Would just appreciate a bit of advice.
DS is 8 and suffered as a baby with an undiagnosed illness which caused very severe projectile vomiting. Lots of investigation, no proper answer other than 'several intolerances' - also not specified!
Through trial and error we have established that he is intolerant to eggs and nuts - not dangerously so - they just 'hurt' his mouth and make him sick.
At 4 he had his tonsils and adenoids removed and grommits fitted and the improvement was spectacular.
My ongoing worry is his size. He is really small - prob about the size of a 5 yo. He eats a varied diet and is getting much more adventurous with food. Eating used to be a massive issue as he nearly always threw up his whole meal and had to be fed again!
He is asthmatic and has allergies that make his asthma worse/itchy eyes etc.
Just after a bit of help from anyone in a similar situation re building him up a bit. He won't eat butter or cheese so can't throw that on everything. Any ideas?
