CRYSTAL!! :)

Hey! Glad to see you on here, although sorry you have a reason to
be here.

Is little man on anything for the ammonia? Chrystine takes L-
carnitine and alpha ketoglutaric acid for that and it helped tons.
I'm sorry if I've told you that before. LOL

Have you looked any further into the Vit K protocol? That might
help with the oxalates without further restricting his diet. I join
you in your frustration over what to feed our sensitive kids. I
know you hate having him on so much meat; have you looked into sea
vegggies yet? Is he having aversion issues or just not tolerating
the other foods? Are his reactions severe or just difficult to
watch?
