Guest guest Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I posted the questions about how long it would take to see the results... and got a few different answers. Thank you. I am still receiving so much conflicting information, which is understandable because everyone's child is different and their apraxia may " show " differently too. My son has never had atypical behavioral issues -- he is easy to transition and shows willingness to learn from his therapists most of the time. He has had loose fecal matter from " day one " and we have been testing for malabsorption, etc. No answers. Negative celiac... we've taken out every grain (except corn and rice) with NO results. We are giving iron supplementation for the low ferritan levels and he is getting 1/2 tablespoons daily of fish oil. At the moment he is also getting 1 tsp of elderberry to stave off any flu possibility. Since he has been taking fish oil for a LONG time now (over a year), wondering if anyone else has had the result of loose stools caused by fish oil intake. We took out: all grains (minus rice and corn), eggs, milk (but not all dairy so he is eating yogurt and a little bit of cheese and that is only because he has so many things removed from his diet that we couldn't take out these without some nutritional support from a dietician... unfortunately the only dietician who has experience with this kind of stuff is on maternity leave... so we WAIT) So, we have been trying this diet since late July and have seen no observable results... no increase in speech and no resolution of the eczema. VERY FRUSTRATED... hate cooking now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
