Hi HelenJenn, it's not surprised that you son's tics gone after this diet...after studying it on web further and watching the videos below has helped to understand this diet thing is much more profound than it seems...one lady asked how about how to regulate immune system, the answer seems lay in the guts. thanks for sharing your story, it makes me wanting to start this diet. Have been on GFCF diet, not enough. DD8 also has tics. Would love to communicate with you regarding this. Can you PM me or is it ok I pm you? It's quite intimidating to start with the intro diet as you did it. It's better to start with the full diet with us, since my DD is constipated..the hard part is how do you pack for lunch with this diet.. The following are the videos I watched...have you seen them before? loads of info totally worth watching. Dr Campbell speach at Price conference: (1hr 30min) Youtube: Dr. Joseph Mercola interviews Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride (2 hrs)

colleenrn Can you tell me where you get babesia test done? My ILADS tested DD8 for babesia through Igenex, nagetive. Now DD8 has been under treatment since August...thanks for you post to remind me I need to do another babesia test..according to ILADS, regular labs (covered by insurance) does not test babesia...I have an appointment with this Dr this afternoon at 4:15..will ask her again. We are following Zhang's protocol for babesia..she herxed on the fifth day..I really should have her tested again. Thanks so much! Hang in there. Zhang's website : www.zhangsclinicnyc.com

We drove 20 hrs to a BBC near us, ready to start the program. after the evaluation (test), total 3 hrs. we are told that my DD8 is a borderline case, basicly BBC program will help, but doing the program at home should be sufficient. Similar to yours, DD has tic, anxiaty issues which is mild. She is functioning well in and out of school...their test confirmed DD is accademicly gifted. right after the test, we have our lyme test back, indicating infection. So we did not do the program and came home started lyme treatment. So here is what I am thinking: 1. Definately go through the test from them, that will help you decide if you want or fit for their program. our experience is that the test give you so much information it's is worth it regardless, just think I drove total 40 hrs for it and glad. 2. Did you rule out lyme? and other infections? The Dr there told me infection needs to be dealt with first. I am glad this Dr has the integrity to not just grap my money, $6000 is not a small amount for 3 month program. 3. I have heard good stories about doing the program at home..with the book 'disconnected kids'. I got both of his books...just started small..it's quite daunting of a task to do everything in the book...I am still struggling with lyme treatment at the moment. Please keep us updated....best luck to you.

Hi Priscilla, Thanks for sharing your amazing story..I went to read your old posts, somehow I can only see the first page, not the rest..(any tricks here?) When you say you had "PANDAS/Lyme" diagnosis, Do you mean your DD actually had it or is it a false positive due to vaccine? Did you treat lyme specificly? My DD8 has quite a few positive lyme bands, ILAD wants treatment, but I am still not sure if lyme is true for us. So I opt for a more natural treatment (Zhangs protocol). Thanks again for giving us hope and courage!

Could you PM me too. Thanks so much for sharing...This is the first time I heard about it...need to do more research, will also ask my ILAD.
