pH probe results

The pediatric G.I. called me on the Wednesday after the procedure with the results to the pH probe. Tye refluxed 47 times in the 24 hours during the study. The majority of them were while he was eating and after eating which would explain why he doesn't enjoy eating too much. From 12 to 1 a.m. he pretty much refluxed the whole hour. Then again in the morning he had an hour when he refluxed 10 times. The results were clear that Tye is suffering and will benefit greatly from the fundoplication surgery. The surgery is scheduled for December 4th. It will be a difficult time with the holidays but Bob and I believe we can not let Tye suffer any more by waiting. The surgeon informed me that Tye will be in the hospital 2-3 days. My mom will be coming on the 3rd to give us any support that we need. Tye will be on a strict pureed diet for at least 4 weeks until after his 2nd check up with the surgeon. We will see her the week after the surgery and then when we return to Idaho after Christmas.
