Our GI did bloodwork on me (mostly to check my iron, but also ordered a CBC or whatever its called) and the nurse called to say everything came back "normal" whatever that means....so I guess I don't have elevated eos. So you can add me to the study 
As far as I know I don't have any allergies or intolerences though, even after the elimination diets nothing has changed for me that I was unaware of or anything like that.
We are still waiting on my DHs bloodwork (which had a stat order and is still not back, ugh!) He got a pretty full GI work up (I think they are checking for his eos level, celiacs-igg/iga, not sure what else...), I know hes not the nursing mom here but when he was 3 he had the same situation as momofmine's son, he went to the hospital with an (unrelated) fever and his WBC were through the roof with no explanation, he had tons of food intolerances as a child, was on special formula as a baby ("allergic" to breastmilk), reflux-y.....and he still has some major digestive issues, so our GI thinks his issues are going to be the key in figuring out Liberty's. I find it a little weird though, I mean I know his genetics are in her too, but I'm the one nursing her so I would think I'd be the one "causing" the problem so to speak.
I think our bottle plan is probably going to be a sippy cup too. I think I'm coming to terms that I can't do this for 2 + more years
I had my LLL leader put our a request to the professional board or whatever its called, to dig up some research on breastfeeding a baby with EGID, but I'm just not sure how long I can do this. I think I'll probably wait a month or two and try to intro elecare in a sippy and take it really slow if I can, my goal is to make it to a year of bfing as long as she keeps growing (coming from someone who is still nursing a 2.5 yo, that makes me want to cry that my GOAL is one year...). Shes started throwing up every morning now though, and I cannot figure out why! Anyways, I'm rambling on and on now like usual, but I'll join you in the CLWer having to wean early pity party, I hope she tolerates the eo28, it doesn't taste TOO bad IMO, but has a really weird fake sugar kind of aftertaste. I've only tried the orange flavor though (thank you again CS! 
), but I bet the grape is similar, I kinda gagged at the aftertaste too, so hopefully its just that and she gets into the habit of drinking it.

Ellasmama,
I keep going back and fourth. I'm sorry your DH is feeling like mine, I know where they are coming from (I'd be worried if this were my DH in this situation!), but I also know its stressful to have that pressure/stress....
: (Tasted just like orange juice to me, with a tiny chemical aftertaste.)
, she will not drink it. ive been finishing it for her. is the elecare really bitter and nasty like the neocate?
