Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hello listmates, My six year old has chronic anterior uveitis and juvenille rheumatoid arthritis. She is currently on steroid eye drops and we are concerned about the direction that steroid drops can take because 50% of children on this method lose vision permanently. Other methods of preserving vision include immonosuppressive medication for approx five years. We are checking into other options but time is critical. I would like to hear your input on how to stop inflammation in her body partially through enzymes, but which ones? Prior to being diagnosed with uveitis/arthritis she had the chicken pox and was screaming that her eyes hurt. This was with the fever befor chicken pox. So, I specifically wonder about enzymes that may reduce inflammaion and viruses. I am familiar with the houstons trio and virastop, having used those on our oldest son. I realize enzymes can just be one piece and wonder which ones would you use and how to dose them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 , My daughter has uveitis, specifically pars planitis (cause not known). This is a very complicated condition, and the treatments options are also complicated. You can e-mail me for more info.
