GOING NUTS ABOUT POOS RIGHT NOW

June 29, 2009

Hi, everyone! Feeling a big mix of frustrations right now, as having looked at

'school work, sent home over the weekend, I see little progress between it

and his work of 3 years ago.

Fine motor and the executive function that helped his written work are at a

stage no further on than then, if in fact they are even up to that pst level.

HOWEVER, it has to be sdaid that at that time he was having severe OCD

behaviours, asking to swallow constantly etc, and that is now much reduced. We

got rid of it completely with a rotation of herbs, and stopping his MB12

completely [shots had hugely improved fine motor/handwriting].

I have been using the same herbs and adding in others, in order to try and

eradicate the OCD once more, but so far to no avail, although as mentioned

already, its far less than previously was the case. He is happier all round,

despite having hit puberty.

Also, while the reintroduction of occasional potatoes, about 3 years ago, seemed

to have little effect on behaviour at that time, I do still wonder if it was a

wise move to stop being strict scd.

Stopping his use of the scd yogurt had a swift leap forward in his auditory

processing part of Fast-Forword programme. However, he had been doing well in

terms of progress of speech and written language while using the yogurt.

As far as probiotics goes, we use CP1 without d-lactate, as this once

skyrocketed in the past. Also Bifidus from Biotics Research and sacro-b from

time to time. HOWEVER, it seems that very rarely are his poos quite right. They

can look pretty firm when I first go and peak, then he asks for 5 more minutes

or so and continues to produce just mush at the end, most days. Colour can be

okay, mid to dark brown, but also sometimes the diameter seems small and they

can be light in colour - possibly bacteria there. Tonight was darkish but solid

followed by mush again. I am trying not to blame potatoes he ate yesterday, but

will need to try and keep a clear food diary again to see if this is a pattern.

I feel a bit of a flop not keeping track of what foods and herbs he has been

having so I can track things..... after 10 years of this you would think I would

know better.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
