well we have had some interesting and crazy weeks lately, but i will keep this pretty basic, i switched pulmo docs to one in the same group, but she is closer to our house, anyhow, we saw her and she called me today with some test results and told me she looked over his huge chart, and at old films, she had different opinion on things other docs have dismissed or weren't sure of, one of them being reflux. so pulmo said to add blue food coloring for about 2 weeks to every feed or taste. then write down results and let them know if i suction out any blue from the trach. so hopefully this will give us some answers! i know a lot you guys are in the same boat, different opinions, no real major symptoms of reflux, so i thought i'd pass along some info. take care
