Reflux Frustration

Hi all -

I just need a place/moment to vent because I'm at my wit's end. My 9 month old spits up like CRAZY and I feel like I'm going crazy. I went through 3 receiving blankets within about 20 minutes because of all his spitting and then yesterday when I fed him bananas (one of the very few solid foods that he seems to tolerate okay) he spit up just about the whole jar. I had given him a new food (apples and blueberries) in the morning and I can't figure out if it's a delayed reaction to the apples and blueberries or if he's all of a sudden not handling the bananas very well. And then today he's just cried and cried and spit up and he hasn't pooed since about Friday. Ugh --- I just want to know how to help my little guy so that he feels well. He's such a happy baby when his tummy isn't upset, but I feel like he has to start eating solids at some point here!!! He's my 4th child, but I feel like I don't have a clue.

Plus, I'm going around in circles between my doctor, the insurance co., and the local lab, with getting what I need to have genetic testing done for me and to have it covered by our provider. This has been going on for 3 weeks and I just want to get the test done already. I need a healthy dose of some patience I think :blink:

Sounds like you need a vacation more than patience! I guess it'd be silly to ask if you can keep him sitting up and not lying down for a few hours after eating? That's my first thought. I've been having a lot of reflux/heartburn lately and had to start eating supper (and less of it!) earlier so I can have a few hours to digest before I lie down to sleep.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
