Abigail's EGD. - Parent-2-Parent & Reflux in Children

**iamblessed** · May 6th, 2006, 01:00 AM

I talked to the nurse today about rescheduling it but I told her that, if Noah needed any more testing, I wanted to do both on the same day as I lose a whole day of work plus spend $50 on gas and lunch every time we drive there!
So, she said as soon as Dr. L tells her what is in store for Noah, she will schedule both.
In the meantime, she said he wants to try her on Prevacid and see if that helps her abdominal pain.

I hope they will be able to schedule both the kids on the same day. Please keep us posted on the date/s and how she does on the Prevacid.

I hope it does. Tristan was having some issues with such severe stomach aches he would pass out. I was thinking he had appendacitis, or some kind of bowel obstruction. I thought when they put him on prevacid, the doctors were crazy, but you know it has helped!

Good luck Merilla, you are dealing with a lot right now!!!
