Guest guest Posted April 11, 2000 Report Share Posted April 11, 2000 Dawn- That link that was sent a couple of days ago about the enterra device that was just approved by the FDA to speed delayed gastric emptying stated that the device was only being tested in five places - and KU med school in KC is one of them. I just thought it was interesting that so much GI research is going on in KC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son was never on formula, i was strictly breastfeeding. i'm just confused about what causes eg, and can they grow out of it and resume a normal diet. tracy (mom of Karson) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 12, 2000 Report Share Posted April 12, 2000 He never consumed anything but breast milk. I wonder if wheat would pass through if I ate it? Thanks for the help.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2000 Report Share Posted April 12, 2000 I also breast fed Alyssa for 18 mon. and she has EG,EE and EC and noone could give me a answer on how she got this I have been told some many things that I have gave up trying figure to how she got this to just focusing on how to deal with it, as far and all the sinus infections,URI and all that I have asked if it is connected and the GI said yes the ped. said he didn't know and the ENT said no but I have never heard of EG before, so you have your answers I don't know, apparently the bone spurs in the sinus cavities is caused from the prednisone, and the infection is caused possible by allergies and there is nothing that can help, so that is what I have been told, On the thought of leaky tubes Zevex told me to pass this along if anyone has this problem contact your supplier Alyssa has had to have 2 tubes replaced this month from leaky valves and finally I complained a rep came out to the house and looked at it and said yes it is leaking like i didn't know that, they took one back to the maker and said they didn't know why it was leaking but it was she said that we were the only family that complained and if there were more to come forward all buttins will be replaced free of charge and all Thanks , Tina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
