Guest guest Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 recently mentioned PANDAS to me, a condition that appears often after an onset of strep throat. You may want to research PANDAS and/or talk to your ped. about it. During or after a bout with strep, kids can exhibit unusuall and/or bizzare behaviors, often OCD type. If your ped. won't address it, do you have a psychologist you can consult? Ann > Hello everyone, and Happy New Year! > > I desperately need help with my 9 year old son.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 Hi , Could it be possible that your son has yeast? If you aren't giving him probiotics, you may want to consider this. My older son used to smear his poo when he was younger (in hindsight I see he had yeast from being on one antibotic after another). My younger son drooled and spit (let it just drip out of his mouth) this past summer. I didn't put it together until reading your post, but after starting probiotics my younger son did stop drooling-and he was loaded with yeast because during die-off he had the little pimples on his skin. I don't know if this is the same for your son's case, but I thought I would mention it, just in case it could help him. > Hello everyone, and Happy New Year! > > I desperately need help with my 9 year old son.

Smearing feces and accidents would be yeast for my son. He can also have accidents and drooling from supplements or foods he doesn't tolerate. Drooling was a big problem before we went GFCF when it totally went away. We now are no longer GFCF using Houston enzymes and it has not returned.
