Yesterday's upper GI scan went just fine. Everything is the right shape, size and position. We did see some 'trace reflux', which was no surprise to anyone. Monkey did a great job sucking down the barium - he took that bottle much better than he has ever taken a bottle at home! When the nurse took it away to see how much he had drank, he protested loudly until she gave it back. Unfortunately, they did not send us home with a parting gift of barium to add to his bottles.
In a few hours we will be meeting with our Brilliant Pediatrician again, with a collection of dirty diapers for her to test. We are expecting her to find blood as they did at Prestigious Children's Hospital. Also, we expect Monkey to flirt outrageously with her, as he always does. We'll be going over everything and talking about diets and allergies and all of that. Hopefully we'll feel like we're getting somewhere with this when we're done.
Thanks to everyone for thinking of us. We appreciate it!
