She came down with a low grade fever last Saturday. I admit I panicked at the first sign of it and headed straight for the doctor and insisted on antibiotics.
On hindsight I should have waited and monitored. Now her tummy's not taken well to the antibiotics (again) - it damages the gut flora - and she's not been able to hold down her milk. Even the Omeprazole she's on, which is supposed to reduce acid production, is not helping.
This is what comes up when we vent (take out the air from) her stomach. Really wondering what this means.
The good thing is that the fever is gone. Hoping to get some answers from the visit to the GI doctor next week.

Oh May, I am so sorry Vera isn't well. Will be hoping you get some answers. This whole gut and UTI thing is really driving me crazy. I need to remember it isn't her heart, cancer or soemthing else crazy. Pray that you all stay well and Vera gets to feeling better.
Looks like the tummy has alot of wind. Jonathan takes colimix prescribed by GP whenever has tummy flu and alot of wind too. Hope she gets better soon!
thanks Serene. will check about colimix with her GI doc.
