Synthetic DHA/RHA Can Cause Symptoms That Mimic Colic or Reflux!!

I want to get the word out because I think this could help so many Moms struggling to figure out "colic" or reflux!! I just sent this to my daughter's GI doc. Even though it has been almost 2 years since he treated her, we JUST NOW figured out what caused her problems! Dear Dr. XXXXXXXX,
I wanted to share something with you we recently discovered about our daughter, Charlotte (now 2.5 yrs), who you treated a couple of years ago (very briefly when she was about 2-3months old). Charlotte was suffering from severe GI episodes after almost every feeding. We treated for reflux without much improvement. Around 6-8months or so, things got better, but were still not great. By the time she was a year or so, all seemed just fine. We wrote it off as "colic" as everyone did. However, we recently made a discovery that I want to share because I think it could help other children. Charlotte has a severe GI reaction to synthetic DHA/RHA!! We only discovered it because we have her on organic milk and my husband purchased a different brand once that had "added DHA/RHA." After about 1.5 days, it was as if we went back in time! She was gassy, in pain, screaming her tummy hurt (since at least she can talk now!) and crying through the night. It never occurred to us it was the milk - we chalked it up to a bug. It persisted, but never worsened (no fever, diarrhea or vomitting) so I wondered if there was something in the milk causing her problem (the only thing different). We stopped the milk as a precaution and within 24 hours, she was fine. About a week later, my husband, who was convinced this was coincidence, brought home the same DHA fortified milk. Within 24 hours, Charlotte was a mess again! Same exact symptoms!! I did some internet research (I know, but stay with me!) and found several articles that suggest synthetic DHA/RHA can cause GI problems. We stopped the milk immediately and she immediately returned to normal. Unscientific, I know, but as a mom, I am 100% convinced that Charlotte could not tolerate all of synthetic DHA that was added to her formula and food. It explains why as she transitioned to table food and milk, her symptoms improved and ultimately resolved completely once she was off DHA altogether. I am no doctor, but I watched my baby suffer for a year and it broke my heart, so I thought I should share this with you (and with Charlotte's peds, and anyone else who will listen) if it could help another child not go through this. I now believe my other two children who were treated for reflux with no great improvements (not by you, but by their ped) also suffered the same issue. Just some food for thought! I hope this finds you well.
