Lili & & & & & & & & & & & & & The pituitary gland has a lot to do with control of urination. Mercury accumulates in the hormone glands and adversely affects their function. Maybe getting mercury level down will improve this situation. There is also a nasal spray that has pituitary hormone, (oxitocin is the hormone I think). Info on this in Huggings book.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 Frequent urination and bed wetting is usually related to hormonal problems; usually pituitary in kids and prostrate in aging. There are home tests for pituitary, and nasal spray for treatment. Dealing with the causes of the hormonal imbalances improves it in the long run. My paper on autism/mercury discusses the problem in kids. Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal worst was probably about what you describe, went maybe every hour to half hour. However many times it was fairly low volume. Sometime very low volume. I had no infection and that symptom resolved after amalgam removal so I'm sure it was caused somehow by endocring/nervous system regulation. It's like Hg can affect the cycling or water flow between the kidneys and bladder as well as sense of urgency/volume. Hg also affects everyone a little differently probably.

This is a symptom of diabetes, so I would disagree with you that " he does not have any symptoms of diabetes " . It can also be a bladder infection, because when I have a bladder infection, this description would apply to me. I use cranberry juice, works in about an hour. For my son, this would be a sign of yeast. Good luck. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Have you considered oxalate issues? Frequent urination and pain while urinating are associated with oxalates. Just a thought... Trying_Low_Oxalates/ frequent urination My NT son has been having episodes of frequent urination on and off for at least one and a half years. I thought for a long time that it was related to his extreme sensitivity to phenols, but now I think it is histamine that he is sensitive to instead. Anyway, it's been going on for so long and causes so many issues (hard to go anywhere, car trips are awful, etc). He also says that he has to push hard for the urine to come out, and often (especially when he's going a lot, and by a lot I mean every few minutes) there is only a drip or two of urine. Can anyone help? This is driving our family nuts, and his doctor isn't much help.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hi, I'm new to this message board and just learning about everything here, BUT, my son's also have issues with frequent urination and it has nothing to do with food, etc. and everything to do with stress and anxiety. When my PDD son was stressed out at school when he was 3+, 4 and 5 years old, he would constantly go to the bathroom with little drops here and there like you said. It was almost like he was escaping the classroom noise, etc. He was potty trained by 3.5 yrs, but then would lose it. I ended up taking him out of school for the extended year summer program because it was just too stressful for him (too much change maybe?). My older son has lots of anxiety issues and ADHD. He is CONSTANTLY going to the bathroom. It's a real problem on school days and we are doing various things to help him, but it is definitely an anxiety issue. Hope that helps, > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Can oxalates be an issue if my son tested low in oxalic acid? I guess I was assuming that it wouldn't be. One food that I know for sure that causes it is pineapple, but that's not the whole story at all. That's interesting that you mentioned anxiety, . My ds does have anxiety and it does seem to make it worse. I'm the same way- I ALWAYS have to pee at important things, like my graduation and wedding (and anything where it would be hard to do, like standing in line). I've just discovered that I have problems with histamines, and eating food high in histamine makes it worse. One of my primary symptoms of the histamine problem is anxiety and poor tolerance of stress, which I think means that I get symptoms right away when stressed. Histamine issues also cause sensitivity to noise and to an overstimulating environment (which happens to me). I do think that my son also has issues with histamine, and the pineapple connection is interesting because pineapple is one food that causes histamine to be released directly from mast cells. So I feel that that's part of the puzzle, but I wonder if there's more? I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to treat it? -Sierra > > Hi, > I'm new to this message board and just learning about everything here, > BUT, my son's also have issues with frequent urination and it has > nothing to do with food, etc. and everything to do with stress and > anxiety. > > When my PDD son was stressed out at school when he was 3+, 4 and 5 > years old, he would constantly go to the bathroom with little drops > here and there like you said.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 If your child has low Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH - produced by the hypothalamus), then the downstream effect can be the pituitary producing lower levels of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) which causes you to feel the need to pee all the time and can also produce excess static electricity in the body - observed as shocks when touching things...

