Guest guest Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Hello every one, I hope every one is doing well. On the 15th Taniea had a GI appointment with Dr. Altaf at the OU Children's medical center in OKC. It went relitively well but this is what he had to offer. He wants to start with a barium swallow to see what is going on after that depending on the results do another motility test and if surgery is an option then that would be the next step. He said I needed to increase her prilosec to two times a day at least for a month. He also said that the pain she is experiencing sounds as if her esophagus is contracting to get the stuck food down. Last night however I can say with out a doubt she had a spasm she rated it a 10 and we tried stretching and ice packs which seemed to provide some relief. She is reguritating again and food is getting stuck even with lots of fluids. If you all have any advice please feel free to offer I am always reading. Thank you Shamira Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
