Funny, my son has never done well with much calcium before either.

Maybe once I get this B12 thing under control I will try adding

that. Natasa, I know you are the resident calcium expert. Is that

a bad idea?

Anne,

I know that this time when I add back

in Calcium it will be citrate or marine coral cal separate from D to start. I

know Natasa was hoping that the LDN would help the calcium channels but I’m

not sure how that’s going. Let us know if you are able to reintroduce

it. Good luck,

Anne, I don't know that one, we haven't tried supplementing again since

that original bad reaction. Also, that first episode made me 'revisit'

our son's lab test results, which show calcium within range, which made

me question why on earth I wanted to supplement it in the first place...

it is not neuroprotective or has any other benefits that our kids might

need extra help with, like eg magnesium (which btw actually protects

agains calcium neurotoxicity!!) so I am still puzzled as to why should

the kids with normal ranges have to supplement it at all...

Alison, are you going to give it with meals in citrate form, as per

LOD/ Owens recommendations? Were your son's levels originally low?

Good luck and keep us posted!

Maurine, glad to hear the chewing stopped!!!

Natasa,

My son's calcium levels have always been in range too, despite the

fact that we have never supplemented him much and he has not gotten

much from his diet in a while. That gives me cause for concern.

Where it is coming from? Probably the bones.... Not good.

Ditto here. My son has always been on the low end but always within

range. Again we do not have to supplement much - I give 200 mg a day

plus the 30% he gets from the milk substitutes (rice milk and

Dairyfree). On the other hand he depletes magnesium a lot faster, I

give him maybe 4-5 times that. Shows up as deficient on the EAV. By

the way Yasko says calcium is an excitotoxin so if your glutamate is

high you should avoid it, get it from natural sourcers such as

nettle and chammomile. That stopped me from worrying about it,

temporarily.

Thanks for the tip about citrate. Also I did not know that B-12

deficiency manifested in the red tipped tongue and sides, good to

know.

Natasa,

     I haven’t started yet.  I just

made the appointment to start TD-DMSA next Wednesday so I’m not rocking

any boats at the moment.  CJ’s calcium was low normal so I wasn’t

in dire straights to retry.  But with chelation I will have to watch it.  Glad

to know about the magnesium.  I have been meaning to increase the baths. 

Maurine,

     I’m so glad you found the shirt

chewing culprit.  Maybe after some more time on the OLE you will see some

changes in processing abilities.  -

That’s really interesting about the

taurine.  The day CJ got his nose bleed the only thing I did was add L-lysine. 

I threw it away immediately.  -
