Guest guest Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Hi Dr. Popplewell, Funny, I was just thinking about this and wondering about what was really going on. From what said, her granddaughter's yeast seemed quite under control with the transfer factor, then some blood tests were run which showed elevated ammonia. Either before or after the blood test was run (I think after?), noticed the red ring on her granddaughter's bum. When took her granddaughter off the transfer factor, her granddaughter got " the mother of all yeast infections " . Her doctor put her on Diflucan, which has very effectively brought things under control. has noticed additional progress with her granddaughter on Diflucan and off transfer factor, including the ability to follow 5 instead of 3 step directions, better small motor control, etc. We had a somewhat similar experience with LDN. My son did great on it for a while, then when I finally pulled him off, I realized, because of the gains we saw removing the LDN, that he had probably built up some significant ammonia while he was on LDN. And yes, when we took him off, yeast got more challening to control. My son is on diflucan as well. Is there something about immune boosters/modulators that could cause elevated ammonia? Something in the cycle? What, if anything, does ammonia have to do with the immune system? I guess what I am saying is that I query whether transfer factor could somehow cause elevated ammonia which could in turn cause the red ring saw (and that we have seen alot, for a long time assuming it was yeast). Thoughts? , please feel free to correct any misstatements I may have made..... Anne > > > > > > Seems they do all have mushrooms.
