Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Dear Sueellen, We just went to Hopkins to initate the diet on Jan. 6th. This is my third try at posting so lets see how I do. You start the fasting on the tues before admit after dinner. The girk I shared a room with her daughter got 5 bottles a day. That depends on ratio and your childs size. My daughter is 4 so I didn't pay to much attention to the formula stuff. Hopkins recommends ordering your extracts from Bickford () Make sure you aask for keto friendly extracts. We live in Eastern PA and it only took 4 days to get. We went to Hopkins for our eval and we had already mer our deductible for the year so we didn't have to pay the $150.00. They just billed our insurance. We did have to pay the $500.00 dietician fee, which we did not know about until the phone call. It was a shock, but it's worth it. We have Blue cross also and I will be submitting it this week. They are very helppful will help with letters if you have to appeal. You will see when you get there. They are verry nive. The nurses are great. The child life person is great! She will come and play with your child so you can get a break. We brought everything that I could think of that would make it feel like home while we werre there. They have a wagon to help get it up to your room. We stayed at the Tremont while there. They have a shuttle that will take you to the hospital if yo need it. You can email me at dmcherry@... if you have any questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
