My poor baby girl

5 out of the last 6 days Kaylie has thrown up during/after a feed. Up until now she had been doing better and all of a sudden it hit us like a mac truck. The worst part to all of this is that her explosive fits have changed form. Before it was open mouth out it comes (exorcist like) and now it is in the form of a retch. If you have not experienced retching I do not recommend it. I have not been bothered by her eating issues until this started and all I can do is close my eyes and hope she can get over it sooner than later. Because of all of this and a few new things that she has been doing with her feeds we are going to have another upper endoscopy tomorrow morning. The crazy thing is I talked to him today he scheduled it for tomorrow. That is good service. He told us that their is a chance that the things they were looking for last June could actually be here now. That means they are looking for the Eosiniphilic Esophagitus again as well as other issues that can cause mass exodus of her meals. He also mentioned that it could have to do with her Advair. Occasionally oral steroids can cause thrush of the esophagus. I am actually curious to see if this is it. This would explain why she had a random yeast (sorry too much info) infection a few weeks ago without having been on any antibiotics.

Please pray that she will do well with this procedure. I honestly do not think they are going to find anything major. The only thing I think might come up would be the thrush of the esophogus. That would be an easy fix. Please pray she handles the anesthesia well. I am not too concerned about it. This will be her 4th time to be put under and it is a short procedure.

We will have preliminary results tomorrow but then they will send of a sample to be biopsied. We will let you know once we find out.
