Guest guest Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 , Hope you find the help you need. Try to help with the info I know as a mom, not a doctor. Oxygen helps with the body's energy. When you get your confirmed diagnosis, if you can get your child to a mito dr that would be great. Our insurance covered at high option to take out of network. Dr. Whiteman at the mayo clinic in minn strongly encourages drs to give a child a mito cocktail exclusively tailored for that person. Also, my son drinks propel, gatorade if you child needs the calories to help keep with his electrolytes. This has helped with his dehydration and helped raise his blood pressure - it was running 80/40 but lately has been around 100/50. Good Luck.
