Guest guest Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 Actually, I was ridiculed by a gastro doctor for wanting to test. But, since it seems that tradition tests for celiacs disease are full of false negatives in children, i just went to enterolabs. The tests came back with very low IgA levels. The gene analysis did come back showing that she had the main gene that predisposes one gluten sensitivity. But then i read somewhere that about a third of the population has this gene. So i'm wondering what that could mean. I also had a partial placental abruption at 13 weeks with her. Had another at her birth at 33 weeks. interesting. She doens't have any facial paralysis. She does have abnormal sensory issues. Her scalp is hyper-sensitive (during regressions i cannot wash it). Whereas her mouth is hypo sensitive. She used to each hot-spicy foods at one year. She once grabbed a bite ful of hot food with no reactin. An hour later i noticed a burn blister on her lip. alicia > > > > Thanks Kathy. i've printed your post and have gone thru it very > > carefully. > > > > My daugther was tested negative for celiacs.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 That is one of the main problems with the enterolabs tests. Unless you do a BLOOD test for quantitative serum IgA, total, the fact that the IgA anti-gliadin, anti-casein, and anti- tissue transglutaminase are very low means NOTHING. You can't have an IgA reaction to anything if you don't have enough IgA in the first place--but you can still have serious problems with gluten and even classical celiac. And (besides myself), a high percentage (8%), compared to the general population (1/500), of children on the autism spectrum DO have IgA deficiency. So you need a doctor or somebody who is willing to test for total serum IgA. Or else...you still may have celiac. Enterolabs does not do IgG tests for celiac. The only one available is anti-gliadin IgG. If your pediatrician will not do a serum IgA, then ask for a referral to a pediatric immunologist. They are the ones who cover this issue. A doctor who ridicules you for requesting a test is probably a doctor who doesn't know how to interpret the results. (Being my age, I just call a spade a spade, sorry if this is blunt.) Benny's mouth is also hyposensitive for texture but probably hypersensitive for taste. Very strange about the placental abruptions. That may have been an opportunity for passage of antigens mother/fetus or something, who knows..

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 Quote from a medical journal abstract: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency is 10 to 15 times more common in patients with celiac disease (CD) than in healthy subjects. Serological tests have become the preferred methods of diagnosing CD in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. However, commercially available serological methods are limited in that they detect only the IgA isotype of antibodies (with the exception of IgG gliadin assays); hence, IgA-deficient patients with CD may yield false-negative serology. Whole abstract is here, maybe you can print it out for him: http://cdli.asm.org/cgi/content/abstract/9/6/1295 Peace, Kathy E. > > > > Actually, I was ridiculed by a gastro doctor for wanting to test. > > But, since it seems that tradition tests for celiacs disease are > > full of false negatives in children, i just went to enterolabs.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 I will look into getting her a serum IgA test. I should be able to get the test myself in this country. I don't relish the idea of getting her blood taken tho. Last year she got tested for chronic and acute allergies from a blood test and it was quite a tramatic experience. any recommendations for other blood test that can be done that can make use of a blood draw? > > > > Actually, I was ridiculed by a gastro doctor for wanting to test. > > But, since it seems that tradition tests for celiacs disease are > > full of false negatives in children, i just went to enterolabs.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Marina, Has your daughter had her gut scoped? Pamela " Courage is doing what you're afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you're scared. " Eddie Rickenbacker, top US fighter ace, WWI _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of don_and_mil Sent: Sunday, November 26, 2006 2:31 PM Subject: [ ] Need help! Dear Listmates, We continue to struggle with horrible self-injury and our daughter's aggression towards others is escalating. I have removed all supplements now, except VSL#3. She has been on metronidazole/Flagyl since August for Gamma Strep in the gut. She is almost 16 yrs. old, and this is only the sixth course of antibiotics we've had her on, even though she has had repeated ear infections. Every time she's been on antibiotics, no matter which on, her ears still are running pus out of them. I hate having her on antibiotics. I do not feel the Flagyl has helped her OCD symptoms, which is partly why we started it. In the meantime, she still has draining ears. She is non verbal so I have no idea what is causing her head- banging, body slamming behaviors. I can guess that it's either/or her gut, her ears, a headache, a nightmare in the night, barometric pressure changes, moon changes, temperature changes, odors, a supplement, a food, a lack of minerals, you name it. It's a real guessing game. She has been on every known diet. The only diet that cleared up her ears was SCD, but she still had terrible behaviors. I abandoned SCD because of being accused of child abuse over it. Obviously her ears are not the only possible issue with the self-injury and aggression. We have done chelation, with poor results. We have been attempting to do Dr. Yasko's protocol, but never get very far because the supplements seem to make her worse. All