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 You can have oxalate issues without it showing up in the urine, but you'd likely see other signs like pain in the eyes, sandy stools, and burning feet. Also oxalate dumps come in cycles and levels in the urine can decrease and build back up. My sons last three OATs have comep clean for oxalates, but he experiences dumps every 3-4 months.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 , Poppy seeds are very high in oxalate, 30 mgs per teaspoon. Urinary urgency and frequency is often a 'dumping " symptom as the body tries to get rid of this toxic substance. Oxalate can cause strange feelings or pain in the hands that do lead to kids wanting to bite them when the oxalate is getting in the skin and it may be bothering the rest of his skin too. It causes peripheral neuropathies of various sorts....strange feelings and even terrible itching in the skin. The oxalate transporters in the body are now being actively characterized by the scientists and the last NIH meeting on oxalate which I attended was all about the transporter SLC26A6 which is being found to be involved all over the body with governing secretory issues and the pH, because it is a major part of the governance of the movement of bicarbonate across the cell membranes of secretory organs like the gut and the kidney and the pancreas and the lungs. It makes sense that when its substrate is suddenly increased to way beyond physiological levels, that this would put the transporter that governs this substance (oxalate) into overdrive. There are more oxalate transporters that have been identified but whose functions are not yet understood, but so far, what the scientists have figured out is making a lot of sense of why children with autism (and almost all have high oxalate in testing), have these cycles of constipation and diarrhea. It may have a lot less to do with changes in microbial populations than we thought. The cycles of yeast may very well be caused by the way oxalate impairs carboxylase enzyme functions which are critical to the immune defense against yeast. People with genetic problems with these carboxylases always have yeast issues. But the cycles of yeast may come from having cycles of oxalate dumping....when these enzymes would be inhibited. One thing that supports the use of enzymes that are advocated here is that oxalate also is involved with the secretion of fluids from the pancreas, so that would include the pancreatic enzymes which you CAN supplement. This likely explains why these enzymes are also so critical for people with cystic fibrosis, because the new research finds that the oxalate transporter and the cystic fibrosis transporter (that is broken in cystic fibrosis) are partners and regulate each other. The science of why oxalate being absorbed from a leaky gut leads to disruptions all over the body is getting clearer and clearer. Anyway, you might check out what the other ingredients are in this product, but the reaction you describe is a TYPICAL reaction to getting too much oxalate in your system at once. Drinking water and taking biotin and arginine may help reduce the symptoms. Come to Trying_Low_Oxalates if you want more details. Also, find out if your doctor is keeping up with the research on oxalate coming from our project at ARI. I'd be glad to bring them up to date since so many discoveries have been made in the last two or three years that pretty much totally changed the landscape. this research is explaining why reducing oxalate was so healing to the children who were fortunate enough to have parents who wanted to try it! Our listserve keeps growing with more than 3000 people on it. I put some relevant articles below on these transporters and pancreatic insufficiency. J Cyst Fibros. 2009 Dec;8(6):370-7.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy is critical for adequate nutrition in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). METHODS: This was a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, two-period crossover study assessing efficacy and safety of Creon 24,000-unit capsules in CF subjects > or =12 years with EPI. Patients were randomised to one of two 5-day sequences, Creon/placebo or placebo/Creon (target dose, 4000 lipase units/g fat). Primary outcome was the coefficient of fat absorption (CFA); secondary outcomes were coefficient of nitrogen absorption (CNA), symptoms, and safety. RESULTS: Thirty-two subjects were randomised. Mean CFA and CNA were significantly greater with Creon than placebo (CFA, 88.6% vs. 49.6%; CNA, 85.1% vs. 49.9%; p<0.001 for both). Symptoms were improved and fewer treatment-emergent adverse events were reported with Creon than placebo. One patient discontinued for weight loss unrelated to study drug. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated Creon was effective in treating EPI due to CF and was safe and well tolerated.

Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK. martin.steward@... Abstract PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The pancreatic duct epithelium is remarkable for its capacity to secrete HCO(3)(-) ions at concentrations as high as 140 mmol/l. The properties of the key transporters involved in this process and the central role played by cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) are the main focus of this review. RECENT FINDINGS: The Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger at the apical membrane of pancreatic duct cells is now known to be SLC26A6. The 1: 2 stoichiometry and electrogenicity of this exchanger enable it to contribute to the secretion of HCO(3)(-) at high concentrations. The apical CFTR channels also appear to have sufficient HCO(3)(-) permeability to contribute directly to HCO(3)(-) secretion. There is a strong possibility that the Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) channels at the apical membrane are members of the bestrophin family which, like CFTR, are also permeable to HCO(3)(-). More has been learned about the complex interactions between CFTR and other transporters within macromolecular complexes coordinated at the apical membrane by scaffolding proteins. Further details are also emerging of the protective paracrine roles of nucleotides, nucleosides, bile acids and trypsin in the regulation of ductal secretion. SUMMARY: Most of the key transporters involved in Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) secretion have now been identified and characterized. Current research focuses on the molecular interactions between these transporters and the ways in which they are regulated by extracellular signals. PMID: 19571747 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] J Med Invest. 2009;56 Suppl:332-5. Effects of Slc26a6 deletion and CFTR inhibition on HCO3- secretion by mouse pancreatic duct. Song Y, Ishiguro H, Yamamoto A, Jin CX, Kondo T. Second Clinical College of Norman Bethune Medical Division, Jilin University, Changchun, China. Abstract Pancreatic duct epithelium secretes HCO(3)(-)-rich fluid, which is dependent on cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). HCO(3)(-) transport across the apical membrane is thought to be mediated by both SLC26A6 Cl(-)-HCO(3)(-) exchange and CFTR HCO(3)(-) conductance. In this study we examined the relative contribution and interaction of SLC26A6 and CFTR in apical HCO(3)(-) transport. Interlobular pancreatic ducts were isolated from slc26a6 null mice. Intracellular pH (pH(i)) was measured by BCECF microfluorometry. Duct cells were stimulated with forskolin and alkalinized by acetate pre-pulse in the presence of HCO(3)(-)-CO(2). Apical HCO(3)(-) secretion was estimated from the recovery rate of pH(i) from alkaline load. When the lumen was perfused with high-Cl(-) solution, the rate of apical HCO(3)(-) secretion was increased by luminal application of CFTRinh-172 in ducts from wild-type mice but it was decreased in ducts from slc26a6 -/- mice. This suggests that slc26a6 and CFTR compensate/compete with each other for apical HCO(3)(-) secretion with high Cl(-) in the lumen. With high HCO(3)(-) in the lumen, luminal CFTRinh-172 reduced the rate of apical HCO(3)(-) secretion in both wild-type and slc26a6 -/- ducts. This suggests that HCO(3)(-) conductance of CFTR mediates a significant portion of apical HCO(3)(-) secretion with high HCO(3)(-) in the lumen.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 , you gave a lot of interesting information about oxalates. This is something I have not considered, but you caught my interest when you talked about dumping. I searched online and found that every list of oxalate foods was different, but on average I'd say my son is on a medium oxalate diet. He is also GFCF and can't tolerate apples. He takes tons of enzymes already, but the biggest mystery is why he does better/worse with no pattern at all. We treat yeast, though not very aggressively. He has never been tested for oxalates. I don't really understand oxalates or the systems you mentioned, but I am considering a trial of a low oxalate diet. It certainly can't hurt him. How long would it take to see an obvious difference? And what is the most reliable list of oxalate foods? > > > Argh. I swear, it's not one thing, it's 10 others. Now he has started peeing a LOT.
