Went to see Top Paed Doctor in Surrey yesterday, privately through BUPA. I still haven't got an appointment throught he NHS and it has been over a month, but thats another story.
He said that he didn't think ds2 had reflux. and to stop the gaviscon, ranitidine and domperidone, immed, because he had been on theem a month and we had seen no improvememnt.
He thinks he is very windy. And there is nothing that can be done, thta I aren't already doing.
He suggested weaning him asap. Give it a few weeks he said. That will make 15 weeks. Less than 4 months.
He said that having somethig more substantial in his stomach might aid digestion and cut down on the wind.
He was very old school. And I know the 'guidelines', are for normal, healthy children, which mine is not. But...... having given it some thought, I just find this hard to accept.
