First of all, I apologize for taking so long to update about Taylor's appt. with the gastro specialist. Life is always crazy around here...plus we switched internet providers and that didn't happen without a few glitches.
Anyway, on to the appt. We met with Dr. Bax for about an hour on the 19th. He was concerned with Taylor's issues and was very interested in all of her symptoms (even those mysterious fevers she's been having). He encouraged us to do an endoscopy and a colonoscopy, which we scheduled for June 20th. While she is under he will be taking blood work, a urine sample and he will be doing a clean out (sorry TMI - this stuff isn't the most fun to talk about). He will be looking for signs of a protein allergy, lactose intolerance, celiac disease, reflux, etc. He wants to be very thorough and look for anything and everything. We were very impressed with him and his bedside manner with Taylor was great too.
So, needless to say, we are very anxious for the results from these tests. We do pray it will all go smoothly since this will be Taylor's first experience with anesthesia. Please pray she will not be afraid and she will come out of the anesthesia with no issues.
Thank you all for your emails, phone calls and prayers. We truly appreciate your concern.
On a side note - both Taylor and Bryce have colds...what fun!
More later...
