What else could it be besides acid reflux?
April 22nd, 2008 | by admin |MPTeach asked:
My 9 month old son has been diagnosed by a GI specialist with acid reflux. However, the medication he gave my son, Prevacid, almost seems to be making him worse. He’s got so much gas and burps that he keeps waking himself up from naps after 30-40 minutes. Sometimes he’s crying, but he always has to burp or pass gas. Is there a possibility that it could be something else? Did anyone else have this problem?

What kind of testing did they do?
Breast or bottle feeding?
Did you try lifestyle changes before meds? If so which?
