now with virtually no symptoms and not being treated. However, I am 35

and still have symptoms if I try to eat.

Steph,

What are the side effects? 's GI mentioned prednisone for 8 weeks

then cromolyn, if the tests show EE. How old were your kids when they got G

tubes? will freak out if he needs a tube at his age espically along

with everyting else he has going on. dosn't really have symptoms, but

his endos are getting worse.

Cathy,

great but awful side effects.

Now, our kids are responding to complete elemental diet via GTubes.

My kids on tubes are 11, 7, 4 and 2. Weve all gotten our tubes this

year.

If the prednisone works and your son does have EE, you should DEFINITELY

try Flonase therapy. It has been PROVEN to work in a couple of studies.

Cromolyn has had some help for EG but NOT for EE.

You may also want to consider an elemental diet.

Steph:

Can you please point me in the direction of the studies re: flonase. Our

ped G.I. has had us on the pred. and wasn't familiar with the use of

flonase. Right now we are only on cromolyn, but I think we are kind of

borderline and I now we may get back on. Thanks.

Pete,

Cant believe any peds GI is not aware of the studies wtih Flonase. Do

you have a FAX #? Also the hospital in Colorado (Jewish CHildrens) has

tons of EE kids and ANY doc there can clue your doc in on this

treatment.

Why when you are eating this woe and then go off do you gain weight so

quickly. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me, because normally you would

not gain 2-3 lbs. in just a few days.

<< Do any of you feel bloated on this diet? I am losing but my stomach feels

bloated...Thanks >>

Sorry, not much time but I would suggest that you read the section on yeast

infections in Dr. Atkins book. It may be helpful. I had yeast problems(in my

intestines) this time around and had to use a product from GNC to kill it. I

am just starting to feel better. Teena

<< Teena what product from gnc for yeast.....acidopholous?....Jean >>

It is called Yeast Fighter by Twin Lab. It has 75 capsules for about 14.00.

It has garlic, caprylic acid, acidophilus, and psyllium husks. These are all

suggested by Dr. Atkins to fight yeast. If you have an infection it may take

a bit to get rid of it. Avoid cheese and the other foods that Atkins

suggests. I am right now eating a majority of meats, hardly any cheese and

some veggies. I am drinking lots of water and it is helping me feel better.

Hope you feel better! Teena

Thats what they say!!!!!!!!!! On another one of my list that I am on, when

someone eats something that they shouldn't, they are usually told to flush it

out with lots of extra water, and they say it helps. Also, they say the water

is necessary to help keep your liver and kidneys from having to work so hard.
