My daughter, now 15 years old, was recently diagnosed with Acid reflux.
They suspect that she has had it since infancy. They think that her
severe colic was actually acid reflux. She was on 7 different kinds of
formula as a baby after she couldn’t even tolerate my breast milk.
Finally survived in ~somewhat~ comfort on alimentum or nutramigen. She
is a tiny little thing. Only weighs 95 lbs at 5’8″. She NEVER over
eats. In fact, I can hardly get her to eat enough. She does eat a lot
of tomato based foods and drinks a lot of soda and milk (which we have
just cut out since her diagnosis) She is scheduled for a GI work up to
check for possible damage on Monday March 5th. They started her on
prilosec OTC. We have elevated head of the bed. She was told to cut out
a ton of foods; however, I just read on this web site that as of 2006,
a study shows cutting out these foods is not helpful and that food is
not the root problem????
