sour milk and Dr. Peng's herbs??

[Guest guest]

Sorry if this is long, but I want to be sure to include all of the

facts. I am not sure what to do, and am hoping someone can think of

something I may have missed

I started my 17-year-old on Dr. Peng's herbs around three weeks ago.

When we started them, my daughter was actually doing better than she

had been doing for years...she was happy, maturing, and her OCD was

under control. I decided to start her on the herbs b/c she has a bad

bacteria in her gut (I didn't want to put her on antibiotics) plus

she has yeast/intestinal issues. I was also hoping to get her

congestion under control with the herbs. My biggest hesitation was

similar to others on here, which is stopping her supplements. But I

decided to try them anyway, just keep a close eye on her.

We got our first shipment, and it was slow going b/c I was giving her

too much so she wasn't feeling very good. Once we got that leveled

out things were better; however, her stomache aches and congestion

were still there, but they were a little bit better. She seemed to

be doing okay w/o all of her supplements, and I dare say maybe even a

bit better in the areas of maturity and calmness, organization, etc.

When I called to order more tea, he mentioned that he was going to

change it, adding something more to try to combat her stomach aches.

When I got the new batch, it was visibly different. There were only

a few herbs that I recognized from the first batch, and it was a

completely different color and smell when cooking. According to my

daughter this batch tasted really bad compared to the first one.

Anyway, she started the new batch on Friday, and all seemed fine.

Saturday and Sunday were fine. In fact, they were great. Her

stomach seemed to be a bit better on Sunday.

The problem started Sunday evening after she ate a bowl of cereal.

We are not on any diets; we've tried several and haven't had any

noticeable improvements with them. Anyway, she ate a bowl of cereal

commenting that the milk tasted funny, but I just bought the milk, so

I told her it was fine, w/o checking to be sure. But shortly after

eating the cereal, she started to get aggitated and to make a long

story short she had a complete emotional meltdown, such that I

haven't seen in a really long time. She has a good friend she turns

to when she feels like this, and she was talking to her on the phone

when I finally quit eavesdropping and went to bed around 11:30. By

then she sounded like she had it under control. But morning she said

she was up till 3:30, she said she had some sort of anxiety/OCD

attack. She said she couldn't sleep b/c she was obsessing over

things, reliving bad memories, and using her hands to " vacuum " her

floor, until her hands were raw. This has never happened to her

before, and it completely freaked her out. It scares me when she

has " bad thoughts " b/c that usually leads her to becoming suicidal,

but I didn't hear her say anything like that to her friend last

night. It wasn't until my husband went to have a bowl of cereal this

morning that he discovered the milk was bad.

I know it sounds weird but I'm wondering if the milk somehow played a

role in triggering this attack??? It could be the new tea as well,

but it seems like if there was something in the tea that was going to

affect her this adversely that it would have happened right away, not

three days into it. Any thoughts??

Sorry it's so long
