[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 367666, member: 8831"] who diagnosed both of your children with infantile anorexia? thats not exactly a common diagnosis in a young child....and to have two in the same family would be pretty unusual. have either of your children seen a PEDIATRIC gastroenterologist and/or a geneticist and had [I]thorough[/I] testing to see why they dont eat? are you close to a major childrens hospital? i would be [B]very[/B] concerned that someone is missing a medical reason for your childrens difficulties--and it could be a range of things from malabsorption issues to eosinophilic esophagitis to simple reflux, to a stricture, to the mechanics of chewing/swallowing, to heaven knows what....but you really, REALLY need to make sure every iota of a medical reason is ruled out. and its just not a job for the pediatrican--you would need someone specialized to know what to look for, and specialized testing (ph probes, biopsies, etc) to determine the cause. sorry to hear you had a rough weekend ;-( [/QUOTE]
