Toddler chronic diarrhea

by helenchesnut, Aug 29, 2009 06:44AM
My 2 year old has had chronic diarrhea for over 5 months now, we've had allergy tests, stool samples, blood work, etc etc etc and nothing is coming up except that he has low iron. Our doctor says not to worry about it (toddler's diarrhea) but I can tell it takes a toll on him. Some days he seems overly irritable, tired, with large bags on his eyes. We live in an isolated part of the country, and just getting into see a pediatrician is taking months. Any ideas?

I am wondering if it could be he is allergic to something he eats, is he drinking milk as that can cause diarrhea in some folks, can you let us see what a regular meal would be for him, ?
