sorry for the dealy in posting i came down with another sickness bug yesterday!
no firm answers from the doctor but the route she is going down is the allergy one for now. he has swollen abdominal nodes (which she says may be from his condition), some reflux, the diarrhea, and raised IgE levels in his bloods, which all indicate some sort of allergic response. she is going to review the biopsies taken during the scopies in her team meeting and get back to us regarding further testing as to what the allergy is.
For now he is on a reflux medicene and she has given him some concentrated probiotics to try to settle his bowel. They may then change the sort of milk he is on when the rest of the testing is done.
When he is next having diarrhea she wants a repeat sample as she feels it may contain sugars as it is causing such a rash, but i'm not clear what she meant by this.
she also wants to retest his bloods at some point as fibrinogen (a clotting agent) was reduced in function, but is in no hurry as he has after all been fine during surgery.
