Food Allergy

EOE ... need to vent yet again...

My 3-year-old was diagnosed with EOE a little over a year ago.  We went through so much with him (6 food elimination diet, then a radical elimination diet, then a course of swallowed budesinode....) The only thing that helped was the meds.  Once he was all healed up, we decided to try the 6 food elimination diet again to see his reaction.  He has been off the meds for almost 10 weeks and now the puking is starting all over again.

I just need to say that this *** is SO UNFAIR to a 3 year old!!!  This poor thing that vomitted 3x in the past 2 weeks.  (Meanwhile I puked once this morning and wanted to cry!!  Why does this have to happen to our kids??!!!  I really just want to go in my room and cry myself t sleep.  This sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok vent over.  Now back to reality... so i will call the GI doctor tomorrow, he;s going to request another endoscopy (this will be #5!!!!) and then probably put him back on the meds.  I hate this.  Hate hate hate.
