Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 LDA stands for Low Dose Antigen. These are shots intended to help allergies by retraining the immune system to NOT react to very low doses of various antigens in your region, pet dander, etc. You are supposed to get at least 12 shots over a 3 year period. We would have done ANYTHING to get rid of our son's incapacitating seasonal allergies. We tried a few of these shots, and the whole thing was quite an ordeal and extremely expensive for something that Dr. N. himself contends is not GUARANTEED to work, anyway. The main thing that isurbed us about the shots is that they are generic and we were having things injected into him that he did NOT test allergic to such as animal dander and dust mites. (If it ain't broke, don't fix it!) Interestingly, we put our son on SCD in August, and he did not present with ONE seasonal allergy symptom this fall. If you read Ken Bock's book, he claims that by eliminating foods that are putting stress on the immune system, the immune system may not be in a big of a tizzy and might calm down enough to NOT react to inhalants. Springtime has always been much worse for my son. I will keep you posted as to whether this miraculous lack of allergic reaction to inhalants continues. That would be so great, but I am not counting on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Hi, I gave LDA to my neuro-typical son. He had horrible itchy, bleeding exzema and this improved this by 90%. I was so impressed I gave it to my autistic son. He has just gotten 1 dose so far, no changes to date. The Journal of Pediatrics has recognized it as promising therapy. It has not had the funding, from what I understand, to get to the " large double blind controlled " study that the fda requires. But the shot my sons have gotten is simply 30 allergens and an enzyme. -- In mb12 valtrex , Marcelle andre wrote: > > Hi, I am new to the group.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Dr. N CURED my son's asthma with the LDA shots. Bobby was so allergic to mold when we started that when we visited the grandparents who live in a 40 year old house near an ocean, he couldn't function and would appear to be very ill for days. Bobby does not appear to have any seasonal allergies now. Bobby went off the LDA shots in the third year because Singulair interferes and he has some brain inflammation. (We mad the grandparents get new mattresses). I had the LDA shots too. . . I can say that they made the night time " I can breathe feeling " go away. But, that when we entered the beginning of year 3, I had to go back on every other month or every third month shots (instead of every six months) because I had a major exposure to mold and the mold induced asthma returned. The shots keep it under control. Overall, the LDA shots are awesome! It was a life changing intervention and got Bobby off of nebulizers (what fun!). All the best, H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
