{Acid Reflux}

Garrett has been complaining about stomach pains for about a month. (Of course right when my old insurance cancels)
So my new insurance kicked in and we took him to the Dr. Acid Reflux it what he has....SO SAD!

The Dr gave him some prevacid and he threw up so I guess that's not going to work, I have to take him back to the doctor and try something else.

Hopefully we will be able to get it under control and it won't effect his life too much!

Oh and we had his ears checked....they are FINE. For those of you that don't know Garrett he is a VERY loud talker. Yep he's just loud naturally. Wonderful! LOL.

Amy,

My son has had Gurd since birth. He has even had to have surgery for it. It stems from lactose intolerance, as many do. You may try getting him the Lactose free milk and cut out his dairy intake. There are several different medications you can try. Combined with diet modification it is usually pretty effective, although you feel so bad for them. Good luck.

ugh, sorry to hear about the reflux. Welcome to our club :( I hope they can find a medicine that works well for him.
