This my momma is all on her own and seems like no one is really taking this little boys case seriously. I have no experience with constipation, so please if you can help with any suggestions that would be so appreciative. This is what she wrote to me, as to what is going on.

Here is a little background of what has been going on. In November/december of last year he started having horrible pain so bad to the point he would just lay on the ground and cry until he finally would poop but once he did the stools were always very soft so I didn't understand I had him in ER and urgent care and they always told me he is probably just coming down with a virus it will pass well it just kept happening. So I took him to urgent care again and finally the Dr said enough is enough lets see if we can find something so she did a stool test and found blood so they did an x-ray and said it looked as if he is completely backed up, so she referred us to get in to see GI immediately so in January we started seeing Dr xxxx and he agreed with the Dr at urgent and also diagnosed milk protein allergy because of a rash he has had for a long time. So he took him off all milk and gluten products and he changed his formula and put him on miralax daily it seemed to be doing well then he started having the pains again so he upped his dose of miralax but it just seemed to be a cycle so then a few months ago they did a blood test and said he grew out of the allergy put him back on everything we need to get his weight up and switched him from the peptimin to boost. then it just seemed to keep getting worse he started having rectal prolapse every once in a while, Well about a month ago I had enough he was in so much pain I took him back to ER and the Dr in the ER did an enema and it caused his prolapse to come all the way out but he was not passing the stools so at that point he decided to admit him and transferred us to the childrens hospital while we were there they did nothing but give him a bunch of miralax and send us home. Well on Saturday night his rectum prolapsed again and do I call 911 and they took him to the hospital by the time we got there it went in on its own so they sent us home then on Sunday it did it again 2 times but I was able to reduce it on my own so I decided not to take him in and I would call Dr xxx on Tuesday, well then Monday it started prolapsing every time he went poop and then started bleeding really bad so I took him back and at this point it was stuck out and would not go back in. They decided to have him admitted so he could see a surgeon asap well long story short they did a bunch of test and determined he was backed up again so they did a completed cleanout with a NG tube in his belly and put him back on miralax 2 times a day and basically told me he is going to have the rectum prolapse and there was not much they can do right now they refused to do surgery because they said it was not permanent and would not last more then a few weeks and he would be back in for another surgery. So that is the gist of things if you have any questions let me know..
