Guest guest Posted September 28, 2001 Report Share Posted September 28, 2001 Hey Joan...sorry for the delay in getting back to you...hope to get everything in onthis post...life has just plain ole been crazy round here! Thanks appreciate the help- I got all excited when the dietition called again but after we spoke still no info from her yet. you gotta find whats " just right " for you. what works for one might not work for the other. Then she needs more food -ate 3x this pre diet & always stayed at the 25th percentile & she is starving. Basically I think the lowest ratio that gives you seizrues control is what is best. She is seizure free now but when we wean the drugs that could all change. I think generally they start the older kids on lower ratios and the smaller kids on higher ratios...wellthats what my dietitian said she does. Which center do you go to I will pass this info along to my dietition as she wants to start Jen at a higher ratio. She has agreed to 3:5 which isn't too bad but it is not what she usulally does. I wonder about her liquids??? How much should she be drinking? i can't figure that out. I think you should add digestive enzymes to help her absorb what she is getting...these made a HUGE difference in Bry. How ? so I can tell my dietition. The dietition did not want to but I would like to especially after reading Dettes post. As far as protien I do agree that she is not getting enough. That is what she is craving. I would acutually like to raise it way up like double it. That would still be a decrease for her. I was curious if you checked into a yeast issue for Jen?? or did I ask this already?? The Dan dietition wanted to put her on cultures but we had once gone to a holistic dentist who tested her saliva & said there wasn't much yeast. I had allot though which didn't surprise me.
