So this "little girl" has been having tummy troubles for a while now. She has a habit of getting sick a lot, and then some more. For as long as I remember she has gotten sick easily. if she was too anything she would get "sick" I just thought it was her being extreme and a cry for attention. Well 2 years of counseling and a few Dr. appoints and some test that show that the food doesn't go to the tummy, but comes right back up we are going to see a G.I. Now the ironic thing is last week I got fed up and put her on a liquid diet and started to introduce proteins, fruits and veggies. She has not vomited any in the past week. We also started a new stronger anti acid. So something is helping. Good, but now I get to guess which. The Dr. is a sweet man but never thought of a food intolerant issue. So we now have her not sick all the time, the damage that has been done to her esophagus is getting a chance to heal, but why. And how much damage was done because I tried not to give her attention for this issue thinking it would go away. oh well, I did what I thought was best, got her counseling and now am looking at physical reasons why. I wish I could just get answers. I do feel some guilt, but that doesn't help anything, so I am moving past that. If you are a praying person, please pray for solutions so I can teach this child how to take care of her body to be a healthy adult.
Faline, I am the praying sort and she's in my thoughts and prayers. I have a daughter who is on the 100 mile sickness diet. If it's within a 100 miles she gets it, and usually most of her troubles revolve around her stomach. My daughter was born sick, long term antibiotic therapy etc. I don't know if you have tried acidophillous supplements, but we noticed an amazing improvement, as well as eliminating dairy. Thinking about your little girl.
ReplyDeletewow, I can totally relate, Brianna get all kind of "odd" things for her age and gets "sick" all the time. It took years of telling the school no I will not come and get her just because she threw up. I am hoping that she is not gluten intolerant, but I have the "mommy" feeling that it is. As long as we can identify what is wrong and make a plan on how to treat and live with it she will be o.k.
ReplyDeleteShe is just so happy to not throw up after every meal and that her sore throet is feeling better.
Hey... Bio K at new frontiers is on sale right now.... I was talking to someone about Bri and we both thought it would be great for her.. and it's gluten free!
ReplyDeleteAlso... you do know that you still have a christmas background up right? :)
