Re: bum rash & cold

[Guest guest]

Yep sounds like yeast, you may get away with some zinc oxide cream after

washing, keeping up with the zymes and keeping your fingers crossed. Try that

first, if it doesn;t clear after a few weeks, you can try something else. I'm

much less keen on peeps goignn gung ho with antifungals than I used to be,

trying too hard puts you in a worse place than when you started.

Good luck

and

he's had a red rash on his bum, right at and around the anus. ?? could

this be die-off? He's out of diapers during the day but wears pull-ups

at night. Just curious...

Thank you karen. and everyone else who is on this list. I am getting

so much information,help, encouragement from every one of you!

My new question: Wyatt (3 1/2) has been gradually getting up to dose

on Zyme Prime (we are almost at 1 cap/meal) and I was going to wait a

couple of weeks before I started adding in Peptizide. He seemed a bit

hyper the first week or so but the main thing I noticed was him saying

" I love you " !! Even though he's always been very verbal, he had only

said " I love you " about 3 times in his life before enzymes. Now he's

been saying it several times a day, every day!! Also, he seems a bit

more expressive about how he's feeling. !! I'm very encouraged. He

did get a cold 2 days after starting the ezymes (coincidence?) and

he's had a red rash on his bum, right at and around the anus. ?? could

this be die-off? He's out of diapers during the day but wears pull-ups

at night. Just curious...

thanks again,

Kyra, mom to wyatt
