Oh my gosh where are you located? Orlando is almost an hour for me too. I am going to a GI tomorrow in Tampa which is closer for me and I was on a waiting list that started me out a month out and I kept getting pushed closer and closer and ended up only waiting about 2 weeks. I am so sorry! It SUCKS that it takes so much to get into a speciailist for these hurting babies. Do you think 15mg is enough for my almost 8 week old baby? Maybe I should print that dosage chart from Marci-kids and take with me to the GI doc tomorrow. We just started prevacid today and I don’t want to start on the wrong dose. Gosh this is harrowing!
Maybe I can help with the GI situation. You are obviously in FL, I just don’t know which direction. Maybe we can email?

About doctors, I’ve learned the hard way that doctors are not the experts of all things like they always should be. I’ve had a few situations with my own care where the doctor did not know some key information that resulted in me becoming very sick. So I was paranoid long before Hailey rolled around with her reflux.
I’ve learned that when it comes to your health (or your child’s health) you need to make yourself almost as much of an expert as your doctor is so you can be a knowledgeable consumer of health care services. You also need to have a doctor who you can trust, and who is open to listening to new information. I know that is sad, but it’s my paranoia talking.
