Guest guest Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Georgiasand32 - Just curious - What in the probiotics does the doctor think he is allergic too? The actual bacteria itself? The toxins in the die off reaction? I believe Kirkman makes gfcf probiotics. Is it something else in the pills/wafers that they believe he is allergic too? My son had a rash break out when we tried Three Lac - I had to stop that. (Plus one bacteria in that has been questioned about safety.) From: georgiasand32 <georgiasand32@...> Subject: Re: Question- probiotics Date: Saturday, March 27, 2010, 3:38 PM  I have been hounding Dr.G at every consult about probiotics but he specifically wants my son to hold off on starting them again. Since my son is allergic to almost everything he wants him to take time off from it as he suspects he was allergic to these as well.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 It may be that because probiotics have a direct impact on certain parts of the immune system - certain bacteria trigger the TH1 arm of the immune system and many other things, he may simply be concerned about them making the immune system too 'hot' in a specific area. He usually encourages them, so he has a very specific reason. I can't take them at all - it sets off stomach problems, and triggers anxiety and ocd. I have to manage yeast issues w/diflucan.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 > Has everyones kids shown improvement? I don't know that all kids will improve on the protocol, but our son has. In his early years, he was sick all the time, but he's been much healthier since starting antivirals and antifungals. He started school in a special education pre-K classroom, was added to a regular Kindergarten classroom the next year with an aide, and now (fourth grade), he's in the talented and gifted program. Last year, he got a perfect score on his standardized tests (TAKS test in Texas). That didn't surprise us on the math, but it did on the verbal. We've always been able to tell he was smart, even before starting the protocol, but lots of things are just harder for him. He learned the complete alphbet (very early) before he would say " mom " and " dad " . He still doesn't pick up social rules easily, he gets in trouble at school for behavioral issues, and he has trouble forming his sentences and writing. So we're certainly not done. But we have made so much progress from when all he could do was use words to label things, not to communicate what he wanted.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 My son gained language when we started the diet at age 3. He's been on protocol a year. After a few months his HHV6 was normal. His NK% is up from 3 to 7. All of the blood work that was out of range a year ago is now normal. He's starting to read now. -- Sent from my Palm Pre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Meera, My son is close to 4 and we did not do any HBOT but did lot of supplementation last 1 1/2 year. We saw nothing from supplementation. This is how we ended-up seeing Dr. G in the first week of March. My son is still non-verbal. He had one word before he regressed around 14 months of age. Dr. G said no for SPECT scan at this time as we did not do HBOT. Did you see any benefit from HBOT?. Is your son verbal?
