Ammonia (was : Re: X post: reflux)

August 22, 2010

Limin,

What were your son's blood ammonia levels(when it was high) and now(when its

normal)?

My kid has 29 in Blood, I am not confident how less is really less and not a

matter to worry...

Thanks,

Sasmita

several things (viracin, lots of probiotics, ACV lemonade in between meals,

bi-carb electrolyte water) to try to eliminate my DS's reflux. He's been strict

SCD since 1.8 years, we had this problem gone, but an MD prescribed him

AMBROTOSE, (8 molecule sugar from different gums) I told him I didn't think that

was something for him since it is not a monosaccharyde !!!! He insisted " I have

been doing this for 30 years and now you know better than me?? " (Typical,uh?) I

cracked under his persistence and gave it to my kid for 6 days....enough to turn

his GI back several months...he has now this bad reflux that l have no been able

to stop, he has even had a few diarreic BMs, which I had not seen in months. I

believe the polysaccharide caused a yeast flare, and have been handling it as

such too (Candex, biotin, viracin) but now I just don't seem to get the 2

together, this has gone out of hand.

advance for your feedback. It is terrible to see him expelling food/gastric

acid so many times a day, I am so mad at myself for succumbing to some " expert

advice " again and it coming from an MD, causing again a health issue to my

child, as if I didn't have enough...aagghhh!!!!
