3 month old already been treated for reflux and been on soy;still not working?!?!HELP!!

My 3 month old boy has been through EVERY formula all the way down to soy.He also has zantac medicine,he also sits up for 20 minutes after he eats. He eats 4oz every 2 hours except in the night and he waits till about 3 hrs inbetween before he wakes up.He seriously pukes allllllll day long no matter what we do and everyone seems to say "switch his formula" well that's not working either!He cannot be the only child in the world that has this problem and my husband and I and tristin(the baby) have to constantly change clothes allll day long and wash sheet every day!Their has to be something out there to fix this.It's not normal "spitting up".He's puking it up.However his weight gain is perfect for his height but something is wrong n no one not even drs can tell me how to fix it!He's been like this since he was born!Help me PLEASE!!

First of all, is he uncomfortable with all this?  Does he sleep well at naps/nights?  In my experience (and believe me, I went through hell and back with DD's reflux), Zantac doesn't work on a lot of babies.  A lot of people go with Prevacid solutabs (they worked for us and like i mentioned before, Zantac didn't).  Also, soy formula helped us a little but not a whole lot.  Did you see a pediatric GI?  Feel free to PM me if you want to talk about it.  I researched a lot of pediatric GERG and will be happy to share the info with you.

One of the girls at work was having this same problem with her baby... they put him on a lactose free formula and it stopped.  I wish I knew what the name of the formula was, hopefully you can do a search for it and try that.
