Re: Melatonin and goldenseal was Help - Frustrated

[Guest guest]

Hi ..I found this very interesting as my son has inflammation

problems and the only things I have found to help his apparent pain

is advil and mucinex....My son also does not have sleep issues and I

did give him melatonin over a year ago and it made him hyper and

awake during the night...do you know why this would be..I think it

was 1mg but not sure...he has major issues with OCD and repetive

behaviors right now...would this help him...he is an adult..Eileen

Also the goldenseal sounds like something that may help his

irritability altho valtrex is doing a good job on that right now

too..Do you all use drops or does it matter...I am using candex right

now for yeast but his doctor wants him on diflucan...We have had

major die off with rx antifungals in the past and I am so afraid to

get all that aggression back again...my other thought was that the

aggression was coming from bad bacteria as was stated in the post

about goldenseal...

The goldenseal helped alot with our daughter being irritable and overly emotional. We saw results very quickly ..within 48 hrs. I would give it a try...we used the drops (warning: they taste awful) If you are on Valtrex I would suggest you consider adding the Diflucan to help with yeast. It is the only thing that helps control it with our daughter. We've tried other approaches only to have the yeast return. As for the die-off. - have you tried using charcoal capsules to help?? They worked well when my daughter was going through die-off. Good luck!!ebrischoux wrote: Hi ..I found this very interesting as my son has inflammation problems and the only things I have found to help his apparent pain is advil and mucinex....My son also does not have sleep issues and I did give him melatonin over a year ago and it made him hyper and awake during the night...do you know why this would be..I think it was 1mg but not sure...he has major issues with OCD and repetive behaviors right now...would this help him...he is an adult..EileenAlso the goldenseal sounds like something that may help his irritability altho valtrex is doing a good job on that right now too..Do you all use drops or does it matter...I am using candex right now for yeast but his doctor wants him on diflucan...We have had major die off with rx antifungals in the past and I am so afraid to get all that aggression back

Thanks Angie..I cant really use the charcoal as he is on other time

released medications right now..does anyone know of anything else...I

belive epsom salts baths are also supposed to help with die

off...anything else? Thinking out loud here too...I know when we

were going to a DAN he knew my son was on these other meds and

suggested to use the charcoal too for die off...so not really sure

how the charcoal would react with meds...would it wipe everything

out? Eileen

I'm not completely sure but it's my understanding that the charcoal should not cause any problems with any of the other meds. It's just absorbing the bad stuff. (real scientific response - I know) Epsom salt baths are good. We do those too almost every night. If you haven't tried them - give them I try too. ebrischoux wrote: Thanks Angie..I cant really use the charcoal as he is on other time released medications right now..does anyone know of anything else...I belive epsom salts baths are

How my DAN explained it to me is that charcoal acts as a sponge and will absorb anything in its path - it can't distinguish between a med, supplement, etc. You need to give it about 2 hours away from other substances.

This is what I thought also...if the other meds were not time

released it would not be a problem but they are so I will have to

comeup with another solution...Thanks Eileen
