Re: Day 30 both kids sick

[Guest guest]

I'm not sure it's unusual for healing regression to last. Most of our

physical symptoms are gone, but we still have a gunky nose, and some

behavioral things like teeth grinding and being more

emotional/tantrummy. We're currently on Day 28.

Hi - Preston just went thru the same thing. His fever reached 103. Got

very nervous

for a bit. But he plugged thru it and has progressed quite well. The runny

nose, fever,

cough lasted for about 1 1/2 week. I kept him on decongestant and expectorant.

You

guys are a few days ahead of us on starting Valtrex.

Hey - me again. Preston went to a slight diarreha again too. Was very sad

thinking the

good stools were history but they went back to normal again. Just our

experience.

It's unusual, but it does happen. I tend to believe the more involved kids will

take a bit

longer to get over the healing-regression.

Hang in there . I wouldn't give up just yet. It's still early in the big

scheme of things.

Hi Stan:

Rubén's now on day 29/30, and we're STILL seeing reoccuring rash

stuff. He's got red rashes in his kneepits (which we've seen before,

even pre-Valtrex), and a bumpy one on his tummy.

Couple of questions for you, Stan:

1. " I tend to believe the more involved kids will... " I'm afraid I'm a

bit confused as to what you mean by " involved. " It's not clear from

your message.

2. You've mentioned that you tend to see a lot of kids " leaking " eggs.

I'm curious about this. How exactly is this seen? Physical symptoms?

Behavior? Testing? I'm curious as to how you reached this determination.

We removed the buckwheat and starches per your suggestion and saw

great stools as a result (thanks!). He does still eat a lot of eggs,

though. Lately, we occasionally have " halfsie " stools, with half being

brown and solid, and the other half being green and mushy. The dark

circles under his eyes do a similar jeckyll & hyde act - sometimes

they're barely noticeable; other times it looks like he's been in a fight.

It's GOT to be something he's ingesting...

He's had an IGG test, and we do occasionally feed him 1+ foods just to

get in a little variety (there are fewer than 20 available " allowed "

foods he can currently have without breaking out into some kind of

rash). We worry about exacerbating allergic reactions even more if we

further limit the number of foods he can eat.

Any suggestions?
