MILK ALLERGY?

In most ways Witt is doing better! Through the night his oxygen saturation stayed up. His lungs seem to be doing well with just the CPT. He still has his stomach issue that seems pretty uncomfortable. The gastro specialists came by yesterday and OF COURSE Witt was not doing what he has been doing for the last several days! They made some changes in his medicines and recommended that Witt be "tested" for milk allergy. This involves taking Witt off the fortified breast milk and putting him on a special broken down formula. Witt will need to remain on this for several days. I believe that the change for today is to give the other diuretic in the feeding tube and not IV. Please pray that with this change Witt continues to hold his own on the fluid levels...okay...pray that he pees!!!! With each of these changes Witt is one step closer to going home!!!
