Re: Food Intolerence

[Guest guest]

Dear Elaine,

We are way behind on our e-mails as usual but wanted to let you know that our

five year old CHARGER is experiencing somewhat of the same symptoms as your

little one. Abby has had mucous in her stools that was an unusual color. Her

pediatrician tested the mucous and sure enough it was blood. We visited

Abby's general surgeon and her GI doctor. X-rays showed she is full of stool

and her colon is enlarged. We have done suppositories and must give her two

doses of duphalac (lactulose) 15cc and 4oz of prune juice per day. Abby is

on Isomil only by G-tube and takes no food orally. We have to do the above

for two months and then return to her GI doctor. Her GI doctor wants her to

have two stools per day and unfortunately that is not happening yet. Her

doctors feel that a hard piece of stool irritated the lining of her

intestines/colon and that is the reason for the bloody discharge. Good luck

and I hope your situation improves. By the way we live in land. When

are you visiting your relatives?

Elaine,

I don't think I mentioned this before, but if I did I'm sorry.

KK not to long ago had a problem with diarrhea. She was just on a

antibiotic for an ear infection. Well the medicine gave her diarrhea.

When you stop taking it , it should go away. Well her's didn't. So they

too did a stool check. Found out that, that medicine causes mites and

that causes diarrhea. Can even get worse if not treated. See if you can

have them check for that. Then if it is, all he has to do is take

another kind of antibiotic to kill off the mites and that will do the

trick. Good luck with that. Hope you hear back soon.

Korey mom to KK
