//EFA regression//Coromega

[Guest guest]

:

Thank you so much for your straight answer! I appreciate it, and I feel much

more comfortable about the concept.

I *know* that EFAs were somehow involved in Phoebe's seizure disorder. She

had her first seizure about a week after I stopped breast feeding her. (Call

it mother's intuition...)

The other link is that she, and other kids with LKS or CSWS, respond

favorably to anti-inflammatory drugs (steroids.) I'm thinking the fish oil

is anti-inflammatory without the really gnarly side effects of Prednisone.

The only fear I STILL have is the GLA part. I fear a return of the seizures

more than anything on this Earth (we are currently 3 years seizure free!.)

did mention Coromega...anyone have success with that?

Best,
