What is wrong with these people?!

Think its time for a ppi? if she is still arching and in pain, than it is not under control. That was what happened when we were on zantac, then 15 mgs of prevacid. Now on close to 30 mgs. of prevacid and no more screaming and arching. Just switched to zegerid today (stomach virus- wont eat) so far so good. Hate how they just look at you like everything is fine. I have even had a young doc. tell me “babies cry, get used to it”. We went through 3 gi docs before I found one on this site that another mom recommended, that actually played with my baby and treated her with respect. He wanted to get to the bottem of her pain and try to stabalize her. Hope she gets some releif soon. Ryann’s only 1 day older than her.

I would love to give her a ppi! But ped says stick to Zantac cause she doesn’t scream as long as the dose is changed frequently! I don’t really have the potion of demanding it as, in UK, we get health care for free, for under 16 year olds, and private health care is seriously expensive!! Basically, you just have to do as u r told!

My dd is 28 months & has not outgrown it. She has had every test in the book & she has no physical abnormalities, etc, etc, etc. They finally quit telling us she would outgrow it & that she might outgrow it when shes older or she may never outgrow this. She is at the point though that if she gets a bit of it during the day now she asks me for a TUMS. They have the dissolvable ones now. I still give her Prevacid though. We are going on a 3 week trip in March so after we are back & settled & back to a routine, we may try weaning again for the heck of it.

By the way, not only has my dd had all the normal reflux tests, she has had allergy testing, we even went with wheat free diet, gluten free diet, dairy free diet, soy free diet (not all at the same time) & there was no change. She has had every metabolic test done & she was deemed healthy in that aspect. The only thing that my dd is dealing with now along with her reflux is that she is in feeding therapy as we found out that she didn’t have a food aversion but they saw that she did not know how to chew food properly. She was trying to chew with her front teeth instead instead of molars & she got tired of chewing & just gave up. She has been doing better though.
