Reflux, CMPA? Help!

My little one is 8 weeks old.
At 4 weeks I noticed she was snuffly and wheezy- doctor said it will pass.
Last week we went to a&e and they said she has bronchitis.
Baby is formula fed. Was on kendamil stage 1 but switched her over to kendamil comfort.
Reason being- silent reflux, I could hear hear milk come up to her throat and then she swallows it back down.
Cries a good chunk of the night, only soothed when I bounce her.
During the day she seems unsettled too- has short periods in the bouncer without crying but then just wants to be held.
Has a bit of flaky skin on her eyebrows.
Since switching over to kendamil comfort the silent reflux has stopped. But the night time cries/screams are still very much there.
Her poos used to be yellow but are now green since switching over formula.
I feel so sad that she's in some sort of pain. Has anybody else been through this?

Does sound as though it could be CMPA to me. How many of these symptoms do they have?

Sounds very much like it could be Cmpa. You need to keep on at your GP because they're really crap about diagnosing Cmpa. It's always wait and see which is not what you want to hear when you've got a baby screaming in pain. So either try getting GP to give a dairy free formula or switch to one yourself and if you notice it makes baby better then go to the GP and tell them so you can be referred on to pediatrics for the dietician.
