Woohoo! We went to see our new GI specialist this morning after all of our troubles last week the pediatrician that we are divorcing. He immediately took our DD off Zantac and immediately started max dose of Prevacid. Confirmed our decision NOT to take Regland since it seems to be unncessary, and got us scheduled for the suck/swallow study that we have been waiting 3 weeks for “Bwitch” to schedule. Wooohoo!
Oh, oh…AND he thinks that we might not be MSPI as previously diagnosed-he thinks that it might have just been because the Zantac wasn’t working! Told me to start eating whatever the heck I want…I am going to wait until the Prevacid kicks in, but it might be Cheese City for me before you know it!
great news. Make sure you give the prevacid on an empty stomach followed by a feed 30-60 min later. And even though the Zantac wasn’t cutting it, keep giving it for 2wks spaced 4hrs apart from the prevacid so you don’t take steps back while waiting for it to kick in. Good Luck.
That is such great news Shellie! I agree with Beth about keeping the up with the zantac while the prevacid kicks in. Even though it doesn’t work that great, it’s better than nothing! And I hope he’s right that your LO isn’t MSPI and that you can enjoy some cheese fries, with an extra side of cheese & a grilled cheese sandwich soon. LOL jilly782008-08-06 18:13:30
