Guest guest Posted August 10, 1998 Report Share Posted August 10, 1998 Hi everyone, I have been offline for a few days and just read all my messages. Sharon, the bios are a wonderful idea. I know you are incredibly busy right now so if I can be of any assistance please don't hesitate to ask. is doing pretty good currently so I have some free time. Regarding excema, had horrible excema from birth to three months. He was covered with scabs on his face head and chest. When we switch to Neocate it cleared up. We also had some success in mixing Bactriban and cortizone cream to stop some of the worst of it. Regarding growth and growth hormones. has barely made it onto the charts in height. The nutritionist feels this may be a result of the disease. We were told not to worry about until he is al least three. At that point we may address growth hormones. RE: pregnancy. Mine was horrible. Bleeding, Best rest, gestational diabetes, severe reflux and kidney problems. All followed by the birth of my 12 lb 2 oz wonder (c- section). was in NICU for 4 days for hypoglycemia. While in NICU they also documented feeding problems and no BM until 4 days old. When I asked 's GI about chances of outgrowing this disease, he said there is no conclusive information about chances of outgrowing it.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 1998 Report Share Posted August 10, 1998 Jen, I was on Bed rest, had terrible reflux myself (I downed bottles and bottles of tums along with zantac) and I also had gestational diabeties. Had to take insulin and monitar sugar levels. Was yours this bad? I used to never have reflux. Now I can't get rid of it. I am on Previcid for it. ---------- > From: Jenericm@... > To: eosinophilic gastroenteritis (AT) onelist (DOT) com > Subject: [eosinophilic gastroenteritis] misc 8/10 > Date: Monday, August 10, 1998 9:30 AM > > > > Hi everyone, > > I have been offline for a few days and just read all my messages. > > Sharon, the bios are a wonderful idea.

The three hour test came back negative so they didn't follow up. They only admitted that I had gestational diabetes after my kidneys started to shut down and was born sooo large with a blood sugar of 10.
