Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I would suggest seeing a GI doc - especially if Flagyl isn't working. Flagyl was my sons wonder drug before we were scoped by Dr. Krigsman. Since starting treatment for his GI issues - he sleeps through the night and acquisition rate in school and home has increased. It's been the best treatment to date. How long is your course of Flagyl? We do 10 days - perhaps you should suspend the Flagyl and see if he feels better??

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 The first time we did it once for 10 days in Dec 2006 - got great results that lasted for us for months. Then we were scoped in April 2007 and started with Pentasa & Zantac. We are now on it again for 10 days/month from March - May to see if we can help him even more since he seemed to have been going back to baseline as of this last December we know he's a Flagyl responder.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Valtrex causes massive yeast here. My son was on it for 4 months...we just stopped due to yeast that would not die. My son was on rotation of antifungals, no sugar or yeast feeders. It got so bad his face and mouth looked rotten (sorry, no better way to describe it). After being off Valtrex 4 days it is clearing up. And behavior from the yeast is subsiding too. That is the only thing I can say about it is Valtrex is most likely the reason. Good luck...thinking of you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 , I just add a kefir packet to a glass bottle full of clean water along w/some agave for the bacteria to feed on and set it on my counter for a couple of days. It's warm now so I didn't bother to heat the water. That's it. Then I refrigerated it. Dana RE: Flagyl not working...please HELP... Are you giving probiotics along with but away from the Flagyl. Our doc just gave us an rx for Flagyl yesterday (right now we have no yeast but no lactobacillus and plenty of bad bugs). She stressed the importance of probiotics. We are going to do rx strength VSL3 at night. Haven't started yet but that's the plan. We also recently started doing kefired water (just plain water, my kids are allergic to coconut) and their bellies, especially my youngest's who had a real buddha belly going for him, have flattened significantly. Hope this helps. Hang in there.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 That is the thing...he is sleeping through the night, there are gains cognitively, but the bellyt remains bloated, the stools were formed and toothpaste-ish for two days, but have gone mush again and are a very dark brown - though not green anymore...we are on it for two more days and then done. We are giving probiotics along with the RX and will up them as soon as the RX is done...I guess time will tell if this has helped or not. Our ped wants to test when he is through with this round to see if there are improvements...I wonder does the kefir water taste foul?

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 That is INSANE...wow. Did you get any gains from the valtrex...I honestly think it doesn't cause the yeast, but rather flushes it out, but perhaps not...ours is the only population with the yeast/valtrex issues-so so wierd. Well, it is back to BED and SCD...and a friend just told me to look into the GAPs diet protocol as well...maddening. How do we cope? Did your son improve without the valtrex board - were you able to get rid of all the yeast and bacteria? Di > > Valtrex causes massive yeast here.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I dont know the original topic on this kefir, so if I chime in wrong, pls just take it as FYI.. I did yck with custom probiotics and its a success, so now my son only drink yck with custom probiotic d-lactate free, as i found that the kefir starter has yeast in it, the culture starter didnt look very good (not milky white enough, not soda enough), and I havent use the essential duo but I found that it has some that I dont like in it. Anyway, but the transfer batch didnt work out, so only use for 1 batch... I havent figured out whats wrong yet. Since my fridge space is limited, i think its much better I use all fresh batch, not transfer batch... I like this yck with custom probiotics, i find it perfect result, very milky, sour, tart, tangy, seems very concentrated.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 My son made gains in the area of gross motor. I really didn't think he had any weaknesses in that area, but almost instantly he started riding bike w/o training wheels, riding the razor scooter the same way as his older brother. His language is still very choppy (does that make sense?). He can comment, request, & ask a question. He doesn't do well conversationally but he really tries. He loves his friends, but after " hi,---- how are you doing? " the next sentence is complete jibberish. So, he can't hold another child's interest for long. Dropping everything & concentrating on killing yeast. We are using lots of Activated charcoal to help w/ die off. I am also pushing the mag citrate to move it through. I love Valtrex and want him to continue, but I do not know when/if I will restart. We did retest titers last week on the last day of it so I should find out soon if they moved at all.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I spoke to our dan about it and he didn't recommend doing anything else until the yeast is under control. He did mention a few others but said Valtrex is really the best/strongest one . We tried Acyclovir a couple of years ago and the yeast was bad then too but it caused more GI yeast (or so it appeared) than thrush/facial yeast.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Di, I use my probiotics in exchange of the kefir starter. I use custom probitics, so I culture the young coconut using custom probiotics instead of kefir starter. I use 7 adult scoop. Everything is the same, heat up the coconut water up to 31-32C, then put in custom probiotics, mix well, then put it in stereoform and let it sit for 36-48 hours. all the same... I think you can also try with your own probiotics, as I feel better with the custom probiotics. No special starter, just use the probiotic blend, d-lactate free probiotics. I use it equivalent to the weight of the starter pack, I forgot, maybe around 5 grams? I just havent success with transfering, dont know whats wrong...

