Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Thanks for the info. We do not see the gastro until April 20th. At that time he will do a biopsy. If there is yeast still in the esophogus they will send us to an immunologist. However after reading your post I think I will call our ped and ask him to do some of the initial blood work tests. I am the type of person who hates to wait- if he has a weak immune system lets just find out and deal with it, if not then move on. The part about son's cells not having memory of his immuzations is interesting. Wyatt ended up with the measles from the immuzation. We have never done the P in the DTP knowing that it will cause problems with his seizures. I have always been skeptical about his immuzations. We use to go to a natural healer and one of the first things she said to me was that Wyatt was having adverse reactins to his immuzations. She never even asked for a medical history she could tell by looking at him. It is interesting how different things that you think are seperate or unique really aren't. They all fit together some how. Thanks for all of your help. You have given me enough knowledge to do some research on my own and to know what questions to ask.
