Interpretation on the lab report said: " Increase in HPHPA, a metabolite of tyrosine produced by Clostridia species including C. difficle which may be important organisms in causing diarrhea; I suspect that these compounds may have behavioral and/or neurological effects as well. " She only prescribed Nystatin, supplements, and yeast free diet. Elaine wrote that Flagyl was hard on the system and to try it only after all else failed? I assumed our doc wanted to hold off for a good reason. Should I bring this to her attention right away? Diapers >are volumous, mushy and smelly (poor guy). Since his behaviours are improving it may be die-off especially if he is on Nystatin now (?) I'd let the doctor know, just to get her input. Let me know if there's no change in the smelly diapers. Did you try the epsom salt baths to see if that helped. Sheila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
