Hi, I finally found a Ped who would refer a Gastro and I believe I am going to

get the same test You got! I can't wait. Did she cry when they put the tube in

her nose? Well I am just happy to have another test because I just need to know

what is going on. Is the Prevacid still working? Is her appetite still Up?

Thanks,

Marla Eckert
