Re: Slightly OT: IgG, IgA, IgE

anymore...

pulled out all the test result done in Sep/Oct. and one was the GSDL

Food Antibody Assessment for 90 foods. Both of my dss showed VL in

IgG (only--no IgE) for dairies, some grains (including rice but not

wheat or corn), veggies. Their IgA showed some antibodies to gluten

and casein (Dr. Megson wrote, " The urinary polypeptides test shows

elevated IAG level. Recommend gluten and casein free... " ).

I would pay a lot more attention to the IgG results.

The IgA results do suggest a trial GFCF diet. I would not go insane

doing this, if you want to try it, do so for a month. Most kids

respond within that time.

> How would any of you read it? Rotation or elimination or enzymes?

These are also good options. Rotation is about as painful as GFCF,

but if you prefer to do that it is fine. If so, let me know and I'll

discuss rotating supplements. I don't remember if I did that before

on list or not.

> What would you do with 'VL' as a marker for an IgG response to a

food?

Please explain all the choices of markers so I have a better idea what

VL means.

IgG to more than 5 foods indicates the correct treatment is one for

healing up leaky gut syndrome, not simply avoiding allergens while he

sensitizes to everything else in the grocery store. Glutamine between

meals, arginine and lysine with meals, gelatin 1 tsp with digestive

enzymes with meals, lots of vitamin A.

>Is there an IgA level at which you should be concerned and a level

when not?

It depends on his total IgA as well as the results to gluten and

casomorphin.

I appreciate your time. All of our 'health care' folks are completely

uneducated here. I just left the dentist/ortho office and was informed that the

composite filling my 7ds was perfectly safe but so are amalgam fillings

(AAAARRRGGHHH!) and that all the concern was unwarrented. I wanted to poke his

eye out...same office who let my 7ds swallow all the floride treatment they gave

him and was surprised when he vomited all over the cafeteria 3 hrs later. Peds

dr is 'concerned about giving my dss enzymes that their bodies already make (no,

they don't) since we don't know what the long term ramifications are' but

discounts every study on thermerisol and autism relationship as well as heavy

metals, food additives, hydrogenated oils/trans fats but, 'hey, let's talk about

Ritalin.' I have no choices here except to avoid them all together. Would be

interested in check 7ds's aminos but getting someone to order the tests may be

tough.

Apologize for the rant. Answers to your questions...

I don't know. I can search the archives. Would make sense to do that to...I

find myself doing that as I find reactions that didn't occur before.

VL, +1, +2, +3...8ds 21 VLs and 1 +2 for sunflower seeds | 7ds 10 VLs, 2 +1

(pinto and string bean), and 1 +2 (kidney bean)

Am I taking the easy way out by giving an all encompassing amino mix? Seems

like but I don't want to miss any either.

I only have Total IgE 2.86/8ds and 57.06/7ds. I will email Dr. Megson for IgA

if she will give it.

Once again, thanks. Deeply.

Do exactly that.

Get all your friends to do it too.

As long as you keep going to them, they keep making money for not

knowing what they are doing. Stop being their token to make money off

your insurance plan!
