Same with BJ, no real difference on or off the Gastrocrom. We just took BJ off

Prednisone (again), this last time was a continous 8 months. He has gone back

to constant diarrhea and tummy pain (SIGH!). We go back to see the GI on

Friday.

If it went to quickly, I would get really sick. Not to be discouraging,

just be cautious with the weaning.

That is what Im worried about. He takes 10mg 2 times a day. I am afraid that

since it took a few months to finally wok and he hasn't had a migraine in 2

months, but if we wean him off, which I don't know how to do, I assume it

will take about 2 weeks to be weaned off, then once he is off, he needs to

have it out of his body for 8-10 days before they will do the skin prick

tests, then we can start him back on it, but in the mean time his migraines

will probably start up again. This really stinks!!

Thanks, I am nervous. Luckily, BJ's weight has been pretty steady and he

has actually been growing.
