She is covered in mucus and throws up can't take bolus feedings with the ped but formula she she clears up and is well and developes. We have been going through this for over 6mo were at times she was so sick i thought she was going to die. I have only connected this in the last 2 weeks although i told the dr. i thought this was a posability over 6mo ago. do you have any ideas i know someone her age needs more noutritionally than formula. can you tell me what was finally done for you. sorry about the rambling i am so excited to see my daughter well and need to know how to get the dr. to believe this IS the problem. I haven't seen her smile or laugh in so long till now and i just want it to keep going.
PLEASE give me any info you can we see him on friday

Hi,

As far as I remember, they just kept trying different feeds until they found one that worked (not very scientific, I know). However, two of my siblings have tested as having food allergies (to the same foods). I may also have been having motility and/or medication issues at the time...it can be complicated.

Good luck!

My child ifs two years of age and has no milk allergies. The doctor recommended that I give her half a bottle of pedia sure after her meal because she's a very picky eater. That first night she coughed all night long like she was choking. Coughing and crying because she was restless because of the choking cough. She had just started daycare do my first mind was a snotty nose kid had gotten my Angel sick! Boy was I wrong!!!!! It's the pedia sure she started vomiting from the excessive choking cough. Every single night when she laid down after she ate and took her bath.....another sleepless night for the both of us. I was use to changing a wet paper in the middle of the night but geesh! Vomit too! Her doctor said that it wasn't the pedia sure, that she had a virus. I took her off it and tried hand feeding her myself. So independent, she refused me feeding her. But at the beginning of this month I wanted to try giving it to her again because she isnt eating well. She did the same thing cough and thew up!!!!! Her taste buds are New do I know they enjoy the taste, so it can't be that. I drank a bottle tonight so I could see how it makes me feel and I'm sick too the stomach right now! Something isn't right about pedia sure.

Hello.

Welcome to the NeuroTalk Support Groups.
I just wanted to let you know that you've posted on a thread that was started September of 2006 and the last post was from 2008.

This Child Neuro forum isn't particularly busy these days but from memory there were some other posts/threads regarding pediasure and in some of the other forums here as well.
