Cautiously Optimistic

Taylor had her fourth endoscopy today. Keep your fingers crossed. We're cautiously optimistic that her esophagus has healed. You're not ever 'cured' of EE, however, it can actually go into what they call remission. Bouts of flare ups can be triggered by the slightest things...food, allergens/toxins in the air or pH level change in ones system.

Needless to say, her GI said that to the naked eye, under scope today, it looks like her esophagus has healed. He doesn't want us to get our hopes up, as it won't be confirmed until her biopsy results are in. But he's got a good feeling about it.

What does that mean? It means that any of the foods she's eating are not causing her problems. Her body is tolerating her fruits, veggies, berries, potatoes,beans and rice products. It doesn't mean that we can add new food yet, but there's a chance we might get to! Stay tuned...
