Re: Rich: Yasko UAA & UTM-EE results

August 24, 2006

Hi Trina,

Please send you post to www.autismanswer.com/forum . There is a lot they can

say about your results. Not sure if you have been posting there yet. Please

don't hesitate at all to get started.

Please cut back on protien . . . I am almost sure that is why you have high

ammonia.

Your creatine is consider high on the UTM which means you are killling virus.

The sodium/ potassium levels are some concern and I appoligize I don't remember

but it has to do with genetics some way.(my memory is terrible at times).

Glad you are off to a good start . . . these tests should be helpful, but

please post on the other forum, too.

Best wishs,

Sue T

Well, excellent timing as always! Rich, don’t worry about replying if

you’re too busy, but I thought you would like to know I got my baseline Urine

Amino Acids and Urine Toxic Metals with Essential Elements tests back (still

waiting on the MAP and, of course, the genetics). I do have high ammonia, but

not out of range: 41100, range 12000-49000. I don’t have high taurine or any of

the other markers for CBS upregulation (except most of my amino acids are low).

I took the test 5 days after stopping the ImmunoPro and lowering the protein in

my diet slightly (but still high protein), so I may not have been supporting my

methylation cycle anymore. I had taken charcoal off and on the week before,

including two nights before the test (but not the night before). The UTM-EE was

3 days later (had charcoal every one of those nights and lowered protein more in

those few days).

Creatinine in the AA test is 51. In the UTM, it’s 120. Both are spot, I wasn't

able to do 24-hour. Other stand out values are very low sodium (in spite of high

intake) and very high potassium. I assume this is because my adrenals are messed

up. Iron is non-existent even though it’s fine in blood tests. Tryptophan is

very high. Magnesium is low and Calcium is even lower.

Please let me know if you’d like me to e-mail you copies of the full results.

And everyone else feel free to comment too!

Thanks,

Trina

Thanks Sue,

Yep, I posted my results there and have been posting. Lots of helpful people!

Hard to figure out how far to cut back on the protein. I've continued to cut

back (meat only once a day now), but still have ammonia issues even with

charcoal and yucca, so I guess I need to cut back more.

I think the sodium-potassium stuff has to do with the ACE-deletion. Will have

to go read that stuff again.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Katrina

Your range of low sodium and high potassium is a classic sign of

underfunctioning adrenals, I also had this. Now I take a low dose

steroid it is corrected. It might well be due to ACE deletion but

you can do a lot to help the situation. If you have an HPA axis

problem this can cause adrenal insufficiency and the only way round

that is to supplement with a low dose steroid because no matter what

you do your adrenals don't get the message to make sufficient

cortisol for your body's need. I think it is very common with this

illness.

Thanks Pam,

Yeah, I know my adrenals are messed up. I don't know what to do about it

though. I tried the low dose cortisol a few years ago and it helped at first,

then made my adrenals even worse. I'm hoping they'll get sorted out when the

methylation gets going, but I don't know (with all the ACE deletion stuff and

everything). I guess we'll see. In the meantime, I wish I could just figure out

whether to take more or less sodium and potassium!

Thanks for your help,

Trina
