Will try to be brief - was in hospital with DS2 for 2 weeks after developing reflux at aged 5wks. They did a PH test which showed he has v bad acid reflux but doesn't actually vomit.
He is taking Domperidone, Ranitidine and Omeprazole - but this last drug which is supposed to be the wonder one, appears to be creating more pain rather than reducing it. He screams when he has it and after (but not with the others) and it doesn't just appear to be a taste issue.
Despite the whole medicine cabinet being thrown at him he seems worse than when we went in, barely taking in half his feeds and screaming most of the time he is awake, including during feeds.
We are also switching to Nutramigen formula in case there is an intolerance or allergy aspect too.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips?
We are seeing consultant again next week but not sure if should stop Omeprazole beforehand.
