Guest guest Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 Thank you for your post . No, Isabella is not on sulfasalazine or any other GI med but Ultrase enzymes. We did stop her epsom salt baths a while back (possibly around seizure time but I don't recall exactly) because they contained 15ppm of lead and she has a lot of lead in her blood so I was concerned that the salts were the problem (house is clean). She had been taking daily epsom salt baths since she was 9 months old (now is 3.7 yo). Her EEG showed 3 atypical absence seizures in 45 minutes and her dr believes she is seizing all day long. At 18 mos old she had a normal EEG. She is a herpes kid - had 10 outbreaks in 6 months which caused stroke- like episodes (she is a mito kid too). Micel A, lauricidin and L- Lysine seem to keep the outbreaks from happening. Her serine and glycine are high. Histimine and A-amino-N-butyric are low and B-alanine is zero. All other aminos are normal and have repeatedly been normal over the course of her life. Her minerals are all low. Copper and zinc are the lowest with magnesium being the 3rd lowest. She is dumping nickel (red), lead (cautionary) and a trace mercury. She is gaining more words every day. The dr wants her on anti-seizure meds right away. I want to avoid meds at all costs. If you have any ideas, I would appreciate it. Thanks, Libby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
