I'd talk to the Oley foundation. They are tops in central line feeding. Jennifer Hisrich, mom to Rebecca 9/18/98, 27 weeks, 1 lb. 3 oz. G-button 12/98-10/09,...
My son has a central line also and was told the probiotics can translocate into the line and cause infections. Does anyone have experience with this? Is there...
Suzanne, Thank you for posting that as well. I know it's helped my daughter greatly with keeping her gut in check. I know there are many different brands and ...
Thank you so much Suzanne! I am so happy to read this. I will definitely put them in her formula!! ________________________________ From: Suzanne Morris...
I don't think that putting probiotics in warm formula would kill any of the essential bacteria. If you think about the mouth and body itself, the internal...
our allergist did the testing right on his skin - he did my youngest son at 5 months - showed major allergies to egg and we are glad we had it down. He ate...
Yeah I can see you would hold off on another sedated endoscopy until you were out of other avenues. Jennifer Hisrich, mom to Rebecca 9/18/98, 27 weeks, 1 lb. 3...
Food allergy testing can be done by at least age 1. Some allergist will test at any age if there are symptoms.. it is the seasonal stuff that takes long to...
Sorry I didn't' mean for having probiotics I meant as a baby step for her sensory issues. The only problem is that I can't get her to drink/eat anything much...
The only problem is that I can't get her to drink/eat anything much other than her formula, which is warm and would kill those good bacterias. I have some in...
My son had allergy testing at 18 months of age. They just drew blood and ran the tests from that. However, I have also been told that allergy testing isn't...
I use warm water to mix her probiotic, it doesn't mix with cold water. And it still works just fine. Reiley is only the second patient in 20 years of practice...
Betsy, It usually takes at least 3 days before we start noticing its effects. Sometimes up to a week before it really "kicks in." I'd give it time- our GI...
Erica, How long did it take for the Periactin to begin working for increased appetite? We have been on it for about 5 days now and I haven't noticed much of...
Interesting Susan. I hope we don't have the 666 effect. We already struggle with some really bad temper tantrums. We don't need anything to top them off. I...
We are currently going to OT and ST 2x a week. The OT seems to be a little puzzled, b/c sometimes she will eat, but at other times she will not. Usually not....
I think it was caused by two courses of antibiotics that she was on prior to the endoscopy. The GI thinks that it could have been present for sometime...
So what do you think caused so much yeast in the first place. Unless it is really painful to check I'd be sure it is gone before you try anything else. ...
Did an allergist test her to see if she has allergies to foods? We removed wheat from our sons diet for a while and it helped. Our situation was he has...
My son is 21 months and we still struggle with solids. He has been diagnosed w/ oral and verbal Apraxia. I have also been told that my son's tongue does not...
OH one thing I forgot to mention... we found to help keep Reiley's gut in better balance, (very yeast girl, bacteria infections, hemo in her stool samples,...
Periactin is used for a lot of different things. It seems most people I hear talking/writing about it are on it for appetite. My daughter is on it for...
Hi, My son has been on Periactin for almost a year now. It's helped us a lot. I think it works differently on every kid- some experience a big appetite...
Has anyone ever tried Periactin to help stimulate appetite? Did you have any luck with using it? Did your child experience any side effects? My now 14 mo old...
If he's had diarrhea since the hospital have they at least tested it for a virus or bacteria problem? I think there is a way to continuously vent a g-tube but...
I have a 15 month old son that has horrible gas and constant dirreah. He has a fundo and g-tube and the gas drops dont help its just a constant flow of air...
My son too had a severe milk protien allergy as an infant. Took forever to get a diagnosis with serious diahrea, bloody stool and feeding issues. We used...
Hi Erica, Our son had a severe dairy- and soy-protein intolerance, with *lots* of blood in his stools. We used Neocate and breast milk for him until about 16 ...
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has a child who grew out of a milk protein allergy. My son Eli is almost 18 months old now (16 months adjusted) and has had...
