any information to keep my son protien free would be wonderful. I heard of a honey and garlic remedy that I think I'm going to try, but knock on wood haven't had to yet. What kind of anti rejection med was he on? My son was on cyclosporine a year and a half ago and just stopped a 12 week course of cytoxin last week. So far fingers crossed he's been ok. Please feel free to email me. ashtonemail@cox.net Wendi --Previous Message-- : Hi, I have never done this before, and am not : sure.... : Last year about this time we discovered that : my son had Nephrotic syndrome, and at the : time felt like the worst parent. Noticed my : son "gaining wieght" and : attributed it to diet, lack of exersise, : etc. At 13 he never wore shorts, so I did : not notice his legs until one day he showed : me his feet and could not even see his toes. : Off to the Dr and immediate referal to : Children's Hospital....his weight gain was : water retention, 25lbs of it. To make a : long story short it was a misserable 9 : monthes and eventually anti-rejection : medication, which he can not stand. I have : been doing alot of research on nutrition and : the immune system and was wondering what : others have found. There seems to be a : strong coorilation in childhood deseases and : poor diet. Have others found the same. I : would like to share more of what I have : found if people are interested. As of now : we are in remission and have been since : June. YEA!!! : Jill :
