GI Test and Surgery Scheduled

The GI test went well today. She drank the barium liquid like it was nothing. Dr. Maxwell did the test and said he noticed a few things about her esophagus. One that doesn't influence her at all but is noted in his results was that a vein runs around her esophagus in the wrong direction. (Not sure what that means). He said the flap that closes her esophagus is not closing and most likely due to immaturity. He also noted that her esophagus doesn't push the food down strong like it should being a huge muscle. He told us that Dr. Ulshen would be in touch with his recommendations from this point.

Then we went to pre-op as her eye surgery to reduce the pressure in her eye is scheduled for next Wed. March 25th. She weighed in at 8 lb 5 oz today with her diaper and clothes on.

We are home now and she is finally resting.
