Journey With Nathan: 37%...
http://journeywithnathan.blogspot.com/2013/03/37.html
Monday, March 18, 2013. I talked to Dr. Williams tonight and Nathan's gastric emptying test showed that Nathan's stomach is emptying 37% in 90 minutes. A normal individual's stomach should empty at the rate of 50% in 90 minutes. So yes, he has gastroparesis. :o(. Unfortunately, there aren't many options other than taking medicines to treat gastroparesis. So Nathan will begin taking Erythromycin (a low dose antibiotic, grr! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Journey With Nathan: August 2011
http://journeywithnathan.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 17, 2011. Nathan had his third scope with biopsies done today and also go this PEG tube switched out to the AMT Mini One Balloon Button. He did great! Thanks to the many prayers being sent our way today! Dr Williams said that his esophagus looked good, so we are hopeful that the biopsies will second that. This will be excellent news which may mean that avoiding the top 8 allergens will allow Nathan to be symptom free! We are so excited about the AMT button! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Journey With Nathan: February 2012
http://journeywithnathan.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 21, 2012. Just wanted to share the recipes I used to make Nathan's safe birthday cake and cookies this year! They're free of all the top 8 allergens and were pretty good! I might try switching up some of the "flours" in the future to see if I can make it even better! The sugar cookie recipe was a hit and everyone loved them! So thankful to have alternative options for baking for our sweet boy who deserves a yummy treat like these from time to time! Test cookie was a success! 4) Bake at ...

http://journeywithnathan.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. We found it at Target Pharmacy. it's OTC. But you have to ask the pharmacy for it! This morning his tummy look beautiful! The GT is not completely gone, but I can tell that it is going away and hopefully will stay that way! We will keep using the Calmoseptine and pray that it will keep it from re-occurring. Today is kind of a big day for Nathan in way of his food trials. he is trialing CHICKEN! I am so thankful to finally be able to offer him a complete meal! Biopsy Results Are In.

Journey With Nathan: October 2011
http://journeywithnathan.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 28, 2011. Alright, so in the world of EoE as we have always known, things can change and they can change quickly. We were blessed to have such a smooth couple of months in a row with Nathan. They all evaluated Nathan together and individually so that they could put their minds together on the best approach to help Nathan. Nathan working on his chewing exercises. We are headed to Mark's parent's church annual Trunk or Treat tonight, Nathan will be going as Mickey Mouse! Eosinophilic gastor...

Tyler C with EE: Tyler's new look
http://tylercwithee.blogspot.com/2011/05/tylers-new-look.html
Tyler C with EE. Friday, May 20, 2011. Through the nose, over the ear, then taped to the back. Placement wasn't a fun thing for me. The nurse has done it for 19 years, only hit the airway once. "Chances of doing that are slim.". Mental note: Make sure the end port is closed when inserting. Here is to hoping he won't pull it out when he's in his crib. We had to do syringe feedings last night because the pump isn't getting delivered until this afternoon. So far so good. May 20, 2011 at 1:07 PM. Eosinophils...

Tyler C with EE: ? (for other EE moms)
http://tylercwithee.blogspot.com/2011/06/for-other-ee-moms.html
Tyler C with EE. Sunday, June 19, 2011. For other EE moms). The GI wanted to wait until after Tyler's 2nd scope and "personal baseline" before starting food(s) that had reactions on the patch test. The scope is done so we started apples last night. He ate some. By some I mean 2 tablespoons. We tried again this afternoon and he took a small bite then wasn't interested. He refused the apples by turning his head while also pushing the spoon away with his hand. June 20, 2011 at 10:50 AM. Maybe dumping some a...

Tyler C with EE: Patch Test Results
http://tylercwithee.blogspot.com/2011/04/patch-test-results.html
Tyler C with EE. Wednesday, April 13, 2011. Tyler was happy today. Happy because these things. The nurse came in to take the patches off. We were disappointed because initially he had more of a rash/reaction to the darn tape than the foods. She removed the patches then outlined where the foods were and numbered them. The nurse said Tyler was/is her best patient because usually kids cry and wiggle during this. We have to watch these circle for 5 days, noting daily changes. Positive Foods (don't eat).

Tyler C with EE: May 2011

Tyler C with EE. Friday, May 27, 2011. Quick Weight Check / Allergist Visit Update. Tyler had an allergist visit yesterday so I figured I'd kill 2 birds with 1 stone and do a quick weight check at the GI's office since it's less than a mile from the allergist office. (The allergist doesn't have an infant scale and the plop-him-on-the-scale-with-clothes-and-a-diaper weight skews any progress.) The scale read 19 lbs 12.4 ounces, a 7.4 oz gain in one week. Wahoo!

Tyler C with EE: March 2011
http://tylercwithee.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tyler C with EE. Saturday, March 26, 2011. The History Part 1. Pregnancy with Tyler, not so fun. During the entire pregnancy I could not drink milk, eat any nuts, peanut butter, eggs, cheese, tomatoes, and any form of meat. Being that it was 100% different than my other pregnancies (all of which resulted in 4 boys), we fooled ourselves into thinking it was a girl. We fooled ourselves into thinking we were entirely prepared for whatever Baby TyTy threw at us because we were "experienced" parents. APPETITE...
