ON A MISSION TO HEAL!

[Warrior Mom]

OK...I'm on a MISSION to heal.

 

My son's urine organic acid test (OAT) revealed some surprises and I'm VERY interested to hear back from other parents if they had any similar results. If so, how did the results impact treatment?

 

Chief challenges: SHORT ATTENTION SPAN, HYPERACTIVITY, FREQUENT URINATION with his autism diagnosis

 

EXCESSIVE a-ketoglutaric acid (AKG) aka: (2-oxoglutaric acid or alpha ketogularic acid) -- 52.0 mmol.mol creatinine -- should be lower than 32.3

 

HIGH LEVELS of Dihydroxyphenylpropionic Acid (DHPPA) -- HIGH -- 3.3 mmol/mol creatinine -- should be lower than 1.6

 

SLIGHTLY HIGH of Fumaric Acid -- 2.3 mmol/mol creatinine -- should be below 2.2

 

Begging for answers...

I believe this is due to clostridia. We saw this and achieved good results from Flagyl and Fluconizole combined. However, the diet must be curbed of sugars and prebiotics to help avoid recurrence, which will likely happen at some point.
