Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 our boy was on diflucan and then we switched to ketaconazole, which was the worst mistake of our lives - it basically blocked the absorption of his seizure med and most his supplements - his biomedical pathways shut down for a month. he ended up on a new seizure med which can't be taken with prescription antifungals. so, basically, since he does have a bad yeast problem, we are treating it with a LOT of probiotics, biotin and grapefruit seed extract. so far, so good we seem to be getting most of our symptoms in the evening and he seems to be fluctuating up and down. last night he again got the black circles and went from increased energy to lethargy and back and forth. he also kept running a low-grade temperature off and on and the mouth " rash " came back, but not as bad. i increase the dose today to our destination of 250 mg., 3 times per day. we are cautiously optimistic. he has most of the soft markers as a viral kid, but not the hard. well, i guess one hard marker was his french porphyrin test did come back indicating a viral issue, but his titers, etc. have always tested fine. he brought his daddy his jacket last night and it was obvious he was asking to go outside. jennie > > > > > > > > well, he is running a temperature this evening and is quite > grumpy. > > > > he also has an all over dry itchy skin thing going on, similar > to an > > > > eczema outbreak. he has been fluctuating between lethargy and > high > > > > energy today. i'm assuming these are good signs (i hope). > i'm pretty > > > > paranoid right now - we are coming off of a horrible 4 weeks > where he > > > > went from having RSV to strep throat. so, if anybody has any > words of > > > > encouragement, i would love to hear them > > > > > > > > thanks again, > > > > jennie > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
