Toxic Levels of Amino Acids

[Guest guest]

had some bloodwork done Feb 22nd for metabolic screening. While

they found no " inborn errors of metabolism " the amino acid report came

back with about half the amino acids really high, some 4-5 times the

high end of the range. I can't find much on the Internet re toxic levels

of amino acids, just deficiencies. I did find one item that said lack of

B12 inhibits the metabolism of certain amino acids causing a buildup and

blocks metabolism of protein, and am wondering, with 's

malabsorption issues whether this is likely what is happening (or was

since he is now gaining weight on the SC Diet).

In any case, I am in " the little red hen " position with his doctors

right now.

Who will help me with my son said the mother?

Not I, said the metabolic dr., it's not an in-born error ...

Not I, said the neurologist, I do seizures and EEGs ...

Not I, said the paediatrician, I am too busy.

So, I turn to the experts - I cant imagine high levels of anything in

the brain is a good thing. Can anyone help?

Thanks
