Guest guest Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 There are so many factors in healing. What all are you doing now, and what are you not doing due to allergies? Maybe there are alternatives. Heidi N ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 > > What is a child deficient in if they don't heal normally? I use B1 to eliminate the bites entirely. If I miss a dose and it is bug season, I might get some bites, but they disappear quickly once I take B1 again.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Thank you all for the suggestions. I wanted to updated that b/c she has other symptoms of blood glucose problems (and b/c I had some on hand), I gave her the chromium at every meal since yesterday afternoon. Her bug bites are healing and a few that are months old have completely healed up - in one day! Apparently that was the culprit. Thank you all so much for helping me figure it out.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 Hi Wyndie, What kind of bug bites? Please eliminate standing water to reduce mosquito breeding areas. Consider NAET (www.naet.com) to help deal with the allergies. Bruises that don't heal or heal slowly may mean she needs vitamin K.

My littlest one gets bug bites and you can see them for a month or more. Anyone have any ideas what she's missing? She's on several supplements but has many allergies so is not on the full array of typical supplements.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 Thank . The bug bites look like average mosquito bites. I don't have any standing water around but we do go on walks/bike rides daily and she tends to attract mosquitoes. I have upped her b vitamins on Dana's suggestion to make her unattractive to bugs. I have tried NAET but it was unsuccessful for her. There is only one practitioner in the area so I am unable to pursue that option at this time. I have been looking into Vit K. Thank you for mentioning that b/c it motivates me to get on it quickly. Thank you! wyndie > > > Hi Wyndie, > What kind of bug bites? Please eliminate standing water to reduce mosquito breeding areas.
