Friday was a complete waste of time. We went in and explained how James was still only having the neocate advance and eating raisins. How he looked frightened if you even attempted to give him anything else. How on the odd occasion that James had tried anything different that it would usually end up in him screaming in pain at night pulling at his stomach, mucousy nappies and an eczema flare. First of all the paed Gp did not believe that was all he was having and said that on the last letter from the hospital (which he read off the computer whilst I was there) it did not state that James needed to be on such a restricted diet. I said I know that but James will not eat anything else. He then suggested to give him toast with butter and a soft boiled egg as most children love this. I then stated that James is allergic to egg, wheat and dairy and whilst we can get safe bread and a safe sunflower spread James will not even touch it so no chane of him eating it. He then suggested to keep a food diary as this would help to find the foods that he reacts to, like we have not done this before. I then stated that all it would consist of is food that he is offered and then taken away as he will not eat it and neocate and raisins of course. He then asked what I would like him to do as he is not a specialist and I explained that we wanted a referal for a second opinion. I gave a list of hospitals that had allergy specialist and GI specialists. He said that he would not consider refering James at this point until we have had the next appointment with James's consultant and explained the whole situation otherwise we could upset the consultant as he has been seeing James for a long time now. I responded by saying that he has done a lot for James when it comes to his eczema but nothing seems to be being done to help James atthe moment. After a long talk he said that he will refer James after the next appointment if we still feel nothing is being done to help but it would be to another paediatric consultant as he feels that they are specialised enough to deal with situatins like this. Well in James's experience so far that is certainly not true. In a couple of months we should have more money coming in so will be able to pay for a private consultation for James to try and get things moving. I just felt so fustrated, annoyed and completely let down by the nhs after the appointment. This should certainly not be the case when a child is concerned.
