Guest guest Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Hello everyone, My daughter has developed these following symptoms and I was wondering if she got parasites.. - aggresive behavior (scratching, pinching) out of the blue - throwing stuff (including her ipad..) - ocd : turning on bathroom blower and flushing toilet - mouthing inedible items - night awakening and stay awake for 1 to 3 hrs - difficult to fall assleep - verbal stimming We have never encountered parasite in the past, i mean from CDSA result that we did in the past were always negative for parasites. she was treated with metronidazole and bactrim when she was 3 but at that time test showed bad bacteria. I haven't done CDSA recently but did stool culture (genova) and it showed plenty good bacteria, no yeast and no bad bacteria. Do you think it is better for me to do test first before treatment or i can just go ahead treating them? I would like to try natural product first before going into antibiotic, can you please advise me a good product? A quick update from our valtrex experience..After I stopped hbot, i saw that her aggression decreased a bit. when i increased the dose to 500 mg/day, i saw her behavior went crazy after 1 hr of taking the third dose. She moved constantly and started attacking me. she also had dark circle under her eyes while on valtrex. Dr Bock thought that the aggressive behavior was due to valtrex and he suggested to stop. So she is now not taking valtrex. she is still on ketoconazole 75 mg/day and enhansa 150 mg/ day. Her weight is 55 lbs. I appreciate if you can help me with the question re. Parasites. Many thanks in advance. Tetty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 It could be Parasites but sounds a lot like PANDAS. Www.pandasnetwork.org.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Hi Tetty, Aggression is more of a symptom of bacteria especially clostridia. We are dealing with somewhat similar symptoms although the most recent CDSA did not show bacterial overgrowth and OAT suggested yeast. When we treat yeast, clostridia can go crazy as their competitors are dying. Which probiotic are you using? In our case,my son's aggresion decreased after I increased the culturelle to three caps a day. Depending on the probiotic you are using, you can try increasing the dose. We are also using enhansa and 150 mg/day was definitely not enough. The pharmacist at Lee Silsby suggested 300 mg twice a day but that was not enough for my son and he is 67 pounds. I increased the dose to 300 mg three times a day and his symptoms showed significant improvement. Curcumin dose should atleast be around 1000 mg/day to get benefits. Although the aggression is better now, we are dealing with resistance to change, ocd in bath where he is always trying to put shampoo in a certain way. He cannot wait for anything and gets extremely anxious when his school bus stops for other kids or if we stop at lights. I have increased magnesium glycinate to 100 mg three times a day with some reduction in hyperactivity and it helps calm him overall. Epsom salt bath will also help. I am thinking of repeating OAT test also to see what markers come positive. Good luck. is > > Hello everyone, > > My daughter has developed these following symptoms and I was wondering if she got parasites.. > > - aggresive behavior (scratching, pinching) out of the blue > - throwing stuff (including her ipad..) > - ocd : turning on bathroom blower and flushing toilet > - mouthing inedible items > - night awakening and stay awake for 1 to 3 hrs > - difficult to fall assleep > - verbal stimming > > We have never encountered parasite in the past, i mean from CDSA result that we did in the past were always negative for parasites. she was treated with metronidazole and bactrim when she was 3 but at that time test showed bad bacteria. > > I haven't done CDSA recently but did stool culture (genova) and it showed plenty good bacteria, no yeast and no bad bacteria. > > Do you think it is better for me to do test first before treatment or i can just go ahead treating them? > I would like to try natural product first before going into antibiotic, can you please advise me a good product? > > A quick update from our valtrex experience..After I stopped hbot, i saw that her aggression decreased a bit. when i increased the dose to 500 mg/day, i saw her behavior went crazy after 1 hr of taking the third dose.