Hi all
First time posting although I've been lurking around the msg boards for a few years now. I'm stumped about my DS symptoms which indicate (to me at least) that he has some kind of allergy. He's 14mnths now, but since 3 weeks old has had colicky symptoms which have never really gone away. So we get very broken nights (up to 6/7 times a night he'll wake with a crampy stomach and try to pass wind etc) and a very tired unhappy little boy. I took him to the GP and he sent DS for skin prick testing which came back negative. Was disappointed as it has just confused me even more. Went back to the GP after a few weeks to say that symptoms haven't changed - i just know there is something wrong. He then suggested taking him off milk. So he's on almond and quinoa milk with some vit and min. supps. For the first week he slept 6 hours in a row (a 1st!)but since then his symptoms are back with a vengeance - bowel ache, wheezy, rubbing eyes , flatulence. Could it be the wheat in his diet or tomatoes maybe. It's just that his sympptoms were there before he was weaned. We also have cats - could they be the problem? I thought cat allergy was more of the rhinitis-y type, not digestive probs. Any advice - we're all a bit despondent at home as we feel we're getting nowhere and we can clearly see that he is in pain. Thanks ps sorry for such a long dump.
