I had 2 of my possible 3 amalgams removed last week. I say possible, because one is a crown and we don’t know what is under it, even with x-rays – so until the crown is replaced (soon, I hope), I have to assume it’s an amalgam. If you haven’t already seen the smoking tooth […]

Nicholas got dressed….by himself
January 19th, 2009 
Mom So, when Nicholas got up this morning he was all wet, so I stripped him down and changed his diaper and came downstairs to throw his sheets and stuff in the wash. 5 minutes later, Nicholas comes downstairs FULLY DRESSED!!!! in a matching outfit that was hanging in his closet!
Current Master Supplement Listing: January 2009
January 17th, 2009 Mom Note: For info on these supplements including where to buy them, visit my Supplement Directory page. Changes since the last update are: Stopped Virastop & Mucostop: Haven’t seen any difference in Nicholas since stopping these several weeks ago. I will add back in the future if needed & will give Mucostop when he has a […]
Things that just did not work
January 17th, 2009 Mom So, of course, there were things along the way that did not work for us for one reason or another – and I am going to record them all here – I’ve written about many of them throughout the blog, but in case you miss them, they’re listed here – and I will also list […]
Added Phosphatidyl Serine today
January 14th, 2009 Mom I added Phosphatidyl Serine today from Pro Thera. Today, I gave 1 softgel and if all goes well, I will see how 2 goes tomorrow. This doesn’t seem to have a pleasant taste, so mixing it in with his fish oils is probably a good idea. This is the one I bought: ProThera Phosphatidyl Serine […]
Current Progress
January 14th, 2009 Mom This past weekend, we saw another set of changes in Nicholas – they seemed to all happen practically overnight. – He’s now into watching Toot & Puddle and when he asks to watch it – he sings it like the intro to the show. – He woke me up this morning by knocking on his […]
Added Glucosamine Today
January 12th, 2009 Mom I started giving Nicholas one cap of this today. This is an extremely hard softgel (yeah, you read that right) which I have to saw into with my big knife (Just what I want to do first thing inthe morning is use a knife on a softgel – thank goodness this is relatively big unlike […]
Round 18: Complete & Dosage Increased
January 12th, 2009 Mom Round 18 completed! I increased the dose of both ALA and DMSA this round. Our new dosages are as follows: DMSA: 16.7.mg ALA: 8.33mg Nicholas seemed to tolerate the higher dose just fine. (It wasn’t much of a jump, but it was still an increase over what we have been giving him.)
Capsules I just cannot open…
January 11th, 2009 Mom I started Nicholas on two supplements and I cannot get these gelcaps open – without sawing into them with the sharpest knife in my drawer! So, needless to say, I will be looking for replacements. If you have any I should take a look at, please let me know! Now Foods Ubiquinol CoQH-CF Natrol Glucosamine […]
Added Aloe Vera today
January 9th, 2009 Mom I have been hearing good things from those with kids with gut issues that Aloe Vera helps so much, so I decided to try it and see. A big bottle was under $10 at Whole Foods, so I figured why not. I’ve been giving him one tablespoon per day and will try to fit in […]
