Joey had an endoscopy . . . on Aug 24th actually. He was having symptoms of reflux or GERD disease and so his allergist suggested we take enroll him in a study that is for reflux. He was a trooper, he needed general anesthesia, but he kind of thought that was cool. Missing a day of school is cool too!! He had to watch what he ate for the next hrs so Mike and I took him to Baskin Robbins for a special treat when it was all said and done. So currently he is enrolled in the study and because he has a stomach infection he is only some major antibiotics. The meds do seem to help, he will get another endoscopy to see the progress so . . . I will let all know how that goes!

  1. I had NO idea he/you all were going through this! Which just proves that we don't talk often enough! I hope that all goes well. He will be in our prayers!

  2. Oh, thanks. He thinks the antibiotics are yuck, but other than that he gets the study meds stirred into yogert so no complaints there. He is a little Mike in ways when it comes to all of the allergy stuff!
