Miserable baby, miserable mummy :-( the story so far

Hi all, I am getting so down, can't stop crying today. Jasmine was diagnosed with reflux at around 7 weeks and prescribed gaviscon. This stopped the vomiting but caused constipation and did nothing to alleviate symptoms - back arching, screaming for hours and hours (and hours), hiccups, wet burps, gas, irritabilty etc etc. Was then px domperidone which caused neurological problems and that was stopped. She was then px ranitidine which did nothing and finally omeprazole which improved the screaming. About 3 days after starting omeprazole she passed bloody mucous stools which paed thinks related to a tear in anus. The tear has now healed and yet Jasmine has passed another motion of mucous with suspect blood in it (awaiting results). Last few days the screaming has returned. I went to GP today and asked about increasing omeprazole dose (on 5mg) but he said no. I rang childrens hospital to as them, nurse said doc would ring me - 5 hours later no one has rang :-(. No one cares about my baby being in so much pain and I am feeling so down and alone now. Just when I thought things were improving - life is rubbish ......................................
