Radiation

Forums: 

Perhaps this is a silly question, but it's on my mind so I'll ask anyway.  My dad is currently being treated for cancer and is having radiation every day for the next 3 weeks.  I haven't seen him since he started the radiation therapy, but I'm just wondering if there is any ill effects for us ICers from being in close contact with someone who is receiving lots of radiation.  I only ask because I could go see him tomorrow after he has his daily dose in the morning or I could wait til Sunday when he'll have had 48 hours off from being "irradiated". 

 

child's reaction to antibiotics?

Forums: 

My 9 year old son had to take a course of abx for a serious wound he had about 2 months ago and since then , his behavior issues have increased! He tends toward the angry, violent, outbursts but his behavior had improved so much in the past few years, I chalked it up to maturity. But since the abx, he seems to be worse and I don't know if it is coincedental or what. I am gving him probiotics and CLO and I htink I will tak ehime to our homeopath because maybe she can help with a constitutional remedy. it si really hard to handle right now. This morning he was screaming and slamming doors.

Soft foods

Forums: 

I wanted to share what has helped me recently.  I figured that if symptoms were due to leaky gut, that it would be good to have gentle foods that allowed the gut to heal.  I had been eating a lot of rice cakes for on the go (especially with a new baby), and I took those out, in addition to eating only very soft cooked veggies, so no raw celery, etc...  I also took out anything that was allowed, though that I knew affected me (like brown rice, butter).  For me, I could tell I was sensitive by inflammation in my face/slight headache/stuffy nose, although it did not seem to affect my bladder.