supplements seem to be a problem. I believe she is Vitamin B deficient, yet she reacts to those, too. I started giving her just a half a dropperful of liquid Bs a few weeks ago---am not sure if that's part of the escalation of behavior or not, so have removed them, along with Vit K. She was only getting one drop of Vit K per day. We have begun the process of looking for an institution for her. This is a painful decision to make, believe me. One option given me this morning was to send her to the Behavioral Health Center where she would be an inpatient for two to four months while they try to figure out what medications would work to control her. This, too, is not a happy option for me, but I am not sure our family and school personnel can take much more of what she is dishing out. Her classmates are terrified of her at this point. Her aide is threatening to quit. Her little brothers have both asked me why she can't go live somewhere else. If anyone has a child like this and could shed some light on what has worked for you, please contact me off list. I cannot take the volume of emails that are generated by the lists. And sorry for the cross post. I am hoping to find a gem of information that until now I haven't had. And thanks for the help.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Hello Marina, I too have been where you are now-I am sorry your daughter is suffering---- but guess what my son is better now. I beleave your daughter has two problems to be addressed first. 1- head aches due to the lack of Magnesium- I use Magnesium Ascorbate alone and I give 1/4 teaspoon mixed with honey in an eyedropper when ever I see verbal destress comming on(my son is non-verbal too) they call these head aches suicide head aches- my son comes to me to get relief from them - and pinches and hit anyone who is near -his way of showing his distress and asking for help. If I where in your home today I would start giving Magnesium every hour and a half-until I saw loose bowel movements then back down to a schedule with no loose stools. http://www.enzymestuff.com/magnesium.htm 2- yeast- (the honey above could cause more of a problem- you may have to find a substitute)I am afraid behaviors are going to get worse for a short time as you make things better.( die off is hard on the body) With my son he had the red pulling of the ears ect. ect. THIS was YEAST OverGrowth in my son. I would rethink the treatment plan for the ear problems. http://www.enzymestuff.com/conditionbacteria.htm Here is a great paper with info on treatment and supplements amount http://puterakembara.org/rm/Dr_Jepson.pdf My sons behavior that made me get to the point you are at and thinking about an institution - stemmed from me stopping the supplements he was on -it too got so confusing for me that I thought the supplements where the problem- in the end they saved my son from misery -really. I want to come to your home and sit dowm with the family and say that the plan will be for the next year to get your daughter back on track and everyone will have to wait that long to see if and then vote on where your daughter should live. There are really so many things that I can think of right now that could be adding to your daughter problems - pH problems, leaky gut, hormones, I hope you have the strenght to find the answers. http://www.nutrition4health.org/NOHAnews/NNW95Excitoxins.htm (really bad stuff) You must be a great mom... and you and your daughter will be in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Hi There: ***Welcome. We like to go by first names here (rather than email addresses) so let us know what to call you. > I have been on prevacid for excessive stomach acid and lately I have been taking amoxicillin for a sinus infection that won't go away. I haven't been diagnosed with Candida, however reading through the symptoms associated with Candida it would appear that I do. *** Bee has often said in the past that most people who think they have high stomach acid actually have low stomach acid. Here's one of her articles about it. http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/dig14.php I'm sure she can discuss this further with you, if necessary. But, I know she would not recommend the Prevacid in any case. Nor the amoxicillin. Most people on this group have found that the drugs given to them by doctors don't actually cure them... they just mask the symptoms. And they make us sicker in the long run. This program is about harnessing the healing power of your own body and using a truly healthy diet to encourage this. >As soon as I stop taking prevacid the acid returns, but I seem to have gotten it under >control with a combination of acidophilus, enzymes, acv and cayenne pepper. All of the >other symptoms remain though, tiredness, itch, sinus problems, foggyness. I can't >remember the last time I have had a good night sleep. *** You'll see that Bee doesn't recommend the acidophilus or enzymes either, for good reasons. Your list of symptoms are classic Candida symptoms, by the way. You can take Crook's test if you like, which is on Bee's website. But you also need to learn about this diet which will help you. > > I'm just not sure where to start, thinking back I believe I've had this for about 8 years now. *** First things first: you need to read a few articles that will help you understand this diet. The articles also help you get started. Please read them through and then get back to us with your questions. You are in the right place. Bee has helped many people with problems like yours. There are many folks on this board who have come here for help with digestion/fatigue/sinus/foggyness/sleep issues.... it's all Candida. Here are the articles: How to Successfully Overcome Candida http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/intro2.php Curing Candida, How to Get Started http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/intro1.php