re: Vesicoureteral Reflux: Deflux Injection?!?

Hope they can figure out why Jamilyn is eating stuff like that! Yay for likely outgrowing the VUR and asthma! Thats some good news at least!

Her pedi said that it sounds like some kind of vitamin deffinancy but she said its not iron, she thinks its prob zink... so now she is on a multivitamin twice a day (along with the rest of the family) and since we've started giving her them she hasn't been eating anything that isn't food!!! So I think she was right!

thats awesome! glad THAT was an easy fix

I know right, just wish everything else was that easy as well!! lol...

We just got home from having my daughter's VCUG done... This was to see if the deflux worked... We saw reflux.. I'm really bummed. I know the doc said there are chances of it not working, but I hoped it would. She is 5 1/2 and has had VCUG's and radioactive kidney scans, and ultrasounds most of her little life. She has been on antibiotics most of her life as well. She has never been given anything during these tests, she has to endure the discomfort... And she is a trooper! I just want this all over with.

Have any of you seen eating issues with your children because of the antibiotics? She barely eats anything, and I think she is small for her age.
