Re:Immune Panel and Natural Killer Cell Activity: What do the numbers

[Guest guest]

Good evening, Heidi,

So having these high numbers are good? We just got blood work that showed my

son's ASO and DNASE B antibody are elevated. For the past year, these two items

were never elevated.

As such, we think my son has Strep B. Possibly due to the VSL#3 strep strain.

Don't know for certain so we are substituting Klaire Labs DETOX probiotic for

VSL #3.

I am so out in left field with this test. I don't know how to interpret. I

have the doctor's appointment to review the test in a week. (The staff gave me

a copy prior to the appointment so I can do some homework. ;^ )

Thank you again,

Jerry
