Enzymes

Kj started out on pancrease as a baby,
then moved on to cotazyme
and then finally moved on to creon forte 25000u

she has 3-4 with snacks and 4 -5 with meals

all depending on fat content of meals though.

She has short gut syndrome as well (due to loss of 30cms of small intestine at birth), so most of her food doesn't digest very well and she has constant runny stools. The docs have always been surprised as to how well she has done at putting on weight and growing <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

My hubby takes 10-12 Creon 20's with every meal, and about 4-5 with snacks.

I'm jealous of those of you who only take 4-5 with a meal (or less!) - we always take a small baggie of 10-12 Creon 20's with us if we are eating out and keep them in my purse... in the past we brought the whole bottle but if temp changes were extreme, we found the whole bottle would get ruined, so we started just taking the amount needed for a meal.
