I have a question.

[Guest guest]

It sounds like it. are you taking any fiber to help the bowels? do this and

drink lots of distilled water and stay on the diet. it varies with each

person. i had one, it took 24 hours than another 24 hrs i had another. Good

Luck! Mogdrmom

I am wondering what this die off feels like. I have never been

through this process before. I woke up this morning and I have a low

grade fever, I am nauseous and I feel like I need to go to the

bathroom constantly but I haven't been able to go. Also, my skin

infection seems to have almost went away over night. In general, I

feel terrible. Is this it? How long does it last?

Thanks for any words of wisdom.

[Guest guest]

Sounds like die-off to me! Drink as much water as you can stand (I

aim for 3l a day, filtered if possible) to wash the bad stuff out, and

you should start to feel better in a week or so. If your bladder is

sore, add a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to a pint of water and

drink it down - should neutralise things down there and ease the

discomfort.

Hope this passes soon!

Duration and severity of die-off depends generally on A) how severe

of an overgrowth problem you have, how quickly you try to kill it

off, C) if you have overgrowth in the G.I. tract only, or systemic,

D) what kind of anti-fungals you are using. When I started, I was

using only 250 milligrams of caprylic acid a day. Die-off lasted

about four days. After each leveling off, die-off returns as I bump

up the dosage of my anti-fungals (which are garlic, caprylic acid,

tea tree oil, Pau D' Arco.) It's impossible for anyone to give you a

precise answer. At any rate, if you want to know if you really have a

candida problem, the best way to tell is a trial with anti-fungals.

If you have die-off while you take them, and no die-off two days

after you quit, odds are you got a yeast overgrowth problem. Then

embrace the die-off. It's telling you that you are killing the yeast.

[Guest guest]

By the way, drink as much water as you can (as others have said), and

take 5 to 10 grams of Vitamin C per day. Make sure you get decent

amounts of A and E. Take psyllium and bentonite to help the colon

eliminate better. Molybdenum and Barberry help to metabolize ammonia,

acetylaldehyde (which is what ethanol turns into, and what makes

people " hungover " after drinking liquor), and formaldehyde (which are

some of the major toxins caused by killing the yeast/fungus.) Some

people think biotin makes them feel better. Biotin certainly does

keep the yeast from going into the fungal form, so take biotin.

[Guest guest]

I have never had the terrible dye off symptoms that others seem to be having. I

felt a

little sore and sick but it was nothing compared to the FMS symptoms that it

relieved. I

do know that i had a yeast over growth, it was so bad that I had blisters and

such inside

my mouth, which went away with in the first few days. The week or so before i

started

though i was so sick that could only keep chicken breast and eggs down, is it

possible that

I was having a die off then? and when i added the acidophilus and supplements it

helped to

balance me out? I was just curious.

, my son is the same age as yours and sounds like

on the same level. He talks ALOT but is not always

understandable. Maybe I'm wrong, but to me your son

sounds " shy " . My son is like that for the first few

minutes and then warms up. He also seems to be more

quiet around people that he knows don't understand him.

Could that be the case for Graham?

Feel free to email me personally if you want.

It sounds to as if this is an intelligent little boy who is aware that he

is " different, " and is perhaps afraid to " make a mistake " in public. I

don't think this behavior in and of itself is a big concern, also he is

still very little. My daughter, when she speaks at all, is very hesitant in

public, seems to know that what is in her brain doesn't come out that way

when she tries to vocalize her thoughts.

The big concern is getting him a diagnosis and appropriate services, so

keep your focus there.

I was just wondering about something I have noticed about my son. Most of

you know he has yet to be diagnosed with any thing yet. He is 4.4 and has

many delays. Well, he talks alot. ( Although, he is hard to understand.)

But when we get in a public place I can not get him to respond to me. I

ask him questions. He just grunts. He can even be having a great time and

won't respond. It just started concerning me. we took him on a trip

yesterday and were all having a great time and Graham wasn't talking. I

asked him if he was okay and he grunted. I said Graham, I can't understand

you . He whispered yes. I had to ask him alot of questions to get him to

make any sound at all. Should I be concerned about this behavior. Or

could he just not like crowds.

My son who is 8 (almost 9) and has developmental verbal

dyspraxia has always had a quiet " public " personality . At home he would

talk alot although frequently not understandable (Now, he is usually

understandable), but in public or even with company at our home, he would

close up. Of course that didn't prevent him from having an occassional

meltdown of frustration when he wasn't being understood even when in

public. Often, though, he would remain quiet and even passive while in

public and then vent his frustration at home. I believe he just wasn't

secure enough in some situations or around certain people to risk not being

understood. This is something that has faded alot as his communication

skills have improved.

Hey -

My son was the same way until just recently. I think it was because he was

self conscious and he knew others couldn't understand him. As his

confidence grows, and his vocabulary grows - my son seems to be opening up

to others as well.

