Default Not sure what's wrong...

My son Jack has always had issues with vommiting and we can't seem to figure out why. As a baby he threw up breastmilk, milk formula and soy formula. We ended up using Nutramigen and things were good. At a year old we started him on milk and he seemed ok with it. He wasn't throwing it up within minutes like he did the formula. Then came the seasonal allergies so we started Singulair. He started throwing up again right around March last year and we thought it was from all his drainage issues. He continued through the summer but he would go 3-4 weeks and be fine, get an ear infection and the throwing up would begin again. About a month ago it got way worse. He started throwing up daily. First we thought it was the flu, then he was better for about a week, then again, and now it seems that everything he eats comes back up!! He's taking Prevacid and Singulair but neither seem to be helping. We've tried taking him off milk, soy, wheat and nothing has helped. He's eating mostly fresh fruits, veggies, meats and Simply Apple juice once a day. I'm worried that he's not getting enough fat because of this but he's also not getting it if he throws up. He has an appointment with an allergist but they couldn't get him in until April!! I'm at my wits end here. He went from 34 lbs in December to 29.5 (fully dressed) last week. He also has a rash on his right cheek that's always been there. It's not there in the morning but by evening it's pretty noticeable. We've seen his ped numerous times and she's just out of ideas. We tried doing the allergy testing a while back but he was crying so hard that we couldn't get enough blood out of him. They managed to get enough to test for peanuts (his sister is allergic) but nothing else. Any suggestions????

Have you looked into Celiac Disease or GERD?

How did the allergist appointment go?
