Yeast or Die off? Going Crazy ... please help me (Dana)

[Guest guest]

Hi All-

I have been racking my brain and going crazy trying to figure out if my seven

year old's sudden motor tics are a sign of yeast or die off. We are almost three

months into transdermal LDN. That is the newest addition to my son's exiting

protocol. The only other new addition is a rotation in anti-fungal treatment and

probiotics. Our DAN doc suggested we try Kirkman's Yeast Aid. I am wondering if

this could be the culprit. When I doubled the dose from 2 to 4 caps along with

Nizoral or Nystatin the motor tic began (stretches neck up and then tucks chin

into chest as well as clucking and some throat clearing). I immediately brought

the dose back down to 2 caps but the tics are still present. In the past, when

we had yeast issues we did not see motor tics. His ASO titers were done last

month and they were in normal range so I don't think we are dealing with strep

(although he showed 4+ for two different forms of gut strep on his comprehensive

stool test two months ago) Could their be something in the Yeast Aid that he is

responding negatively to or could it be the right combination that we are seeing

die off? Die off in the past usually took on the form of aggression and

irritability but never tics. I am so confused and it is driving me crazy. Any

thoughts or suggestions would be a tremendous help.

YEAST AID (4 caps = serving)

OLE 200 mg

Pau D'Arco 220 mg

Goldenseal 100 mg

Caprylic Acid 100 mg

Oregano 100 mg

Thanks,

Dayna
