Reflux Update

We saw Corina's GI doctor today (4-28-11) to get a new plan now that she's over a year and still needing thickener, meds, and having flare-ups. He scheduled her for an endoscopy (May 18) to test for esophageal allergies. If this comes back positive he will treat with a localized steroid for her esophagus and/or (not completely clear on if it's both or one or the other) MAJOR dietary restrictions. He only mentioned part of the list of foods she would be unable to eat, and I was already wondering what she would be able to eat. If the test comes back negative, he'll have to rethink the meds she's currently on and exactly what step to take next. Needless to say prayers would be appreciated because this is going to be a process either way.

Just because she's cute....
