Guest guest Posted April 24, 2000 Report Share Posted April 24, 2000 had his endo this morning. They also placed a PH probe. The GI said his esophagas was a mess, which is worse than in Dec. when it was healed. We will have the biopsy results next week. The Dr. said depending on what the PH probe shows will depend on the next step. Does anyone know what a normal PH is? Mostly so far today it has stayed around 6.6. Once he burped and got pain and it went down to 2.1. The Dr. said we could try flovent twice a day again or oral steroid tablets, or formula, if it still looks liike the trouble is eosinophils. I don't like the idea of tablet steroids though espically where is missing one of his kidneys. Anyway, wouldn't he still need to have formula since he has been strictly avoiding all foods he tested allergic to since last July, and the damage has gotten worse. Has anyone had to start their older child on a formula? How did you break it to him? How did they take the news?
