Re: Amita...regarding comprehensive metabolic panel

[Guest guest]

Amita,

Yes, Jody brings up a good point. I just took my son to a doctor and asked

about his high protein intake. The doctor explained about the wide range

between BUN and creatinine in marathon runners. He explained either that one or

both of those readings could change with hydration. I am to keep my son well

hydrated.

Please note, with regard to recent protein discussions, I am not saying that

being well hydrated is all one needs when consuming more protein, it is just one

important thing.

Your DAN! doctor is wise to want to clean up the gut first before prolonged and

aggressive chelation. I have a friend who did start a special diet and help the

yeast beforehand, and her son is virtually recovered. Whereas, I did not start

a special diet as early, or clean up the gut enough before chelation, or combat

the yeast. This was a mistake.

May you have success helping your son with this issue.

Teri

Re: regarding comprehensive metabolic panel

Amita,

Is there any chance your son was dehyrdated, even slightly, when the

blood was drawn?

If I remember right, the low creatinine can be from dehydration.
