Re: Day 19 Valtrex - soon to start SCD

[Guest guest]

Hi Deanna,

We did SCD cold turkey. We aren't on Valtrex yet but my son was

having horrible BM and he had a very inflammed gut, one of the worst

our DAN doctor had seen. I will tell you it wasn't easy but within

two weeks are son was having normal bowel movements - without any

supplements except for Kirkman DPP-IV, fish oils, calcium and Super

Nu Thera. I know that Super-Nu Thera powder isn't SCD safe but I

didn't get that serious about it. After a month on of regular bowel

movements we introduced 1 piece of rice bread a day. Other then that

he eats meat and vegatables and for fruit he only gets banana's and

pears. If he test results come back as his belly still being

inflammed I will have to get more serious about SCD. I don't think

being on Valtrex should have any negative effects while starting SCD

but I am still new at this so I could be wrong. I would just

continue on your course of Valtrex.

Good luck!

Ann

Hi,

I just want to tell everyone we have just got back from Destin, Fl at the Hyperbaric's clinic there Dr. Eddie Zant's clinic doing 42 hard chamber dive's two time's a day for three weeks....with amazing changes in our son...more vocabulary, understanding way more, pointing when asked to point to his favorite car, saying were home without any prompt's when we arrived home after three weeks of hyperbaric hard chamber dives...His stools are now fully formed for the first time in a long time. My son pointed, had words and lost all of it after his vaccinations...he is now pointing again and speaking again after hyperbaric' this is an amazingly healing therapy and this doctor is a caring man who accommadate's families on all levels, he works through the weekend's Saturday and Sunday when needed. I highly suggest goggling them and trying their clinic at a 150.00 a dive. It is one of the most beautiful beaches in Fla...

God Bless all of you,

Dana,

Hi I'm in NW FL and just found out about Dr Zant's office 3 days ago. I've never been to a DAN! (He is a DAN! isn't he?) Anyway, I have been doing all interventions for my Asperger's, ADHD, OCD, Dyslexia, food allergies, sal intolerant, etc 8 y/o son by myself with no dr at all. I was thinking about taking my son to see him, but my money is limited. So, I have to choose wisely and am not interested in seeing a Dr who pushes lots of very expensive treatments. I think maybe a little help and guidance. Do you think he would be a good one to see for that?

Deanna:

We happened to start the SCD about a month before doing Valtrex so I

don't know if I can give that good of advice other than my own

opinion, if it were me, I'd start the SCD and continue onward with

the Valtrex. I know exactly what behavior you are talking about

because my son did the exact same thing. Before starting him on SCD

he would only eat rice crackers with cashew butter, GFCF pizzas,

corn chips and potato chips so he was carb hounder as well. We've

been on SCD for approx. two months and have survived. We had to

sort of pass of the intro diet to start, but I plan on revisiting it

later one when my son is more accepting of trying new foods. I

can't say that I'm seeing dramatic results on SCD, but then again we

haven't really followed it to the tee either, but after seeing his

microbial OAT I knew it was the right thing to do. His arabinose

fungus was high. Just keep in mind that with the SCD you won't

always see dramatic results right away and at first you'll see some

heeling regressions like both of my kids the first week had a lot of

diarrhea, but then I wanted them to eat so I made them pancakes with

nut flour and that isn't how you are supposed to follow the diet,

but at least we eliminated the illegals and to me that was a step in

the right direction. After that first week, their stools for the

most part have been formed and with the addition of enzymes their

stools don't float anymore. You'll have to keep in mind that you

will also see some healing regressions at steps along the way, I've

read that you'll see die-off reactions at 2 mo., 5 mo., and 9 mo. so

stay strong.

Two things that we feel are really helping us while doing Valtrex

and SCD at the same time with my daughter is the fact that we are on

MB 12 injections every three days and we absolutely love HBOT.

Their tummies will be bloated and after HBOT their tummies are flat

again. We really think these two therapies have made the die-off

reactions much more tolerable.

Well I'll quit rambling on, best of luck.