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Hi , What I meant by " success " is that it formed a good kefir, tart, tangy, sour with sweet taste a bit, milky white, all perfect. I tried before using veggie starter, but it didnt look and taste as good as the kefir starter. why i use custom probiotics? Bcos I'm not satisfy with the starter pack available. Kefir starter has strain of probiotics which similar to culturelle and it has MILK in it. My son get heavy bloating after a while (after 1-2 week). With the veggie starter its ok, didnt see anything (bad or good) but the kefir result formed is not as good as i wanted. I hvnt tried essential duo yet, I forgot, why I dont like it either. there is some content in it which make me confuse. I have to search my notes again. So, I decided to use custom probiotics to make the kefir, so its safer as I know it didnt contain any other contents. I have a strange opinion, that maybe I gave jason over 300 billion everyday but his poop is not good enough, maybe the probiotics didnt survive the stomach acid. So, if I use it in kefir. it takes down as FOOD, so maybe it will help better to survive the stomach condition. and hopefully it can help to reinstate the gut population back again slowly. I suspect that jason's gut cannot be populated back by the probiotics. I am a believer that probiotics is the most important part of the gut healing. But I havent figured out yet, whats the best way to reinstate the population back to the gut. I cant do cultured veggie as we as asian has different kind of way to eat. I have whacked jason with so high dose of probiotics but his bowel still not improve yet (still missing 1-2 days in a week). I am thinking about rotating the probiotics, but I havent made up my mind yet on what to do. If you worry about some traces of gluten and casein, why dont you use enzymes??? I always give high dose on enzyme, as I believe tht jason also had problems in digestion (lack of enzyme made in his body, not ony for gluten and casein, but for all), so I use enzyme to help him to digest food better so the nutrients from the food can be out of the food and absorbed by the gut. I dont think I can see any improvement just from yck, sorry, but its just too short to see it, and since i have so many things on my list to try, I cant wait tht long. so I decided, yck is a GOOD thing, must have , so just take it, with the hope it can do some good in there which we dont know and hopefully it will help in fixing some part of the broken machines. HOw to know its not good? Its hard to identify, I always see the COLOR (has to be milky white), SODA / TART (lots of soda, you can see it in the spoon or taste it), TASTE (tangy, sour with some sweetness). So when I transfer the batch with kefir starter, it formed the same result. But with the custom probiotics, the color is not good, taste different (very very sour), not so much soda, smell too acidic. So, I decided to put it in fridge, after few days, the milky part separated so I have 2 layers, water on top and white things bottom, and the water on top looks rather yellowish pinky, so i throw it away (approved for bad batch). I didnt find drinking kefir is that bad, it takes time to adjust. I always add xylitol to jason. I also mix it in the morning with Vitality green, so he has some smell and other taste to cover the simpleplain taste of kefir, I think (just my opinion) if you use juices that approved by BED (I like elderberry or cranberry), its pretty safe. NOT so much, just a bit. The juice I bought is from biota, and I gave the elderberry everyday, 30 ml. its good for immune system. I think if the juice is home made and its needed to cover the taste to get the good thing in, why not??? Make sure he drink SLOWLY as it has soda in it which can make my son gag up too. I drank Kefir every single day!! so now I have more regular bowel than i used to be. I havent read any paper from Goldberg, I;m not staying in US, any chance to get the paper and where? I always believe that autism is the illness, which means complications from GUT, VIRUS, BACTERIA, and then overload of metals inside the body, so the body is not functioning well. I listen to the BED CD special for autism, and I agree with Donna Gates. Brain is the part of the GUT. and bacteria play a VERY important role in all over the body. Thats why I target jason's with antifungal, antivirus, healing the gut. Detox is come as bypack along the way. I always told my friend who doesnt able to do the detox and complete biomedic (lack of money and knowlegde) to do the diet, heal the gut, use probiotics and basic supplements. with the hope, body can work well again and dump the bad things out, working it naturally. of course its not easy, but better than doing nothing, right? I believe jason has immune dysfunction, he always sick since 15 months. after OLE, he never sick for 6 months, until I get worry and I pray he get sick (simple cold or flu), and it happened 2 weeks ago. I believe if the child never get sick, its also not good, as they have immune overdrive (?).. My mom in law has severe allergy and hipotyroid (auto immune), so its in the gene!

