Day 3: Diflucan

He seems to be getting better.  Not pooping much, even with oxypowder – which says that he’s terribly constipated due to the yeast die-off.  Gotta up the oxypowder…  We spent alot of time outside today.  He really loves being outside.  Playing in water, the sandbox, driving his car, etc – just loves it.  I cringe […]

Day 2: Diflucan

Nicholas hasn’t been himself since we started the diflucan.  He’s not necessarily being bad, he just isn’t “him”.  Tonight after his bath, he climbed into our bed and just lied there watching tv – it was not like him at all.  I’m sure he feels awful – his appetite at dinner seems smaller.  After school, […]

Day 1: Diflucan

I threw in the towel on fighting the yeast myself and had the dr call in an Rx for diflucan.  Here’s hoping it does something!!

What am I working on now?

New Supplement added today

I added EnZym-Complete/DPP-IV from Kirkmanlabs.com Why did I add this?  Antibodies against casien and gluten cross react to lymphocytes containing CD26 & CD69.  CD26 is a receptor protein expressed on a digestive enzyme called DPP-IV which is used to digest gluten and casein peptides.  Abnormalities in this enzyme might explain why they have both gluten and […]

Supplements I am thinking of adding next…

Milk Thistle:  Even though Nicholas is taking Liver Life, which has milk thistle in it, I still think he could benefit from some additional Milk Thistle, so I’m going to add it to his arsenal. Lysine:  Lysine will help to eliminate strep.  Will be started at 250 mg / day working up to 5o0 mg/day […]
