Guest guest Posted April 30, 2003 Report Share Posted April 30, 2003 Chicki, welcome. If you haven't bought a basic liver reference book yet, two that we find useful are Dr. Palmer's Guide to Liver Disease and a similar one by Dr. G. Worman. Both can be found on Amazon.com, if you don't see them in your local bookstore. Dr. Palmer's book also can be bought on her website, liverdisease.com. They are well under $20. Debby, I got my Hepatitis A and B vaccines at my GI's office (Kaiser.) They give them to ALL patients with AIH. , I spoke briefly today to a former nurse who supervises marine mammal activities here. She tells me to not get anywhere near a sea mammal at this stage, due to infection possibilities. So, I'll be dropping out of the marine mammal rescue group. I can still do seal docent work, as that involves only watching. Harper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 30, 2003 Report Share Posted April 30, 2003 Oh Harper....I am so very sad for you that you will have to drop out of the marine mammal rescue....but happy that you can still count the seals. You have really been looking forward to that. The thing that really bothers me the most about this whole liver disease is that we go around trying to protect ourselves but no one seems to care! Guess I am just frustrated after my visit. I try to do the right thing.....and it doesn't seem to come out right. Oh well......maybe I should just live on the edge! At least I will die happy!!!

Hi Laurie --I was wondering if you have taken him off artificial ingredients and preservatives?? There could possibly be another common ingredient in the coconut products. There is also the chance that organic may be the only kind of coconut your child can tolerate. I know one boy who gets blisters in his mouth from regular pears but is OK with organic pears. My oldest son can have organic peanut butter but cannot tolerate regular peanut butter. My son can also only eat " naturally opened " pistachios (I wonder what unnaturally opened pistachios is ?????????). Another girl had trouble with tomatoes ALL her life. As a college student she went to Italy and ate tomatoes and had NO trouble. She has found that she can tolerate organic " picked when ripe " tomatoes just fine. Just points to ponder and other reasons for reactions to rule out. Laurie Curry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what part of the country you live in--I live in VA and there are a few good Drs. who do tests for cell permiability and the like. I am wondering if some of these tests or the heavey metals test (hair or blood) could give you clues to why he is not gaining weight??
