The results of Asher's endoscopy and pH probe came in today (insert drum roll here....):
Biopsy results show "intense eosinophilic infiltration". If you remember from an earlier post, eosinophilic esophagitis is an allergic reaction that manifests itself in the esophagus. No wonder the reflux medication didn't help him any. His pH probe study came back normal. (Did you know that everyone refluxes at some part of the day?)
At least now we know. And now we can give him the appropriate medicine which will treat his condition.
And for all those doctors who said this thing was behavioral and not medical, I give them a great big, "TTTHHHHPPPPPFFT".
There's a moral to this story: ALWAYS believe the mom.
