Good morning...I hate to see that you have joined our group of bloody stool moms! It is so, so frustrating and worrisome. We still don't know the origin of Harley's problem, only that we started with all of the same possibilities (minus the hibiscus). I had tried raw food, thinking it was better for my little ones, and also bully sticks. Harley started with these bloody episodes, that sometimes included vomiting - sometimes not, about 6 months apart, then 3 months, and then they began to get more and more frequent. They always began with loss of appetite for about 24 hrs prior to the mucusy, bloody stool. There seemed to be so much blood when it did occur, that it was frightenting - even to the point of having to start IV therapy a couple of times; that was when it was coupled with the vomiting. Anyway, we don't know what caused it, but we are still treating it and tomorrow will be 10 weeks without an "episode". I give him absolutely nothing by mouth except his prescription food and medications...not even pill pockets. The Dr at A&M said NOTHING else - and so far, so good! I was so desperate and scared for him, I have done everything they told us to do and it has worked. I have a sneaking suspicion it may have been the bully sticks, also, because when I gave them to Harley he was like a total bully stick addict! Good luck to you - I hope you figure this out - it is so stressful for us to see our babies so sick. |