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Forgot to give you some suggestions for naturals....again, this is from Dr Amy Derken's PowerPoint when so spoke at our TACA meeting (to add to her below slides, we are also finding the surfactants are safely helping expel parasites...you can see the recent post on the LIA group for 1 such example that's been posted by na): " Parasites: Clinical signs of parasites • Rashes on the chest or neck • Discoloration around the mouth • Males often have risky behaviors • Aggravations around the full moon (bloating, irritation, etc) • Pimples on the head within the hair (newer stool test from Metametrix uses a DNA probe for better sensitivity) My favorites for treating parasites (the most difficult to lab test, but the first thing to treat) • BioPure organic freeze dried garlic • Rizol oils • Artemesia pulsed in high doses 3 days on every 2-3 weeks • Vermox/Mebendazole (100mg BID * 3days, then repeat after 3 weeks) • Biltricide (600mg TID for one day then repeat in 2-3 weeks) • Alinia (prescription dose varies) • YES Herbal liquid • It seems to be very effective to follow prescription parasite medications with homeopathic support " > > > > > > > > Hello everyone, > > > > > > > > My daughter has developed these following symptoms and I was wondering if she got parasites.. > > > > > > > > - aggresive behavior (scratching, pinching) out of the blue > > > > - throwing stuff (including her ipad..) > > > > - ocd : turning on bathroom blower and flushing toilet > > > > - mouthing inedible items > > > > - night awakening and stay awake for 1 to 3 hrs > > > > - difficult to fall assleep > > > > - verbal stimming > > > > > > > > We have never encountered parasite in the past, i mean from CDSA result that we did in the past were always negative for parasites. she was treated with metronidazole and bactrim when she was 3 but at that time test showed bad bacteria. > > > > > > > > I haven't done CDSA recently but did stool culture (genova) and it showed plenty good bacteria, no yeast and no bad bacteria. > > > > > > > > Do you think it is better for me to do test first before treatment or i can just go ahead treating them? > > > > I would like to try natural product first before going into antibiotic, can you please advise me a good product? > > > > > > > > A quick update from our valtrex experience..After I stopped hbot, i saw that her aggression decreased a bit. when i increased the dose to 500 mg/day, i saw her behavior went crazy after 1 hr of taking the third dose.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Hi all, Thanks for your input. Rita, I will investigate your Ideas. is, I forgot to mention that she gets hungry more than usual and when she woke up at night she asked for food. this is why i thought about parasite. We are using theralac, probio gold and lactate free custom probiotic which i rotate every 3 days. The doses is 2 caps a day and with custom probiotic 3 scoop. I haven't been able to dilligently give the probiotics..i guess it is not enough. Will take your suggestion to increase it. Thanks! As for enhansa, i want to increase it slowly because in the past she became irritable. when you increase the dose to twice a day, do you give one at breakfast and one at evening? My daughter is also very anxious especially being outside of home. Very sensitive to noise in particular the lawnmower. I use magnesium citrate 450 mg at bed time and Cal Mag citrate at lunch..but it did nothing to help her calm. Any thoughts anyone?

He is only on a multivitamin and melatonin, and mainly just has speech, developmental delays but his aggression and talking back is biggest issue. Although lately by the Grace of God has lessened.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 I’ve always heard zinc and gaba when chewing. Never do zinc and cal mag or calcium at same time—they affect each others’ absorption---I think—you’d have to check on that. Hope it helps. my dr. always has us just do zinc picolinate.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Hi Tetty, I started with 2 caps of 150 mg once a day, then in three days increased to 2 caps of 150 mg twice a day. I continued on this dose for some time and then increased the dose to 2 caps of 150 mg 3 times a day. It improved his eye contact and speech. Our dan was recommending even a higher dose up to 1500 mg a day but I will stay at 900 mg a day at least for some time now. You are doing the right thing by increasing the curcumin dose gradually but do go up on the dose as curcumin itself has anti inflammatory, antifungal and antibacterial properties. For magnesium, I recently started using magnesium glycinate 100 mg by klaire labs as this is the best absorbed form of magnesium. I noticed that it reduces hyperactivity but not so sure about anxiety. Increasing culturelle did help with aggressive behavior though. Maybe it is a good idea to run an OAT test to see what exactly going on with your little one. My son is extremely hungry also and craves carbs and he is on nystatin for