Guest guest Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 The light at the end of the tunnel is that the reaction to food allergies seems to be less and less dramatic as the child heals. We still react severly to red dye of certain types but to most of the diet restrictions the behavior and particularly the agression is way reduced. The other advantage is Connor now relates the episodes to the foods he ate and when he does melt down I ask him what foods caused it ahnd he admits he had a gumball or other food item that is on the no no list. I am not trying to say we are or will be off the diet but Connor is closer ansd closer to managimng his foods himself. This gives him tons of new freedom, freinds and choices. ________________________________ From: Sheri <eszbi5@...> Sent: Tuesday, April 7, 2009 9:38:01 PM Subject: Re: Re: extreme food allergies...anyone else have this issue?

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 My son has been casein and soy free for 4 years and Dr. G's patient for 3.5. He has had two minor dairy infractions in the last two months, both times while we were travelling and both times the dairy was in a baked good (not even one of the first ingredients). Horrible eczema around his mouth. I would think he should be less sensitive after all this time and not more?

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 my son's food allergies were very bad (rashes were all over his body and very itchy too), mostly 3's and 2's on the IGG test. I tried a lot of treaments and they didn't help for the 1st 4 years. what really helped him is homeopathy after 4 monthes into the treatment he was 85% better, within 9 months (his skins were all clear, thank God), it was a mircale to us.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Carole, When my son is yeasty, all he wants to do is eat carbs, which perpetuates that cycle. I have a hard time w/diet variety too, and if all you can find is one kind of meat that he'll eat well, sometimes that's the best you can do. My son loves salami (wierd since he won't touch many things w/a lot of flavor), and recently became interested in seafood. He will eat shrimp now too. But mostly, he eats cold hamburger patties. I couldn't get a wide variety in him early on, but I steadily decreased the carbs, and it has definitely made a huge difference. Now he can tell when he gets too carbed out that it makes him queasy later, as well is irritable.

Posted a question but it doesn`t get posted. Hopefully someone will help us. My grandson age 10 non verbal has been on Milk free 7 yrs. gluten free until the protocol. Dr. G. wants him on a low carb diet with everything else he is a very picky eater will not eat gags on fool sometimes.Not sleeping behavior issues. Doctor G`s thinking this could be diet. Does anyone know how to start this diet he loves potatoes, rice & pasta will not eat veg. except green beans or fruit. Would love a respond we are in need of guidance.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I have been looking at this as well. Very high IGe and regardless of what we do with the diet they will not go down. After several discussions, an interesting aspect came to light. A high IGe is a combination of both environmental allergies and food allergies. Very sensitive immune system - hot so to speak. If you block the reaction of the environmental allergies (Claritin, Flonases) you stop the symptoms but you do not effect the high IGe numbers nor cool off the reaction. . They still flair the immune system. The environmental stuff can be desensitized and if that is successful the IGe numbers will no longer reflect environmental allergies only food allergies. In theory anyway. There was the first report of a young boy being desensitized to a food allergy (sever Peanut allergy) reported last year but most will tell you that you can not desensitize against food allergies at this item but if we can separate the food from the environmental allergies it would be a good starting point. ________________________________ From: <jlhank80@...> Sent: Monday, May 11, 2009 9:01:26 PM Subject: Re: extreme food allergies...anyone else have this issue?

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Snady, Welcome to the list. It¹s always great to have someone new join the group! I have a thought to add and that is that yeast overgrowth can cause with constipation. An antifungal might help if that were the case. Could the allergies be flaring when he is constipated because he¹s reacting to yeast? Just a thought. By the way, I LOVED Dr. Sicherer¹s book ³Understanding and Managing Your Child's Food Allergies². It¹s a s Hopkins Press book. You can get it on Amazon (get the paperback.. it¹s much cheaper than the hardcover). I thought it was fascinating. I recommended it to a friend who is a dietician and she said she couldn¹t put it down. Best of luck. One more comment... some people who are anaphylactic to chicken eggs do fine on duck eggs. We used to buy them from a local farm. Evidently ducks and chicken are classified in different food families... duck is from the ³Duck Family² (no surprise there!) and chicken is from the ³Pheasant Family².

Hi everyone, We've not posted here before. Our boy, Eddie, has profound allergies. He has had early onset autism and has lost his diagnosis. However, he still has profound allergies and no bowel sIgA. I am in remission from auto-immune disease... as a family we have hugely improved health with 3.5 yrs biomed (including herbs for Lyme + Yasko). But need to go further with improving our immune systems and dealing with allergies. Eddie is anaphylactic to wheat and egg and reacts on contact - he has very low tolerance to luteins (the yellow in many yellow and green veg and foods) and reacts to about 50% of all foods. We have learnt his allergies flare when he is constipated AND when clostridia has taken a hold. We are looking to desensitise in the future.
