Ds now aged 12 was taken off Formula at about 8 weeks due to milk allergy and prescribed soya milk, he can now tolerate a little dairy but is largely dairy free since.
For the past two years he has been lacking in energy, muscle aches and pains and severe stomach pain.
We had seen numerous GP's consultant paediatrician etc and could not get to the bottom of the problem. Last week we discovered he is seriously low on Calcium and Vitamin D and has a stomach ulcer due to the ibuprofen he has been taken for the pain.
I am seriously annoyed it has taken two years to get a diagnosis and that we were never sent to a dietician when he was taken of milk.
If you or your child don't take dairy products for whatever reason please look at your (their) intake of calcium and Vitamin D.