yeast. I will be repeating his OAT soon too. Honestly speaking, whenever my son was going through behaviors, no supplements helped till I took care of the real issue. Good luck and let me know if I can be of any help. is > > > > > > Hello everyone, > > > > > > My daughter has developed these following symptoms and I was wondering if she got parasites.. > > > > > > - aggresive behavior (scratching, pinching) out of the blue > > > - throwing stuff (including her ipad..) > > > - ocd : turning on bathroom blower and flushing toilet > > > - mouthing inedible items > > > - night awakening and stay awake for 1 to 3 hrs > > > - difficult to fall assleep > > > - verbal stimming > > > > > > We have never encountered parasite in the past, i mean from CDSA result that we did in the past were always negative for parasites. she was treated with metronidazole and bactrim when she was 3 but at that time test showed bad bacteria. > > > > > > I haven't done CDSA recently but did stool culture (genova) and it showed plenty good bacteria, no yeast and no bad bacteria. > > > > > > Do you think it is better for me to do test first before treatment or i can just go ahead treating them? > > > I would like to try natural product first before going into antibiotic, can you please advise me a good product? > > > > > > A quick update from our valtrex experience..After I stopped hbot, i saw that her aggression decreased a bit. when i increased the dose to 500 mg/day, i saw her behavior went crazy after 1 hr of taking the third dose.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Regarding the shirt-collar-chewing: When we went on the GFCF diet, my daughter's mouthing, chewing, and gnawing on everything stopped. I put away the chewtubes, the chewelry, the dozen toothbrushes, ribbons, elastic bands, and all the crafty braided things I had made for her to chew on. I smiled at the photos showing her constantly gnawing on stuff, glad that those days were gone. Then, we stopped the GFCF diet when she started preschool, so that she would eat whatever everyone else was eating at snack time, and so now she eats whatever she wants as long as it's healthy, and all the mouthing, chewing, and gnawing is back with a vengeance. So, I dug out all the chewtubes, etc. and gave them back to her. Her teacher requested some of the chewtubes for her to chew on at school, too, so we gave the teacher some. She loves her cheese and yogurt, so I am thinking that's the culprit. She doesn't care for starch or any baked goods. But she loves crispy yogurt melts so much that they are now used as reinforcement both at school and by the therapists that come to our house. So, I don't think we could go back to casein-free, even though I wish we could. And on mornings when she refuses to eat anything before school, yogurt is the only thing she'll eat. And she is not fooled by soy yogurt, coconut yogurt or veggie cheese or all those non-milk imitations. The only milk substitute product I am able to trick her with is hemp milk, which she loves. Anyway, I think for my daughter the reason that she chews on everything is the milk products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hi, I would recommend reading "Healing the new childhood epidemics" by kenneth bock m.d. Many agressive kids he has checked for PANDAS. Also, find a way to convince your pediatrician to order an open parasites test. I wouldn't relate it to autistic symptoms because he might be hesitant, just find a reason that you need one.

He is only on a multivitamin and melatonin, and mainly just has speech, developmental delays but his aggression and talking back is biggest issue. Although lately by the Grace of God has lessened. He continues to be my precious mystery, lol. Any ideas on the shirt chewing so appreciated, thanks all,Alisabeth at danandalisabeth@...

Rita, I will investigate your Ideas. is, I forgot to mention that she gets hungry more than usual and when she woke up at night she asked for food. this is why i thought about parasite. We are using theralac, probio gold and lactate free custom probiotic which i rotate every 3 days. The doses is 2 caps a day and with custom probiotic 3 scoop. I haven't been able to dilligently give the probiotics..i guess it is not enough. Will take your suggestion to increase it. Thanks! As for enhansa, i want to increase it slowly because in the past she became irritable. when you increase the dose to twice a day, do you give one at breakfast and one at evening? My daughter is also very anxious especially being outside of home. Very sensitive to noise in particular the lawnmower. I use magnesium citrate 450 mg at bed time and Cal Mag citrate at lunch..but it did nothing to help her calm. Any thoughts anyone?
