My baby was what multiple doctors deemed sicky, he would vomit constantly, he had a rash that no-one would diagnose, the rash as it was eventually diagnosed was uricartia. He was so underweight that the Health Visitor stopped recording his weight whilst telling me to just feed him. GP's and Paedatric Registrars misdiagnosed as Colic, Reflux, VURTI and GORD. They also refused to give him the milk he needed despite him choking on his vomit whilst he slept. One GP told me that he knew nothing about baby formula and asked me to explain the differences to him. After a 5 and a half month battle, 2 suspected meningitis scares, and my son being dangerously underweight we finally saw a Doctor who listened to us. She was brilliant, she agreed on what the allergies might be and prescribed the milk I'd been fighting for.
