Claire gets a similar rash from olive oil, so we use alternative oils now

and she is fine. Has your son been having any foods that he didn't have

prior to starting the diet? Otherwise, could he be showing signs of med

toxicity? Are there any other symptoms?

Hi Viola

I haven't read for a few days but just spotted your post. My son, Ben, developed

a

rash around his mouth when his ketones were too high over a few days. It soon

disappeared when when we got the ketones down though. Our dietician didn't have

an explanation for it. Is it a rash or a flushed look?

excessive bruising can also be very serious side affect from the diet, we

had a complete blood work up done on Stella's platelette's and their

functioning. This is especially serious when they are due for surgery, I

have a great and the only study done on the keto diet and blood problems. ie

bruising, excessive bleeding, and slow clotting, it's related to surgery

kids (of any kind) but the diet can be harmful and serious for a few kids.

worth checking into.

-mom to Stella, 5years old, started keto diet May 10th 2004 still

waiting to be seizure free. Also on Lamictal, epam and Diamox. Anisa

is almost 10 and a happy healthy girl.

I hadn't heard of that. Can you give me a reference for the study?

I think that the diet can affect the side effects of the medications and

it might be associated with that if you are still on meds.

It also can be caused by insufficient vitamins and minerals if they

aren't supplemented sufficiently while on the diet. It is very important

to get a really good supplement.

Bill if you have a fax, i'd be happy to fax you the study, it's a few pages,

so I don't wan to retype it. I received it from DR. Mathews at childrens

hospital in seattle wa, she is a hematologist, all kids on the diet who are

due for surgery must see a hematology doc and get their blood checked before

surgery. I think there a few kids whose monthly blood labs would have

already given a red flag if they have platelette malfunctioning problems,

that's the premise for this study.

I also read about abnormal bleeding as side effect of ketogenic

diet.This bleeding was not associated with meds.I've read it in a

new book about ketogenic diet ( 2004 release)

MY nutritionist mentioned something about rashes the other day! It can be due to

a deficit of some vitamin/mineral....can't remember because Hannah's rash left

the next day. Do I need to make a phone call for you?
