After seeing the gastro specialist at Starship yesterday for DD, we are currently waiting to have a gastroscope. He has said that she possibly has EE.

The specialist is going to try and get DD's scope done ASAP due to her bad FTT and the fact that at 15months we have still not found a food that she can tolerate.

I have heard that the gastroscopes at Starship are only done once a month (not completely sure if that is true or not...). We will have to organise leave from work for DH and childcare for our son - does anyone know which day of the month they usually do the procedure?

Many thanks

Don't know but big hugs!

its a wednesday and its really well set up there to distract whilie your waiting. good luck

Thanks Eleanor - I'm really hoping that it's not EE .

Wizz - do you know if it's the first, second etc Wednesday of the month? DH finds it hard to get leave at this time of the year, so it might be best for us to take a guess and at least get it pencilled in.

Thanks!

Hi
we got a phone call 1 week before the day so much notice but it was done on the 14th of july. I hope that helps.

Thanks Melissa - that's a big help!
