Zoe -- carnitine, thanks!

[Guest guest]

Zoe -- Thanks, as always. I will definitely do some

research with Sigma Tau.

I've been a little wary of carnitine because there

have been kids on the keto list who did worse on it.

Apparently it lists increased seizures as a possible

side effect. It's a very expensive test, but I'm

going to ask our family practice doc to order it for

her. We're going to test for Hepatitis, just to rule

it out and the naturopath we're working with wants a

Homocystine (sp?) test to see about her absorption of

B6, B12 and folic acid.

Re: my " lynching " comment. . .I was probably too

strong. I just meant that people who are on the diet

(including me) are very pro diet. . .especially

instead of meds. I was referring not to her neuro

(who would probably take her off the diet and onto a

med in a heartbeat) -- but rather to my keot

list-mates. Nobody's ever heard of the diet elevating

liver enzymes -- but it just makes sense to me that a

diet extremely high in fat would be harder on the

liver. Anyway, I adore everyone on that list. . .so

if you're on the keto list and reading. . .I love you.

.. . no worries.--D
