Need help with continuing yeast protocol

[Guest guest]

Hello all. Here's the very quick and dirty on my kids and where

we're at with yeast.

3 1/2 year old - no formal dx but was slipping away 18 months ago

and we started working with a DAN. Virtually zero symptoms of

anything spectrum related left. Found a ton of yeast in his

testing. Did one course of Nystatin with great/violent result. 2nd

course for yeast was GSE and similar result. Switched to ThreeLac

and seem to be in a nice groove - concerns that perhaps we've hit a

plateau and maybe we need a jump start?

7 year old NT son with yeast issues (took him to the DAN for well

being/overall health). Found very high arabinose in his urine. DAN

suggested we start Nystatin but we're not big fans of it and wanted

to try Threelac. Still wearing a pull up at night due to being such

a heavy sleeper and at times he's very fidgety. DAN also feels that

the overnight bedwetting could be yeast related, as could the

fidgetness.

I have a phone appt with the DAN on Friday to get on the same page

with both boys at this time. Will be doing an in person physical

exam with them in a few weeks after an updated round of blood tests

and urine.

What I'd like is some guidance or commentary on the yeast regimine

we are doing. Is it possible to get too used to threelac? Should

we be adding biotin or gse or both? I would really like to avoid

Nystatin if possible. Are biotin or gse available in chewables or

easy to swallow capsules? I know the GSE is horrible tasting in

drop form.

I'm so reluctant to STOP the threelac because we do feel it keeps

things calm in both boys. But I'm wondering if their systems need a

jump start/jolt with something new. Any thoughts appreciated.

Some kids, especially strep/PANDAS kids, don't tolerate it.

Biotin was essential here. I gave GSE if I could not control the

yeast with just biotin.

Biotin comes in tiny capsules. You can put GSE drops into a capsule,

that might work for you.
