RE: Help with my Daughter

[Guest guest]

Hi Suzanna,

I can imagine that this is very frustrating.

Please take a good look at it being caused by a food allergy. Keep a food and

symptom diary. You can also do a food elimination test on your own, which would

require some extreme dietary changes to try to determine if her problems are

caused by an allergy.

Best of luck to you.

The following are suggestions only. Is she having 2-3 bowel movements daily?

Symptoms of Candida? It will not hurt her to do a good parasite cleanse.

Also, taking her off all milk, sugar and gluten may provide improvement.

Re-populate the gut using a good spore-bearing probiotic at night.

Be Well

[ ] Help with my Daughter

Since this is a very knowledgeable group I would like to ask an advise

for my 7 year old daughter. This is not the first time Western medicine

is failing to diagnose simple problems, First was my son, now my

daughter. 6 months ago she had pain in the abdomen, they did x-rays

couple of times, stool test, urine nothing. Now she keeps complaining

about not able to breath(I think she cannot explain what is going on)

and she shows her tummy. To me it is getting bloated and she gets gas.I

took to homeopathic doctors, with different tests one said that she has

pinworms, the other machine shows disturbance in the intestinal flora.

It also shows she has difficulty breathing. I went to emergency and they

did x-rays of the chest and ekg. Everything is normal. Is it possible

that parasites can cause this type of disturbance and she is complaining

every day. The western drs said there is nothing wrong, they also did a

blood test. I am stuck. Nobody is able to diagnose anything. I need help

please.

Thanks,

Suzanna

I would take " feeling like she can't breath " very seriously, regardless if the

doctors tell you there is nothing wrong. There is just nothing that they can

find. Don't be afraid to keep asking to see specialists... or take her to the

urgent care if her breathing seems to be worse.

Have the doctor's checked her vitamin D levels? That is probably grasping at

staws, but if it was an easy problem, the doctors would have found it by now.

Shortness of breath can also be associated with:

- Kidney disease

- Panic attacks / fear

- Maybe need chiropractic (one article said that the ribs may not move eaily to

allow breathing and chiropractic may help)

- Babesia (a tick borne infection) can cause air hunger.

I'm sure the doctor's didn't test for any of these things, except maybe kidney

function.

From what little you describe it sounds like a digestive impairment. These

can have many sources from allergies (or intolerances that do not show in

allergy testing) to being in a state of 'shock' where the body goes into a

flight or fight response. I presume that you have already consulted a

nutritional therapist on this issue.

Suzanna, I am not a Doctor, but I have a question for you :

Is she very tired too ?

This could have many origins and I am thinking of course about food allergies

starting with the big four.. : gluten, artificial sweeteners, colorants and

dairies.

It could be also something else and I am thinking about something discovered

in CFS patients ... Another possibility could be a severe adrenals exhaustion...

When her worst attacks happens mostly ? Indoor, outdoor, in the traffic, in a

car ?

Like in the case of asthma and epilepsy attacks , you can teach her how to

recognize and to deal with the first symptoms and to switch to a calm deep

breathing mode before the full attack happens .. Medical hypnosis is useful for

this..

Please let me know..

=========================

It could be Suzanna,in this case she will exhibit also other symptoms like

fears, extreme shyness and phobia.. and the attack will be worst in place where

the qua;ity of air is very poor : traffic,tunnel, subway..

----------------------

One another hypothesis will be : fire retardant. They are everywhere in the

house and in your car and release very toxic gasses....

These chemicals include formaldehyde (a proven carcinogen), boric acid (roach

killer), antimony trioxide (mimics arsenic), decabromodiphenyl oxide (banned in

two states), Melamine (the chemical recently found in import pet food that

sickened and killed pets across the country), Ammonium Polyphosphate, and

vinylidene chloride

A lot of people are allergic to fire retardant..

SEE :

http://www.perfectionmattress.com/AA_Fire_Retardancy.html

-----------------

A testimonial :

My husband and I purchased the Tempurpedic mattress and pillows thinking it

would be extremely comfortable and an investment. The first night I woke up in

the middle of the night with shortness of breath, thinking I was either having a

panic attack or asthma attack (which I only had one other time as a young

child). I now realize it must have been the chemicals emitting from the

mattress.

-------------------

56% of all infant carriers, 44% of all car seats, 40% of all strollers and 19%

of all portable cribs were found to have high levels of halogenated fire

retardants.

I have adrenal exhaustion, but this is not one of my symptoms - which doesn't

mean much, of course. However, the fact that she has her attacks in confined

spaces may mean she is claustrophic, and there might not be another medical

condition underlying this. Claustrophia and panic attacks.

A word about allergy testing, get a copy of what they tested your daughter for.

You might be surprised that they DIDN'T test for many things. For instance, I

went through years of allergy testing, but was never tested for chicken and

turkey - which I am actually allergic to. Also, not all those tests will look

at minerals, metals, chemicals, etc.
