Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 I have a nt guy with severe food allergies, had issues with breast milk. Looking back it was when I ate peanut butter. He also had eczema has a baby, 8 weeks maybe earlier, a topic dermatitis per the dr. He'd sneezed, eyes swollen, mystery rashes took him in more than once thinking RSV, wheezing and retracting. Gurrrr....he too was allergic to all trying, Gerber Rice coral as soy, bananas, apples, tried oats, a little yogurt, no finger foods he'd munch on! 9 months, body rash from trying to introduce soy formula, milk formula he'd spit up. We had skin testing at 9 months. You should have seen the look on the nurses face. I guess my guy wins the award for what my local doctors have seen with allergies. Moved, they too are amazed. Honestly, I like blood testing better. Our is done with Mayo but have had other allergists use like a lab from Texas, one from CA. Now we just use Mayo. Honestly, I'd join POFAKS, parents of food allergic kids. I'd think your gi maybe could have recommended a formula only diet until the stomach is healed and then introduce foods one at a time. I'm blank on the name of formula, but you could still do. I think feeding the same thing over and over and over, not good. Rotation. Are you able to do chicken, turkey, pork, potatoes, sweet, squash? I'd get allergy testing done with blood and get an idea of the big eight and others. You didn't list his allergens. I use Kirkman Labs hypo vitamins with no issues. Multi, vit c, d, e, mag, biotin, Enzymedica Digest, milk thistle. I get ALA from them, a hypo version too, and divide a 25 mg in thirds, he does fine, 52 lbs. We've only done 5 rounds. But that's my plan. We've out grown asthma pretty much, one attach this past winter but induced by a really bad cold. No more singulair and now at 7.6 eating a few more things but still a ton of issues. Will do NAET next summer for sure! Need more chelation. Probiotics, we haven't had luck. Need to try again. My goal for summer. We had constipation, big time issues. This are rolling fine here so ate to upset it. Allergic to milk, soy, wheat, gluten, oats, peanuts, peas, eggs (we still think) bananas (still an issues) cranberry, alovera, think pineapple. Eating apples and strawberries. Fruits are hard. Seems fine with green beans once in a while, do no other beans. Rotation is key for sure! My experience. Tammy [ ] New here and kind of OT about allergies My son is two years old and basically allergic to everything. He developed eczema at 4 wks old which I was able to get under control with Nutramigen formula, but it still gave him runny stools. When it came time to introduce foods, he reacted to everything. I started with the allergist who did some scratch tests. Some positives at that time, trialed more foods, back to the allergist who sent me to a gi dr, who in turn sent me back to the allergist. I have pretty much been doing this on my own for the past year and a half. I do take him back to the allergist when I'm unsure about reactions and make them test him. His reactions include watery eyes, runny nose, eczema, rashes, mucousy stools, sometimes gritty foul smelling stools, diarrhea. For a while he could only tolerate rice, beef, and lamb. This was long enough for me to potty train him at 18 months. Shortly after though, the diarrhea started back up, so he has regressed in that area. He ended up being allergic to all those. He comes back positive to almost everything IgE and IgG. He is on an extremely restricted rotation diet including 1 meat, 1 fruit, and 1 vegetable a day. I do still have to give him the beef and lamb because I really don't have any other options right now and his numbers for those were pretty low. Could his allergies be due to metal toxicity? My daughter has some autistic symptoms and several food sensitivites too. Is there something that can help heal some of these and we can consider chelation later? Possibly quercetin? I tried OLE but it caused bad eczema flair up. Anything else I should be giving him? Right now he's on Transformation Digestzyme powdered enzyme 1/8 tsp 3x a day and a probiotic. Recommendations for good probiotics would also be appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 I don't think you should wait on the chelation, my son was a lot like that, but he also has autistic symptoms and brain fog with the allergies. Since starting chelation 6 months ago he is no longer allergic to apples, carrots, beef, chicken, oranges, tomato, grapes, strawberries, pepper,  WHEAT! and many other foods he could not tolerate before. It is so much easier to live and not feel like I'm poisoning my child with every bite of food! Without chelation I don't know where we would be.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 No. You don't need to heal the gut. That is DAN doctor BS. It's a great way to sell you lots of expensive supplements. The gut will heal when you get the metals out. You'll get the metals out by chelating. My son had bad excema and it cleared after about six months of chelation. The hair test is on sale right now for only $60. If you never get started with chelation, you will never finish. The brain heals quicker and easier the younger the child.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Whoa, slow down there hombre, you're dropping some heavy bombs that not everyone, including myself, may be able to handle. Could you take a little more time to describe what problems you have with the DAN methods? Or about why you think it's ok to start chelating right away without dealing with gut/yeast/allergy/virus/bacteria/mthylation pathway issues first? Not saying you're wrong, just looking for useful information like most other people in the group. Thanks. TJ Werth wrote: > > > No. You don't need to heal the gut. That is DAN doctor BS.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Are any of the foods tolerable with enzymes? That's quite a list..I think healing up the gut with chelation would probably be the safest route.. as just chelation alone can make things a little wonky in the beginning.. and tons of enzymes and probiotics.. try custom probiotics.. no reactions to that here (and we have laundry lists of allergies here too..) cytoflora has also been huge here.. but I have heard issues of others with the strep strain in it (oh and its $$$$)... and Harry (custom probiotics) might even be able to mix something up to suit you if you can't find anything there.

