InactiveI think some of you probably know our Zegerid retrial failed a couple weekends ago. Well, I had to call my ped office to beg for PPI drugs (anything they had available as my GI office is useless) so anyway, I called to let my ped know that we tried zegerid and it didn’t work out but that our insurance wasn’t going to cover another PPI again in the same month and I only had 3 packs of nexium left. So he goes “well I have a TON of prevacid, what dose is Landen on?” and I sighed really loud (LOL) and said “a measly 15mg” and he said “that’s kind of low isn’t for his weight?” <jill nearly fainted but grabs hold of the countertop to steady herself> “um yeah….we need 30mg” and he says “I have 4 months worth of 30mg solutabs to get you through the next 4 months since you are moving” <nearly fainted again>





And can I say that Landen is pulling to stand on everyting and now I am hardly hearing the gulping sounds. So now I am not sure if the improvement is from him being on 30mg for the last 6 days or from his standing. LOL

InactiveWOW! What a great doctor! That is fantastic and probably such a HUGE relief for you to have the correct dose of medicine for FOUR MONTHS!!! AWESOME! Now you can tell whomever you settle in with after you move which dose IS the most helpful and hopefully they’ll continue to prescribe the amount Landen needs!!!
Pulling up/cruising/walking helped us a TON with our spit up issues. It ceased once she was upright and mobile! Hopefully it will be a positive turn for him as well!

InactiveWow, that is awesome!! I’m so glad your doc was so willing to help. What a relief, huh? SO glad Landen’s doing so well – whatever the cause.

InactiveWhat great news considering you are moving and all. This will give you some time to find a good doc once you get to maryland. Standing has helped Coop immensly, but he is on 30mg as well, so I think it is probably a combo…..

InactiveThat’s great, waht a relief! Dagney didn’t find complete relief until she was on 30mg/day either, and then she did wonderfully!! I’m so glad your pedi is so great…can you keep seeing him/her after you move?
