Hey there,

Madison has had this g-j tube since early August and ever since she

got it she has been having problems with vomiting. SHe takes her

Zantac like she's supposed to and gets vented. She's supposed to be

on continues feeds of peptamine Jr 40cc an hour. But we have had to

turn the pump off for an hour 3 times a day and now we recently had

to turn the rate down over night to 20cc just to get through the

night without vomiting. She has an appointment to see a new GI doc on

the 15th so i hope they are able to do something. Any suggestions

would be great.

Very frustrated,

Chrissy

Hi,

Is Zantac the only reflux med she is on? Maybe she needs a stronger

med like Prilosec which decreases the vomiting?

Just a thought,
