Too good to be true?

hi! im just wondering if maybe doing both trials at once may end up being too confusing? if he starts acting cranky, etc. how will you know whether its the PPI dose or the milk thats the issue?

good luck!

That’s a good point. Usually he has different reactions with the two. With the medicine, his reaction would be bad breath or spitting up. With the milk, it would be eczema or looser stools. So far, we’ve had no reactions at all.

I wanted to update since it has been a week since I first posted. Our son is still doing extremely well and we are getting ready to stop the Prevacid tomorrow. He has had absolutely no symptoms and we are ecstatic. It has been a looooooooooong 2 years and we are keeping our fingers crossed that he has outgrown his reflux and milk protien allergy for good. Thank you so much for your comments and support. They are greatly appreciated!

Our son is now completely weaned off the Prevacid and things are still going pretty well with that. He has been doing well on milk for about 3 weeks, also, but just today he had a loose, black frothy bowel movement. Before that he had a couple green bowel movements and two loose stools, but I thought it was too much birthday cake wreaking havoc on his digestive system. Could he be having a reaction to the milk after 3 weeks? I thought it would have shown up sooner.
