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.
