And then to get the lab results back... ugh! Here are some natural things that were suggested by a mom on a different board: * OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT - BY THE PAPERBACK BOOK " OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT " by Dr. Morton amazon.com 3mls x 3 times per day with plenty fluids and vitamin C. * VIRGIN COCONUT OIL - book by Bruce Fife 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon per day (child) * Grapefruit Seed Extract ( some bugs and bacteria) * LAURICIDIN * ORGANIC GARLIC Virus's and bacteria-- Virgin coconut oil & Olive Leaf extract I am undecided as to doing the antibiotic injection at this point-- the illness was a few weeks ago. The info on the net is conflicting-- some say do the antibio and some say don't bother. I just don't know what to think and am hoping to draw on the experiences of the parents on these boards to help me make a decision.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 , I just got off the phone with one of my daughters DAN doctors. She has been running a fever all day. He is not close by so told me if it turns out to be strep ask for an antibiotic injection! I have been trying to figure out what could possibly help that is natural just in case a local doctor refuses! I hope your son is ok and better quickly.

We have an appt to see his doc on Weds a.m.-- so what type of antibio should I request-- prefer to go with an injection vs. gut... PLEASE post or email me if you have info on this!

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 , what exactly was the test? did they draw blodd foe the antibodies or did they do a throat swab and then put antibodies on the smear of the swab? The latter is a rapid test for detecting strep, they use antibodies from many sources that bind with strep for the ability to test if strep is present, that has a totally different meaning than if Ethans own blood had antibodies (ASO usually) circulating against strep. A positive ASO titer means that Ethan has been exposed to strep and the body is trying to fight it. Unfortunately the timing of when the exposure took place is not an exact science. If someone had PANDAS, they would have an elevated blood anti-strep antibody level and probablely a negative throat swab- If you son is well with a positive blood test he probablely doesn't need any antibiotics and of course if the swab was positive there are non-antibiotic alternatives as Sheri pointed out-- In Autism- Mercury , " merrywbee <maryandphilip@a...> " <maryandphilip@a...> wrote: > Hi All-- Ethan's lab report came back and he tested positive for > strep antibodies... so now what?

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 My opinion: Step can lead to an extremely dangerous condition. If not treated on time it can lead to heart problems later in life and could ultimatly result in heart failure. When ever my son tested positive for strep we had it treated with an aitbiotic injection because it is very difficult to get him to voluntarily take his medicine. I also think that an injection might be easier on his gut. We always followed with probiotic supplementation imediately afterward.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 We also just treated strep with a penicillin injection with no bad response (except the pain from the injection). We are constantly fighting yeast issues. I did not see any flare of gut issues afterwards. I was always told that strep could lead to serious complications if left untreated. > > Hi All-- Ethan's lab report came back and he tested positive for > > strep antibodies... so now what? Ack!
