Quick Update on the Blitz

Today my friend Hazel came to see me;  she lives in England so it was a true treat!  I could have used about 4 days of her but I am very grateful for the hours we had!

Since I was so busy soaking up the Hazel Love, it took me a while to get to my laptop but the biopsy results are in:

The Blitz, bless him, does not have Celiac disease.  I am so very grateful.  So he has a wheat allergy but all other glutens are fine.  His colon is fine.  In a surprise turn, he does have reflux.  Who knew?

This makes life easier as it is much less limiting, and he could outgrow the allergy.  It also won't be SO critical if he gets a bit of wheat now and then.  That said, he feels oh so much better since we have eliminated wheat completely and I fully intend to keep him away from it. 

Anyway, Yay!!

The Blitz Fine - Mama Breathing Easy

The Blitz had an endoscopy and partial colonoscopy today, under general.  I was worried but did not let on to him and he was a perfect angel.  The surgery nurses are all in love.  He never even cried!

They are looking for celiac disease.  They did biopsies, the results of which will be in next week.  We love our Pedi GI - Dr. Barrad at Scott&White in Round Rock.  We'll let you know what we find out.