I imagine it like you are on one mountain peak and need to reach the next mountain over.. there are a lot of ways to get there.. some wilding swinging off a rope.. some with a rickety bridge.. some with a lot of foresight, planning and bubble wrap. You found the latter here. I am trying to cure allergies (and mild ASD) here too.. the ASD went to PDD-NOS… and now we are entering NT.. foods are still an issue.. but minor infractions are now tolerable as opposed to before, which tells me we are on the right track.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 TJ is right, unfortunately. Having metals in your system keeps a lot of things in your body out of balance. It would be hard to write everything down that I've learned over the past 3 or 4 years, so think of it this way: you can try to balance things in the body with minerals, vitamins, antifungals, antibiotics, antivirals and lessen inflammation by going on an allergen free diet, etc., but it is never going to end if you don't fix the root cause of the problem. The root of the problem is toxic metals. They displace or replace minerals in the body, disrupt enzymes that break down our food, cause oxidative stress, mess up hormone levels...Because of the minerals they displace/replace, they mess up all kinds of metabolic and cellular cycles in the body where the minerals are needed. Let me give you an example: aluminum can take the place of magnesium on the Na+ K pump BUT it will not cause the pump to work the same as the magnesium, it will make it pump faster, messing up the cell volume. But the replacing of essential minerals (like aluminum does) is not the only problem, the displacing is a major problem. When calcium, magnesium, and iron are displaced (from mercury, aluminum and lead mostly), they are sometimes stored and become breeding grounds for bacteria, viruses and other pathogens. For example: look up pseudomonas aeruginosa, it's involvement in biofilm with calcium and iron. Mercury in the brain is an oxidizer and iron as well. The body can rid the iron to try and restore the oxidant/antioxidant balance, but cannot rid the mercury without a chelator. If that is the case, not enough iron (or even stored iron in the wrong places) means that hemoglobin may not be effective in transporting oxygen to all the parts of the brain like it is supposed to. We know that the treatments listed above help autism, but you would literally be doing them forever if you didn't chelate. In fact, you may worsen things by making some pathogens resistant to the treatments cause you never took away their food or their cozy environment. The only way to restore balance and get the minerals back to normal is to chelate. That said, I do believe that some have issues that will not completely resolve. I know I am giving my children the best chance for a healthy life by chelating them. > > > > > > I don't think you should wait on the chelation, my son was a lot > > like that, but he also has autistic symptoms and brain fog with the > > allergies.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Don't be scared. I remember doing biomed from age 22 mos until a little passed age 3 with my son, when I found this group. Chelation scared the heck out of me. My spouse and family fought me ever step of the way. Finally when my son was 3 years and 3 months old, I just took out a dmsa capsule and divided it into tiny amounts, and just did a round one weekend. My essentially non verbal child at that point, told my husband that he loved him that weekend, and ate with gusto for the first time in his life. No more fights with the family after that. Big sounding world, simple thing to do, simpler than anything else in biomed we ever did then or since. And the only thing that will ever cure your child. My son used to be riddled with eczema, vomiting, multiple allergies. We have done 78 rounds now - he is still gfcf - but can eat eggs, and corn, can tolerate certain types of dairy (hard cheese with enzymes) and can have small bits of gluten with enzymes here and there with no real consequence. No bowel issues, no bacteria, no parasites anymore, no yeast. We are hopeful by round 100 that he will be able to eat more things and return to a more normal diet. In the beginning they told me he was a " severe " case, then after some initial biomed interventions, when my son was officially tested he had improved to PDD-nos, and with chelation has gained many skills and is considered high functioning. One day we are confident he will improve right off the spectrum.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 It's never too late, it just takes longer. Also when a child is older they are harder to control. Right now we are able to put all the supps and chelators in their sippy cups or mix it in their food. When a child gets older it's harder to get away with that. Plus teenagers naturally rebel as part of growing up.

