeling sick or has something that is sore.

Most mornings she will say that she is sick, but when I walk her into school she will run around and swing on the monkey bars. Same with pickup, I will see her playing and she will run up to me and say she was feeling sick today, but the teacher would not call me.
I have spoken to her teacher about and she always seems well in class.

The last 2 years we were dealing with bad tummy aches, which she saw a paed for. We put it down to anxiety. The previous teacher noted the tummy aches would start when she was nervous about something. Have not done any counselling for this, as DH is being stubborn and does not believe in counselling

She has a lot of pains. Could be growing pains, could also be due to her just doing things like PE and gymnastics. We are always explaining to her that sometimes when you use your body it can hurt afterwards. We have also explained the whole "boy who cried wolf" concept.

She spends up to an hour each night getting out of bed and coming to us with some complaint. So she is getting to sleep late, which I think is part of her problem, I know I feel ill if I am not getting enough sleep.
There is also a food issue I am concerned about, but that is really for another thread.

I am over it, completely at my wits end. I am in half a panic that there is something really wrong or that if something really does go wrong that we will just ignore it.
The times when I have kept her home, she has ended up being quite well. In one way I am glad that I work, otherwise I would be bullied into keeping her home (yes I do feel bullied by her behavior as when she is "ill" she is unrelenting).
