Re: Stool test and enzymes? URGENT FOR SUSAN

[Guest guest]

,

Do you know who you spoke with at DDI? The reason I ask is that my

son went into HORRIBLE, HIDEOUS regression when I stopped AFP for ONE

meal for the same test. I was in a panic, calling Pfeiffer, calling

DDI, it was a Friday around noon, I remember it all so vividly

because my son's behavior was making me sooooooo sad and Friday

afternoon is a terrible time for a crisis. Five days like that???

We almost gave up on the test.

ANYWAY, when I called DDI I was frantic and PUSHY. I ended up on the

phone with their Senior VP of something or other, like the #2 person

at the lab. They just wanted to get rid of me so badly, I was

DEMANDING to talk to the lab people, I refused to accept anything a

receptionist was telling me " she THOUGHT. " ANYWAY, that person told

me that there is one specific enzyme called something like

camotrimson, campotrypsin, something like that, that would affect the

test, but that was the ONLY enzyme that would. I specifically read

her the ingredients of the AFP and made her repeat herself several

times. Eventually, a lab person at Pfeiffer also called me back (at

like 9 p.m. that Friday night!) and confirmed the same info. So I

don't know, you'll have to decide for yourself, but we simply did not

have stopping the enzymes as an option.

HTH instead of confuses the matter!

Hi ,

Thank you for your reply. I didn't get back from church until late

last night and I just checked my e-mail this morning. Actually, I

was very upset that my daughter is not on her enzymes-- as she hardly

made any eye contact with me this morning. I can't believe these

enzymes make such a difference!

I am trying to clarify this with Dr. Houston and maybe I can get her

back on them this evening.

Thank you soooooo much for your help!

Blessings,
