LEODENN do you buy things from wholefoodfarmacy.com ? I have been looking at the site and wondered how the food is. Do you sell it also or just buy from them? Thanks PetB

Carolyn GREAT POST. I am also ALWAYS searching for that missing link with my son. My Intergrative dr does NMT. I know there was someone else on here that does that, was it you? can't find the post. Last appointment I asked my dr to check to see if he needed enzymes. We were testing for so many other things she forgot. He does take probiotics, but I think enzymes will definetly help. We added a liquid magnesium and I added mag/taurate. Things seem a little better. Thank You so much for sharing all of the info you have learned. I actually got very teary-eyed reading it. I hope it is your missing-link. I am going to give it a try. I do have Digestazon Plus from Amazon Herb Co. I have recently learned alot about enzymes in school. My blessing in disguise was my son getting a dx of Tourettes. I am now a Holistic Health Counselor (still in school) and I am now counseling others. So good things do come to us for all of the research that we do. Stay Healthy, PetB www.BrendaHealth.com

Caryn, which celiac forum did you join? My son tested negative for glutten. so we have stopped wheat but not spelt;. He eats spelt bread a few times a week. It is hard to substitute bread. Lunch is my challange. But I do think if i cut all glutten out I would see more improvement. It seems so hard. But you mentioned a site that help teach you how, I would love to learn how. Thanks petb

Thanks for saving me $40.00. I figured it was to good to be true. petb

Hi Has anyone downloaded this E Book; The Root Cause. It is from the UK. I was wondering if it had any merit. Thanks PetB

HI catjb We have been doing NMT treatments for about 1 year. I really believe it is what is helping my son. We he develops a tic for some reason, (food or environmental) she usually pins points the reason why and treats him for it and he gets better with in a day. How long have you been doing it? Interesting how you feel the acupucture helped more. My dr. does both but she never said he needed acupucture, only the NMT. It is hard to find someone else who is doing NMT also. I would love to chat more about it with you. PetB

HI I finally got results for my son on his ASO titers. it was 361.9 it is above the 0 - 200.0 range. But it isn't that high. Should I be concerned? Thanks for your advise, petb

HI I found this interesting info I wanted to share. Hope you enjoy it like I did. He touches alot of areas. Brenda http://www.eklhad.net/foods/index.html

Hi, As we (east coast) heads into spring, I have been researching some pool cholrine alternatives. We got a pool last year and I am sure it added to my sons ticcing. For those of you that get Dr. Mercola's newletters, just lastweek he did a segment on cholrine in pools. He suggestes Oxidation. http://v.mercola.com/QA/Chlorine-Alternati...t-Tub-2880.aspx I also found this info on oxidation. http://swimming.about.com/od/allergyandast...l_problem_3.htm I also found this company EcoSmarte. http://www.ecosmarte.com/poolspa.html They use Copper Ionazation to filter the pool. My husband likes this better. He said the oxidation still uses some cholrine. Does anyone use any alternatives or have any suggestions? Thanks PetB

Great Thanks, I just wanted to make sure.

HI All, I have a recipes I wanted to try and it calls for Baking Soda. Do you use baking soda? I wasn't sure if there was a better alternative. Thanks so much, PetB

I read this and this is all way over my head. My son is on amoxicillian and his tics have come back. The vocal is getting worse and he's doing eye rolling too. I can't believe this. We almost had this under control before this set back. But his face is getting better so yeah for that. I am giving him primadolphilius. It has NutraFlora in it only 1.8g. My doctor said he can't get enough of it. I have been giving him 2 tsp a day. Is there something better you think I should use? On a side note... Reading all the posts on PANDAS....i never had him tested for that. Wondering i I should to rule it out, Thanks PetB

Thanks for that advice. My son does take some homeo from the dr. I always look at the homeopathic med in the health food store and I don't know anything about it. But I think I will do my research and try that next time something comes up. Thanks, PetB

WOW What a morning.... I took my high-fevered daughter to the dr and she has strep. My son (who has TS) was with us bc he had a slight temp this morning. He looked at him and his face and said he has Impetigo. So that explaines his never ending lip liccing and picking his mouth. At least I have an answer. So they both have to go on Amoxilian. I am so nervous about giving him the antibiotic. This ped does not agree with our alternative plan and it killed me to go but I was desperate for my daughter. And he did help with my son now. I WILL not give motrin anymore. 1 dose-uggh. Do you use white willow bark? I was told to use that but not sure on how much for a child so I was just opening it and giving her half. It's when they get sick. I don't know what to do and tend to fall back on my old treatments..like tylenol, motrin etc... My son is also supose to put bactroban on his face too. The supplements we are on are mostly from my recommendations. The first dr we saw that did the IGG test came up with her plan on what he needed (also from my recommendations). Thanks to this forum and my own research. The NMT dr changed this around because of the way he tested for them. I know I am missing something and I am always tring to figure out what it is. It does drive me crazy that she doesn't know. I have learned to trust myself. I used to get really fustrated (and I still do) on not being able to count on a doctor, but with all these drs they just don't know the all answers. Every kid is different. I really think Inositol would help, but she said no, his body doens't need it. So I am listening to her. I feel the best I can do for him is build up his body by feeding him healthy. Have to tend to my sick kids PetB

HI All, My son seems to be getting sick. He has a fever. What do you give your kids? My daughter has been sick, and white willow bark didn't seem to help her 102 temp. So I had to give her Motrin. I did found it without dyes. But it still had other stuff that wasn't good in it. Not sure if I should give this to my son. What is your opion? I do use Sambucal and give them vit c too. Thanks so much PetB
