Hello, and i very ,much respect the amount of work and love that goes into caring for your child, as for some ideas here goes: do try switching off the lactaid, but instead of soymilk try rice milk or almond milk, i think they both taste better than soy anyway. secondly, i was at 3 tbsp a day of acacia before the C went away completely, so don't be afriad to up it to the mAx if you have to. Also, it will be hard but you need to try to wean her off of the enemas, it is a dependence risk for sure, you could give Natural Calm a try, it is a magnesium supplement that helps your body naturally relax and go, it is not a laxative. You can also try triphala which is an ayurvedic blend of three fruits which helps to tone the muscles of the digestive tract and also helps with C, if you can afford it, i would suggest seeing a naturopath, which you may have already done, since you mentioned the allergy testing. Just some starter thoughts. Good luck.
