Steroid questions

I'll will definitely check it out if his CaM Kinase is normal.

 

However, if his CaM is elevated in conjunction with other test results.... RF is mostly likely the cause and with RF there is an resilient bacteria that we will treat aggressively. My older son looks like a completely different child after IVIG.... dark circles he had are gone and skin tone is completely different.

Wendy,

have you ever considered some type of allergy in your little one? have you read or looked thru the book "Is This Your Child?" by Doris Rapp?

 

The puffy eyes with dark circle is indicative of allergic shiners, as they are called. Some tantrumy behavior can also be indicative of allergy or sensitivity to some foods. Have you kept a log of food he eats and especially note what he consumed before the behaviors you are looking at? it doesn't have to be immediately before, it could be hours or even the day before.
