What we know so far...


Tests they have/will run:
1. Upper GI test (barium)
2. Lower GI test (barium)
3. Intestine Motility test
4. X-rays
5. Biopsy
6. Blood work

What we have learned:
1. His stomach is not working fast enough so the food is not getting through his system very well... which is why he is getting sick and in pain
2. He will most likely not need surgery!!! :-)
3. He does not have an obstruction or stenosis
4. He has been switched over to a hypoallergenic formula
5. The doctors are adding extra calories to his formula so we can decrease the volume to make it easier on his system.
6. He is still not gaining weight
7. He will be put on a medication to help his system motility


He is still very uncomfortable most of the time so please pray that his pain will decrease will the feeding plan and medication.

Thanks for your support and prayers!
