Hello, my name is Jean. I’m 34 years old and my son, Daniel, just turned 11 years old this past Thursday. Daniel was diagnosed with EoE over a year ago and we have tried different therapies to help him, but nothing has worked so far. I am here today because I’m concerned about Daniel’s poor nutrition because he has trouble swallowing. He has become a very slow eater, not finishing most of his meals as he always complains of feeling full quickly. He has not been gaining weight. Daniel was given a proton pump inhibitor a year ago after his diagnosis by a pediatric gastroenterologist, but he continued to have trouble swallowing. His specialist did an upper endoscopy while on the acid blocker medicine, which showed that he still had EoE. He then went on a strict diet but he was very picky, and refused to eat foods different from what he was used to. We had to stop the diet after 5 weeks. He still has not gained back all the weight he lost. At his last visit with the specialist 3 months ago, he was prescribed a liquid steroid to swallow, but I still don’t see much difference. I would like to discuss what other options there are for Daniel. Follow the prompts on your tablet to join me for a part of the discussion.
