Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Thank you so much, . I also agree that we need to take it slowly. Last week, the doctor seemed great. This week, my husband came with me, and it seemed like the doctor was trying to show off or something. I know from experience that my son can't tolerate regular Super-Nu- Thera and DMG makes him hyper (we tried it on our own). I've also heard that many kids can't tolerate CLO, but when I mentioned this to the doctor, he said, " No, I've never heard of a single child that can't tolerate CLO " . He also saw no problem in giving everything at once and said " I won't see you for another month. A month can mean a world of difference in these kid's lives " . I agree, but I don't want to overload my son when we haven't even gotten these tests back. Your email really reassured me, as I was starting to doubt myself. I think that maybe we'll start with the pro-biotic or culturelle first and then slowly take it from there. I'm going to be prepared the next time I go in and not let that doctor bully me into something I don't feel comfortable with. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 , If you start to give the good bacteria before you do your stool sample- it is not going to tell if there was any in the gut to begin with. Although sometime we test and do stay on things like the good bacteria to see if it is making it to where it is suppose and is still alive and helping. Your doctor is going for a baseline on the good bacteria I beleave the lab likes to now if supplements have been given or not for there report- get copies of all the test you run they make great reading- My son has tried Klair, Houston and Kirkmans- We use the Kirkmans your doctor wants you to try and my son can not use the others. There are going to be supplements your son will not tolerate - with mine it was Vit. B6 ( now he can) This is one really hard thing about treating our kids it is never the same with 2 because there are so many issues. You wanted a paper my favorite in " Understanding Autism " by Jepson MD you will find it at the Children's Biomedical Center of Utah inc web page (cbcutah.com) My 2 Cents Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he has not seen very many kids, or parents do not report bad reactions to him. He also saw no problem in giving everything at > once and said " I won't see you for another month.

Yep, it can take much less time than that to totally mess up your child, then you have to remove everything, wait until he settles down [which can take a while], then start all over. How much time has he lost then? > Your email really reassured me, as I was starting to doubt myself. > I think that maybe we'll start with the pro-biotic or culturelle > first and then slowly take it from there.
