We headed to G-ville today to have upper GI and then see the gastro. Camden still hates upper GIs just as much as he did before. He let us know this, poor guy. Nissin looks good, no reflux.
So then we headed to GI to address his oral aversion etc. Well, that is why we had the appointment in the first place, but let me back up....
Camden has decided to really take an interest in eating and drinking. He will eat rice now and drink out of an Elmo juice box. OK, I am so overjoyed and beyond excited AND so happy to be seeing this.....but, he is having some swallowing difficulties. Ex: He ate a tiny piece of ham one day then the next day he ate a few tablespoons of rice. Then he gagged and hocked up all the rice AND the ham from day before. This has happened a few times so in my opinion things arent making their little way down the esophagus. So Dr doesnt want to pursue eating ( wants us to be gentle) until we take Camden in for ANOTHER upper GI next week. This time with an NG tube to see the throat since he wont do the barium orally. Today we just did it through his gtube. We couldnt do it today because he had already started to eat his new addiction. (rice)
Let me add: Dr thinks this is NOT CDH related because I have a restricted esophagus, esopagitis, hiatal hernia etc blah blah blah so he believes this could be hereditary. UGH! Let me add to the problems =( But we wont know anything for sure until next week.
On a good note.....we are having a bday party for Camden this Saturday. Mommy has invited everybody and it is gonna be a good old time of celebrating Camden! I was too nervous to have a big party last year, so Im braving the germs this year. =) It is gonna be great!