We spent years and much $$ healing the gut, scopes, etc. etc. only to find now my daughter is 15, we waited and waited and am not sure how much she can get better. I don't recommend waiting on the gut thing either... Kathy [ ] Re: New here and kind of OT about allergies Do you need to heal the gut before starting chelation? I would also like to order the hair test too, but right now I really need get my daughter under control first.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 These are the great results that keep us all going, and also keep us on this board trying to tell others the good news. TJ ________________________________ From: iflow97 <iflow97@...> Sent: Thu, April 8, 2010 1:53:21 PM Subject: [ ] Re: New here and kind of OT about allergies  Don't be scared. I remember doing biomed from age 22 mos until a little passed age 3 with my son, when I found this group. Chelation scared the heck out of me. My spouse and family fought me ever step of the way. Finally when my son was 3 years and 3 months old, I just took out a dmsa capsule and divided it into tiny amounts, and just did a round one weekend. My essentially non verbal child at that point, told my husband that he loved him that weekend, and ate with gusto for the first time in his life. No more fights with the family after that. Big sounding world, simple thing to do, simpler than anything else in biomed we ever did then or since. And the only thing that will ever cure your child. My son used to be riddled with eczema, vomiting, multiple allergies. We have done 78 rounds now - he is still gfcf - but can eat eggs, and corn, can tolerate certain types of dairy (hard cheese with enzymes) and can have small bits of gluten with enzymes here and there with no real consequence. No bowel issues, no bacteria, no parasites anymore, no yeast. We are hopeful by round 100 that he will be able to eat more things and return to a more normal diet. In the beginning they told me he was a " severe " case, then after some initial biomed interventions, when my son was officially tested he had improved to PDD-nos, and with chelation has gained many skills and is considered high functioning. One day we are confident he will improve right off the spectrum. Don't be afraid, it is not dangerous if done according to the Cutler protocol (frequent, low dose) get started, it is a long, slow, but rewarding process.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 I will answer the concern with DAN methods here from my " experience " not my 3rd hand opinion. - We were told this " gut healing " stuff and sold many expensive supplements from the doctor herself. - Then we were given a very harmful chelation protocol. At one point up to 600mg DMSA once a day up the pooper. I later found out that this causes re-distribution of metals, causing more cell damage (some of those brain cells). Thank God my boy has a few to spare. - We were subscribed B-12 shots that didn't do anything except cause aggression. - We were subscribed and sold expensive " Antioxidant " supplement that contained 50mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid. The doctor didn't even know that ALA is a chelator and once again this caused re-distribution due to the fact that it was given once a day. I think it is great to address yeast, bacteria issues, diet issues, etc..but from my experience and what I have read, these are all symptoms of the ROOT CAUSE, which is heavy metal intoxication, mercury usually being the worst offender. If a man was hungry and he took pills to make himself not feel the hunger, eventually he would die. The root cause of the feeling of hunger is that he is hungry. The man needs to eat, not take pills. Same thing with mercury poisoning. First priority and your main focus of your efforts and finances should be to get rid of the mercury. Then as a second priority, treat the symptoms to make your child more comfortable while you are chelating. 15 minutes ago my 5 year old boy called me on the phone and said hello. He said he took his little brother and grandfather to the park. Two years ago he didn't talk at all. After one year of Andy Cutler protocol chelation (proper chelation) I finally feel like he is going to be OK. There, I wrote a book. There are also great reads in the file section and the FAQs.

Could you take a little more time to describe what problems you have with the DAN methods? Or about why you think it's ok to start chelating right away without dealing with gut/yeast/allergy/ virus/bacteria/ mthylation pathway issues first? Not saying you're wrong, just looking for useful information like most other people in the group. Thanks. TJ Werth wrote: > > > No. You don't need to heal the gut. That is DAN doctor BS.
