Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As you are done with all the test and suggestions from your pediatrician and still there is no improvement.
In this case, I would suggest to keep your daughter under a routine balanced diet like cereal without milk/fruit juice with bread toast and boiled egg.
The problem could be she might have allergy with the current foods she is having. Please change the foods you are currently providing and see if there is any improvement.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Kabita Chowdhury
