We went and saw the GI Doctor this week. And although he has made progress we still have A LONG way to go!
Doc is happy with the progress he has made, but wants to try some other things and MAY want to do more blood work.
Jaymeson is now on an Enzyme for helping to digest his fats. We have been praying for everything to get better now that he is on this. However yesterday and today have not been great days. After pooping about 6 times yesterday and then about 4 so far today his butt is RAW.
Because of his body not digesting both fats and sugars well his poop is VERY acidic. Josh has wanted to add on a room to our house JUST for diaper changes. It is the stinkiest poop I have ever, ever smelled. And the acid in his poop is horrible to his skin.
I have had to put Neosporin with pain relief on it just so he can sit. And a special diaper rash cream to beat the acid....
Equal parts Aquaphor and Creamy Desitin and Mylanta. I know it sounds weird, but the antacid in the Mylanta works to protect his cute little bottom from the acid in his poop.
We go back in two weeks and will keep you updated!
