Has anyone been diagnosed with DIOS? Distal Intestinal Obstruction

Syndrome. My 28 month old son, Ashton, has been vomiting half of

feedings (all g-tube and liquid luckily) over the past 3 weeks. It

has been a messy time in our house--thank goodness for hardwood

floors! The vomit and his stools were very mucuosy and gross. We

finally got to see his GI doctor today and he thinks it is DIOS.

Ashton did have a meconium ileus at birth (caused him to be

premature) that required surgery. He also has a g-tube. He didn't

have the distended belly that I see is a normal symptom of DIOS. The

doctor has prescribed Miralax (a laxative we have used before) for 4

days to totally clean him out. He will have diarhea for several days

(ugh!). I am just wondering if anyone else out there has had this

and what they did to treat it and if vomiting was one of the

symptoms??
