My dd12 is doing great so I wanted to give a positive update to you guys. After starting to see a lyme doc in DC in May and getting her on a good protocol and getting her MTHFR diagnosed, she has changed dramatically at long last!
Brief history.....
first strep age 11 months old
chronic infections throughout childhood (strep, sinus, chest, ear)
sensory processing disorder (age 5)
gluten intolerance (age 6)
PANDAS (age 7)
Lyme (age 9)
separation anxiety, unusual fears, OCD, emotional outbursts, unreasonable, etc.
MTHFR mutation (age 11)
She still reacts to strep but she recovers more quickly. She sleeps in her room by herself now and I was able to move into the downstairs master bedroom for the first time ever. She gets herself ready for school in the morning. Takes showers, brushes teeth, puts her dishes in the sink, cleans her room. Things are so close to what I think is normal.
We still have a ways to go on lyme treatment and I don't know what to expect with the strep reactions. Right now, hoping we can get through the year with no strep infections. She's on Tindimax, Alinia, Diflucan, Thorne Methyl - Guard Plus, probiotics, Yucca Root, and Dandelion Root and a couple other things I can't remember now. She will probably get an abx protocol change in a month or so. Might stir some things up.
