UPPER GI!

Jaxson seen the doctor this week after getting an upper GI.The doctor said his Fundo was a little loose but not enough to worry about.He said all the vomiting he thinks is due to Jaxson not digesting his formula fast enough.So for now we cannot gravity feed or bolus .His feeding machine has been set to feed over and hour and he is on an antibiotic which will help with his digestive issues.He just started this antibiotic last night so we wait a week and see.I am happy the doctor listened to all my concern's.Jax has dropped some weight from all the vomiting spells he has suffered through the past month.Oh How i don't like seeing my Liberian angel suffer in anyway.Hope this does the trick and he gains the weight he has lost back!

Have you ever tried blending real foods for him in a super power blender and bolusing him? Every tube fed child I have ever had got stomach issues and relux using all the pedia drinks and formula. It is just to concentrated. Digests slowly and over time causes low o2 stats because of the micro aspiration while vomiting/refluxing. It is called reactive airway. Anyways if you wish to talk about it at all you can email me. nicholslane1@gmail.com
