Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 Goodafternoon, My now 3 yr old daughter who has autism had cronic diarrhea about 4 mo. ago. This particular bout lasted 2 mo or so. The GI doc. who we saw told us because she had limited her diet to so few foods she was not getting any fat in her diet at all. She didn't mind eating potato chips and tator tots(even though I think that isn't the most healthy thing to be eating every day either.) anyway the diarrhea cleared up almost immediatly. NOW... 2 wks ago for no reason the diarrhea is back, her diet hasn't changed, mainly because she won't eat anything besides tots, chips, rice mk, water,dates, bananas, raisins, apples, and some of the GFCF mixes I've made from Miss Robens. She also gets DMG, and Iron drops because she is anemic, and a Multi-vitamin. The diarrhea is the consistancy of Frosting or usually worse and the smell is enough to chase anyone or thing out of the room. Also there is alot of undigested food in there. (Not trying to make anyone sick!!!!!!)My quest. is this. The GI doc is running alot of stool tests, but doesn't know what to think. Does this situation sound familiar to anyone. PLEASE, I NEED SOME ADVICE. My daughter otherwise seems happy, not losing any weight. Still this isnt normal I don't think. Thank You anyone with any suggestions... I'm at a loss Loving Mother of a very loving and dear child Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
