Okay so...

...about a bottle and a half of Tylenol, a bottle and a half of Advil, a bottle and a half of antibiotics and almost a bottle of eye drops and it seems Lorelei is mostly better.  She stopped having fevers on Tuesday.  We're just finishing off her antibiotics right now.  We started to treat the other eye because it was looking a bit red and I think we avoided a full blown infection in that eye.

Ethan came home on Wednesday morning a bit congested but otherwise is doing well.  He's very chatty which is lovely to hear!  :)  The downside is that he is still having a lot of tummy troubles.  Each morning he screams in pain and tenses up when we start the feed, produces some gas and then has a bowel movement.  I do not think he is still constipated and have started to inquire with the dietician if it could be his feed that he isn't tolerating.  On August 31st we started him on a reduced calorie (from 1.5 to 1.45 calories/ml) diet which had us blend two different feeds together.  To test this theory we are pulling out the additional feed and only giving him the original one.  I'm not sure if we'll see a change but at least it will rule out the feeds if he continues to have troubles.

In a couple weeks we will meet Ethan's 10th specialist (not counting his pediatrician, dentist, the periodontist he saw, the dental pathologist he saw, the dermatologist he saw nor the second opinion) for his Endocrinology appointment.  And this week we got a call that he will meet specialist #11 an allergist (who we're seeing for her immunology specialty) early next month.  Next week he goes for his hearing test and to see ENT - good timing given his recent bouts of ear infections; his GI doctor  - hopefully we'll get some answers about his tummy troubles; and he will be poked to test his blood gases.  Never a dull moment...
