Guest guest Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Hi Jenn, where in Canada are you? I am in , BC. How is the diet working for your child? Are you guys seizure free? Do you have a good keto team? We have often thought of going out of province sometimes. Satnam, mom to Kristan, 22 months Keto kid since August 2003, and currently weaning > I assume you are in the US - can you order it thru a canadian prescrip site? No idea how those work as I am in canada and very thankfully I can get it covered here (same strength you are using - and it is about $238 for one month's supply) Hope you can find the info you are looking for. This made a great difference for my son and we see seizures return if we miss it. > > Jenn > Carnitene , Looking for it help. > > > > My son was prescribed, Carnitene the insurance wont cover it ,even > had the Doctor call and they want do it.Out of pocket it is $150.00, > for a months supply.Does anybody know where you can order this drug > cheaper, looked on the net couldn,t find the prescription > strength.Cade needs the 330mg tabs.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 We're on the praries The diet is working very good for . He is not totally seizure free but I suspect that the break thru seizures he had (two in one morning but that was it for the last 8 days) was due to a food we gave him. Challenging again today (not that I wanted to but huby gave it to him without thinking bah!) Oh well at least this way we will know and there is no school tomorrow to miss if he has a bad nite I dont know that we actually have a 'keto team' we have a neuro and a dietician - both of which I dont have much contact with. We see the neuro every 6 months or so and the dietician I usually email when I have a question but for the most part I am on my own with the diet (and I like it that way) If you plan on traveling this way, let me know. Would be great to meet other parents of children with epilepsy, esp those on (or who have been on) the diet. Jenn mom to Mike - keto kid for 3 years, almost seizure free and almost med free (just a little clonaz hanging on) Re: Carnitene , Looking for it help. - Jenn in Canada Hi Jenn, where in Canada are you?

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 Hi Jenn, that's great you are having great results with the diet for your son. How old is ? We are currently weaning my daughter from the diet as we have done every fine tuning we can think of. She has good and bad days on the diet. But, if we find she was better off on the diet, then we will put her back on it. I will definitely look you up if we ever come out your way. Hope things are better now with .
