Heard back from Ben's GI doctor and he said Ben's Upper GI shows no signs of a paraesophageal hernia. Was hoping that was the root of his feeding issues and with a pretty easy surgical fix, everything would be better. No such luck, so we are back to the drawing board. Ben is doing pretty well lately with his feeds though. Had 3 vomiting episodes in October and can't say for sure what the cause of each one was. One might have been a stomach bug because it was going around, but the symptoms of a stomach bug are exactly the same as the symptoms Ben has when he doesn't tolerate his feeds.
Now that we know the Upper GI is as normal as it can be for Ben, we have to start the supplement to help him gain weight. Dreading it though because I have a feeling Ben won't tolerate it.
