Pedi GI nurses here?

I have a 23-month-old daughter who was diagnosed 3 months ago with baby GERD, who also had a c-diff infection from Septra suppression therapy. Poor kid had it coming out of both ends for a while. She is finally under control with Zantac and Reglan but her doc (rural FP) wants her blessed by a specialist. It took 3 months to get an appt and we have one in a week. If she's been controlled for 3 months are they gonna want to do anything like scopes or just observe her?

It will up to the doctor to decide. It can go either way. More than likely they will just observe her, but if she gets another flare-up, then they will definitely scope her.

Thanks. I was just wondering what to expect. I have no problem with a scope, just wondering if they'll want to put her through that when she's doing so well.