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 can you give me more info on dr. krigsmans procedure and what did it find? what did he recomend for your son/daughter for teatment, did ins. pay for it and how much was the procedue. my son will be going soon and iam spooked about the whole thing thanks for your response.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 ...that post about Dr Krigsman ultimately said that what worked only worked temporarily, and what didn't...well, didn't. Stan does not like the gut drugs, and when I researched them...neither do I - big time...I would go with Goldberg's ssri stuff before I would go near the steroid treatments and other gut stuff that GI docs resort to. I think there is no quick fix for the gut stuff, and no long term health without lifestyle changes that go beyond gfcf - which simply eliminates -but I have yet to meet a kid that has been healed that route....they are on it forever and exist in a group vulnerable to colon cancers and other serious health issues...for $99 you can get the cd set of the Body Ecology conference, and if you have a yeasty bacteria kid as we do I really think the widsom of the scd and bed is our best hope. What good does it do to go through all this only to have our kids stop being autistic, per se, but not armed to make sure it NEVER happens to the next generation....it started in vitro in THIS house...and the shot injured him, true, but the vit and mineral deficiences and poor gut flora set him up for it...intestinal healing has to happen...and the gut docs and drugs can never offer you that. My dd can even eat a bit of gluten, sugar, does GREAT on raw milk...and she had issues, though less severe than her brother's of course....but diet changes, a run of diflucan and valtrex, and the fermented food and concepts of the SCD and BED totally and completely changed her life...and she WILL know what to eat so that she lives long, well, cancer free always, and never ever has to fear pregnancy or autism crap....pour your energy into that, not pursuing a Krigsman scope...to what end even if he comes back with your child's gut is a MESS....you cannot be on the gut drugs long term and their side effects are SERIOUS. All of this is just my opinion of course, each family must find their own way...but I ache for the kids I have met out there who are " recovered " but remain on special diets most of which include highly processed foods still and many products that the Weston PRice folks and BED and SCD say are actually bad for you, esp long term...and the kids still have issues, most of them...and the parents are worn out tired looking and also not eating that well. They NEED HBOT, Ozone, tons of supps and vits too bc they are a mess and look it, God Bless them all -exp since we are still in that camp ourselves, though getting better and looking better day by day, bit by bit...I know three mums struggling to recover their kids at this time who have or have had breast cancer in the last two years. The father who recovered his kids and started BrainChild...died of pancreatic cancer very recently....yes our kids are sick, but they came out of OUR bodies and it is not just the vaccines. The absence of enough folic acid is a cause of spina bifida, proven, accepted, mainstream med belief...not alternative in the least...the deficiencies we had and HAVE in our gut flora, our amounts of vitamin A and D and other things....are the root cause of what is happening to all these kids. My son staring at a wall with an injured brain and gut is just ME in thirty or forty years with my alzheimers, Lou Gehrig's disease or cancer...the whole family needs to be examined and the root cause of what is presenting as autism addressed and healed.

I swear to you that Stan is right about this...there are autoimmune issues and signs of poor health, esp gut health in ALL the families of those who have kids who present on the spectrum, without exception....I have never ever seen a vibrantly healthy, whole foods, mostly raw foods( at least 50% of the diet, non caffien drinking, limited sugar intake, adequate amounts of excercise...family walk through the doors of any of these clinics, doctors offices, pharmacies, and therpay centers...EVER.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 I have to agree with Diane about Dr. Krigsman. My nt daughter was diagnosed with probable ibs. We didn't do a scope. It turns out that she has diptheria in her gut from her 1st year dpt test. She's 22 now. So in our case it was bacteria that mirrored ibs symptoms. We're seeing a homeopath who does bioset to treat the diptheria. My dd is also seeing the homeopath and this has helped her alot. We also do scd and bed and started difflican also. And until we went to the homeopath I didn't realize how a mess I am.