For encouragement and inspiration see these wonderful Success Stories by members of this group: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/success/index.php The only way to cure candida: Candida cannot be cured by " killing it off. " It just doesn't work that way. Candida is only cured by building up the immune system, which is done by: Consuming " proper nutrients " (diet plus supplements), Eliminating toxins and foods that feed candida (they also feed bacteria and cancer), Eliminating damaging foods, and Eliminating toxins in general. When the immune system is strong enough it will automatically " make " candida (or any bug, cancer, etc.) change back into the microbe it was before. After you read, get back to us with your questions. All the best, Marissa (a group moderator) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 OMG the set of problems you describe is very much what i have had too.. But even before i came to know about Candida and then Bee i have had very tight control on what I ate(for nearly 2 plus years). Hope everyone of us in " bee Wilder " group get better soon! best regards senthil On 7 February 2010 17:18, ijamieson@... <ijamieson@...> wrote: > > > I have been on prevacid for excessive stomach acid and lately I have been > taking amoxicillin for a sinus infection that won't go away.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Try switching to AC protocol. What supps are they on? 250 is way too high unless they weigh 300-1000 lbs. What are the " getting sick " symptoms? I presume they have NO mercury amalgam dental fillings and haven't had any recent vaccines?! S S Need help! Posted by: " rhondamasengale " rhondamasengale@... rhondamasengale Tue Mar 30, 2010 10:54 am (PDT) My boys have been chelating using the Dan protocol; 1- 250 mg dmsa support at night for 3 nights, then off 11 nights. Since last year. So we chelate every other week. They seem to tolerate It well. Metal burdens are coming down. I tried to add in ala 2 months ago. After 6 rounds, they seem to be getting very sick from chelating so I decreased ala from 25 mg to 12.5 mg and it didn't seem to make a difference, still getting sick. I dropped the ala entirely and tried just going back to dmsa only and they are still getting very sick. What could be going on? I need to finish chelating, but I am afraid I am hurting them.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Is it necessary to give ALA every 3 hours at night? I thought you could go 4hrs at night. We have done 31 rounds and almost always have one 3hr and 45min strectch, since my son often stays away after his 4:30am, if given every three hours, so we stretch it until about 5:15 which he also stays awake, the extra 45minutes helps. Please someone tell me if this is incorrect. Thanks, > > > > My boys have been chelating using the Dan protocol; 1- 250 mg dmsa > > support at night for 3 nights, then off 11 nights. Since last year.

Please someone > tell me if this is incorrect. > Certainly not ideal. It falls under the " one hour grace period " which is the justification for the 4 hours at night. The clock resets at each dose. If you do 10:30 1:30 then 5:15, the next dose is at 8:15. If you let it go past 5:30, you should stop the round, since it's more than one hour late. > > Thanks, > > > > > > > > > My boys have been chelating using the Dan protocol; 1- 250 mg dmsa > > > support at night for 3 nights, then off 11 nights.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 That is usually long enough, I suggest Houston TriEnza and follow the low and slow dosing instructions that Houston can give you. That means he is trying all the enzymes that might be useful _www.Houston-Enzymes.com_ (http://www.Houston-Enzymes.com) HTH Mandi in UK PS I will also mail you the 7 month summary report from this group of folks using Houston Peptizyde and HN Zyme which formed the basis for the De Felice books In a message dated 13/10/2010 22:10:16 GMT Daylight Time, Barbin@... writes: My husband does not want me to spend alot of money doing this, and he has asked that I try one enzyme for say 6 weeks, and see what that does.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 A book for your husband might be Dr. Bock's " Healing the Four A's: Autism, ADHD, Asthma & Allergies " .

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 I like the Enzymes and Autism book, or McCarthy's Healing and Preventing Autism (newest book). As for an Enzyme, we started with Digest Basic, but quickly moved to Trienza. If your hubby is only allowing you 1, I would try Trienza, but start with maybe a 1/2 capsule at a time, since it is so new. That way you get 3 enzymes in 1 (as it is a mix of 3 of there most popular enzymes). Our daughter stopped her worst tamtruming within a week of starting enzyme therapy. She used to slam her body to the ground everyday when we returned home, and she would cry and scream. She would also throw her sippy cup everytime we handed it to her, and bang her head on the ground. We were fortunate to see an a;most immediate end to this behavior with Enzymes (but of course not all children will have such a positive response). Hope that helps a little bit. Good luck, Spring > > > > I am married to a nurse, who does not believe that going natural and using enzymes will help our 13 yr old son.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Would your spouse consider gluten and or caesin free diet also due to the types of foods you list. I know it may be hard to do with a13 year old but one example is that caffeine is a stimulant. Sounds like some the foods he is craving may be causing some harm as well. Dr jepson from thoughtful house is a Dan doctors has a son with autism and has a book out your spouse may be able to relate to. Tisha Brown Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry Re: Need help!
