Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Ok. What is MSM? Kali didn't do well with the singulair last night. She immediately fell asleep almost and then, woke up a half hour later and was very afraid of things. I think it might be the singulair anyway. I will look into the quercetin. How much of it do you give your little guy? Could the singulair cause an anaphlactic reaction? Should I start over with the intro. now? She still doesn't want to eat any of the foods on it, especially cooked. Kali has definitely came a long way on the SCD so, I believe she may have healed a bit already. Also, I have never seen her as aggressive as she was this morning. She was pushing and hitting kids at church. Could this also be caused from the singulair. She has only had 2 days worth of it. Please help.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Also, what's the poiunt in keeping a food log if there are only about 8 foods in your kids diet as it is. They were tried slowly one at a time after the intro. the first time around and she will not expand her diet now. We've been on SCD for 8 months but for 3-4 months straight, it was broiled chicken everyday and nothing else. God knows I cannot go back to that now.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 I am thinking about giving Dr. Buie a call but, I want to make sure it is not FOOD related first. Thanks Jody!