I wwonder where you would check on the legality of when you can leavew them

alone. i know in my county a child is suppose to be 13 to be left alone. Not

a bad law in my opinion, but i wonder if there are any laws specifically

concerning children with developmental delays. interesting thread!!

In AZ, the child is supposed to be 12 before they are left home alone.

Wow- I cant believe someone asked this! I've been pondering this myself and

didnt really want to write about it.

So, here's our situation- has been staying alone for short periods- 15

mins -1/2 hour after school until someone comes home ( a sitter or ralph).

She's been fine. I usually call her and keep her on the phone.

But the other day, unbeknown to me, she ended up alone for about an hour- and

someone was coming to pick her up to take her to dance class. So, I call

home, no answer, I call the dance studio- the person is late on her way in a

cab.

I call ralph- cell phone not working. I'm almost ready to call 911. Then I

remember that my brother is staying with us- so I call his cell phone. Yeah,

he saw her but had to leave for work, so she said the sitter was coming in a

few minutes dont worry. So he left her with his cell phone # and left.

So the scary part for me was that the sitter had to ring the bell. And that

is was an hour, not the usual 15 mins.

Well, of course, it was fine- she got to dance class and handled the hour

fine. I put my heart back in my chest. But, I'm still really leary about

leaving her alone. She loves it and feels very grown up and begs me to stay

alone

for short periods.

Again, so glad we could discuss this issue!!!!

[Guest guest]

We leave (17) at home for short periods by himself. He has very strict

instructions about the door and the phone. He screens the calls and when he

hears our voice(s), he picks up. He is never to answer the door or leave it

unlocked. We really need to get him into the Red Cross course for just this

situation but we can't find another Red Cross who does this.

Elaine

I have a question.

My question is, How do you know when you can leave your child home

alone for short periods of time like 30-60 mins. My son will soon be

16 and I think he is okay to be home for short periods of time alone.

He doesn't wander or get into things. He will just watch tv or work

on puzzles etc.

What criteria is the official. Also this pertains to him comming home

alone after school alone. He would be home for 20-30 mins. alone.

When did you know you could leave your child home alone for short

periiods of time like this.

Your child must be able to feel comfortable being home alone, be able to handle

emergencies (police, fire and injuries), know how to use the telephone, knows

emergency contacts (besides 911- parents, neighbors, etc.) and have the ability

to be safe in the home (i.e. no cooking if using a stove is a no no) and prepare

snacks. For children with developmental disabilities - developmental age is

also a factor.

Play alot of what if games, role playing, etc. in preperation of mini trials.

By playing the what if game, you should be able to determine if it's ok to leave

your child home. There are kids who can and kids who can't.

Subject: Re: I have a question.

You know, this subject came up a year or so ago. If I remember correctly, it

seems to depend on where you live what they will allow. I think there were a

couple of people on the list who got in trouble for leaving their older teens

with ds home alone. And there were others where they said as long as the

parents felt confident that they were safe that they could leave them alone.

You might want to check that out.

I personally feel it's just like with all our kids.... when you feel

comfortable.... you do it...you know your children and you know what you are

comfortable letting them do. I just started leaving my child with DS who is

13 alone

with my 17 yr old this past year. And I would only leave him with my 14 yr

old

for 30 minutes or less. I KNOW how strong willed my son is....LOL. Of

course, I would only leave him with my mother for a short while, too....LOL!!!

Loree,

In Virginia, there are no laws regarding when one can leave their child

unsupervised; however, each jurisdiction has their own guidelines. My first few

years with DSS was doing child protection services.

Rumor has it that is our local policy also but I have never seen it in

writing. Also the same for babysitting.

My Stef stayed home for short periods at 12. She knew to call neighbors

(whom I usually told if I was going to be gone) if she needed help and she would

call my cell if she had a problem.

Now, as an adult, getting her her own cell is the best thing we have done!

She calls if there is a problem, she calls if we are late, asking where we are,

we can contact her almost all the time, she calls if she is running late so

we don't worry or if she has a change of plans she calls so we don't have to

rush to town to pick her up..... I think I love that phone of hers more than she

does!! ;-)

I believe, in Georgia, it is 12 to be alone for short times during the day. It

is 14 to watch a younger sibling during the day, and 16 to be home alone

overnight.

In a couple weeks I am supposed to have an operation on my cataracts. I am not

concerned with the procedure but would like to know if anyone out there has had

this done and did you have to stop taking your meds (azathioprene, imuran, etc.

before you had this done. The eye doctor does not feel the procedure is that

invasive, but then, he doesn't know a lot about AIH. I will try to contact my

Gastro and ask her, but I would still like to hear from anyone that might have

had this done.

Always wishing you well.....Ellie
