Thanks for thinking of us. Her scope looked fine, so we are very relieved at this point. It will take 2 to 3 weeks for biopsy results. He said the bloody mucus could have been a polyp that sloughed off. He said not to worry about mucus, which I find strange because everything I have read says...

Thank you all so much. I will definitely update tomorrow. You've all been a tremendous help and very welcoming. (((HUGS)))

Dusty, thank you (((HUGS))) We definitely will NOT be doing this again at home...and hopefully she won't need anymore scopes. She's not yet diagnosed, this scope in for investigation. I don't know how y'all do it....well, I do....you're mommies and grandmommies.....but it's very stressful not...

Well, the bloody mucus she was passing that earned her the scope was clear yellow jelly (sorry, gross, I know), but today it was white. No meds, just a chewable multivitamin. She's had 2 vasovagal episodes in the past, but not as bad as today, so while the stimulant made this one worse, she's...

Yeah, I wondered that too. I told them she wasn't constipated so it made no sense to clean her out and keep feeding her....and oral dulcolax is not recommended for children under 4....and she's the size of a large 2 year old. My husband doesn't even want to go through with it now because he...

(((HUGS))) I cannot imagine how scary that must have been for you :( I really appreciate you answering my questions. Her bloating has been one of our biggest worries. Because she is so tiny, she sometimes looks like a malnourished child, which we know she is not. But, we can't report diarrhea...

Thank you for your reply. Do you know if any other children have presented with IBD in this way, i.e. bloody mucus in bowel movements? Does there always have to be a diarrheal component? Is IBD progressive in nature, as in, could it start out with small episodes of inflammation, and then get...

Hello All! I do not have a child diagnosed with IBD, however, it was recently put on our radar, and I was hoping to get some information from the real experts (parents). My daughter, now almost 4, had severe GERD from birth to 18 months. She vomited multiple times a day, and ended up being FTT...
