Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 On the bed wetting thread, whenever we address even mild forms of chelation, we get increases in bed wetting. Our doctor felt that we were seeing increasing ictal activity during sleep. Has anyone been given the same feedback? It is the one reason we have thus far stayed away from the DMSA.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 My son is LKS variant, which our neuro feels most regressive autistic cases will be eventual labeled for better insurance coverage. No seizures, just diffusely abnormal EEG with no epileptic activity...hence not LKS, just a variant. No antimony problems...hair, urine, etc. We're a no milk family...hormones, etc. No apnea, no subclinical seizures, just the ictal mess after probably toxin related Thyroid ruled out all over the board...allopathic, alternative...always goes back to the liver If PST, does not respond to epsom salts baths..blows him out..but I'd love to hear more on the bed gasses. That's a first for us. And thank you for the two cents...we value it!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 Hi - After 3 days of DMSA, my daughter (who has uses a pull up at night) decreased her nightly urine output (while we increased the amount of liquids to her). What is ictal activity? We had incredible results this weekend and this was our first time with DMSA. I'm between " teary-eyed " , because she has been a normal 6 year old all weekend, and " so angry I could spit " , because I trusted the doctors with the HepB at birth. I'll post our results later tonite if anyone is interested. Thanks - > On the bed wetting thread, whenever we address even mild forms of chelation, > we get increases in bed wetting.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 Ictal activity is subclinical seizures or the aftermath of a seizure. Have you looked in LKS (lanedau kleffner syndrome) as possibly a cause? In my experience on this, bedwetting means to me 1. The child has problems with smooth muscles, SAMe helps (does she have antimony poisining?) 2. The child should be off milk 3. The child has subclinical to clinical seizures activity at night or even apnea 4. Thyroid aspects (hypothyroidism) 5. Sometimes the bed outgasses hefty mixes of fumes she is allergic to, or she is PST Just my two cents Kathy [ ] Re: bed-wetting / increased ictal activity >Hi - > >After 3 days of DMSA, my daughter (who has uses a pull up at night) >decreased her nightly urine output (while we increased the amount of >liquids to her).

What did you do prior to the dmsa? Thanks. nne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 HAve you don the iodine test to your child for thyroid? (wiliss's paper) This will give you a better indication of thyroid problems, probably wasn't done yet? Someone on the list awhile back spoke of beds outgassing lots of things like benzene and other lovelies, I will try to get that out to you? PST if more than an epsom salt bath protocol, it also involves taking the child off things that are poisining them, ie colored vegees, sulphar bearing foods, salyciatates, tartrazine, etc etc etc. (see www.feingold.org ) for further details- Re: [ ] Re: bed-wetting / increased ictal activity >My son is LKS variant, which our neuro feels most regressive autistic cases >will be eventual labeled for better insurance coverage.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2000 Report Share Posted October 3, 2000 What's tartrazine? My daughter's off all the other food items you mentioned, but I haven't run across that one, yet.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2000 Report Share Posted October 3, 2000 I THINK tartrazine is a common yellow food coloring, FDC yellow#5.
