On the way home we stopped at Olivers to find some dairy free food for her. Her Gluten Free/Dairy Free diet started as soon as we got her tested. The Silk Almond milk (vanilla and chocolate) are good and she doesn't mind them. None of us liked the coconut milk. I thought it tasted like barium that I had to drink for my GI tests as a kid. It had a good after taste but overall, not great. Hannah didn't like the Almond yogurt and I didn't care for the texture either. She tolerates her dairy free "cheese" when it is melted but it doesn't look very good to me.
Since getting off of these foods, her belly looks smaller and her tummy aches are all but gone. I talked to her pediatrician yesterday. We are waiting on one lab to come back, but the rest of them are back. It shows negative tests for Celiac disease. The CBC and metabolic panel was good. The only thing that was off was her Vitamin D was a bit low. Weird since she drinks a ton of milk, eats lots of yogurt and cheese too. Plus she takes a Flinstone Vitamin with Vitamin D in it.
Thank-you all for you prayers. I covet them. God is good and is in complete control of everything, including my sweet child. I fully trust Him to take care of her and to give Chris and I wisdom as we seek to help her feel better.
