Infant Spams or sandifer syndrome

April 28, 2013- Begins around 0:26. GI doc thinks this IS sandifer's, though he is not 100% (mostly because my son doesn't appear uncomfortable in the clip). Currently on 10mg of Prilosec once a day and may need to add Zantac at night. • February 18, 2014- at 18 months we are still struggling to figure this out. Eating is a chore everyday. He still arches and hates being on his back. Fights me at every meal. He doesn't even care for cookies. Who doesn't like cookies?! He remains in the 3rd percentile for weight. An upper GI in November revealed an H Pylori infection and showed evidence of mild reflux and esophagitis (throat irritation). But what doesn't make sense is that he had been on Prilosec for the previous 6 months so why would it still be irritated if the Prilosec was working?!!! I had hoped H pylori was the culprit but of course it wasn't. He received antibiotics for two weeks and a recent stool sample confirmed it's gone, but his discomfort continued. For awhile I was giving him Zantac twice daily but after complaining to the GI doc once again we are trying Nexium. He's been on it 4 days now and no noticeable improvement. Will give it two weeks before stopping.
