daughter vomiting

I think she has a cold (or allergies) due to her coughing, sneezing, runny nose and teary eyes. She had a temperature of 98.3 under the arm this afternoon, so not really a fever. Once when she threw up, it seemed to be because she was coughing hard. But the last time, she was not coughing or anything. She was just in my arms. I guess it may be helpful to know that I also have had a reaction to an antibiotic with sulfa in it and she nurses still. I don't know if she is reacting second hand to sulfa or not. Thanks for getting back with me. Linda

Thanks for your information. I get remedies at a local health food store.

I had a urinary tract infection which I was tested for again yesterday and it is now gone but I still have some blood in my urine. The symptoms of the reaction are a rash all over my body that itches and stings. I am taking sulphur for it and it helps the itching. I also have an ulcerative kind of scab on my hand that I think may have been related to the allergic reaction. It is healing up now.

Exact date of allergy/cold symptoms - I think Nov 5 or 6.

Date I started antibiotics 10/31

I have been using sulphur off and on for a few weeks because I have allergy symptoms often related to food and that was what the Remedy Finder said to use. It is 6X. I started using it more regularly for the rash on Nov 8.

I am going to log out now because it is 1:00 AM here. But I thank you for your help and will look for a response tomorrow.

One more question for Sabra or John, how long can I expect for the sulfa to leave my system?

I will log out now and check back in tomorrow.

Thanks again.

Linda

My symptoms in reaction to the antibiotic were that within a day of starting it I had a spot on my hand that itched. I scratched it a little and there were small bumps that stayed the color of my skin. I didn't scratch that much I don't think but it became raw and the next day scabbed over. It stayed like that until the next Sunday which is a week after I started taking the antibiotic. The scabbing started to come loose and then on Monday morning after I took a shower, I had an ulcerative sore where the scab had been and it was white and red, kind of pussy. I stopped taking the antbiotic on 11/8 after the morning dose. So I took it 2 doses a day for 8 and half days. My daughter's symptoms began, I believe with a stuffy nose that was kind of crackly sounding. Then she had teary eyes. Then she had some dry coughs and then she started having light yellow green discharge from her nose. Then at night she would have a stuffy nose and breath heavily as though it was very stuffed up and even dried out. When she woke up in the morning, it would then be very runny with the yellow green. She hasn't had a fever except for yesterday a slight elevation of 83.3 under the arm. It never went up. My sensitivities and reactions to foods include sneezing and clear sometimes yellow mucus after cows milk products, sugar, wheat and corn. I try to stay away from these things, but do not this time of year as easily with Halloween and now other holidays coming up. Sometimes it turns into sinus infections if I don't clean my diet up on time. But usually it is just increased mucus and sometimes a scratchy throat with perhaps yellowish or whitish mucus down the back of my throat. I also consistently have pus in my tonsils.

Oh and by the way, my daughter slept well last night and only coughed a couple of times and never vomited again. She woke up with a little crust on her right eye. We haven't had breakfast yet so I don't know how she will handle food.

Thanks for your help. I was only able to find the 30X and gave myself one dose only, even though I know it is different from your suggestion. Last night my daughter was back to her sweet smiling self with no runny nose or vomiting. I still have to look for the probiotic but I feel we are going to be okay for our weekend travels now. Thanks again.

My daughter was fine all weekend except for being a little fussy but I thought it was because she rode a plane and stayed in unfamiliar surroundings all weekend. She had a slightly runny nose a couple of times, kind of yellowish. She is still a bit fussy and last night about 2 to 2:30 she threw up once. It seemed to be milk. Today she needs to be held and is fussy and has a slightly runny nose still. I still haven't had a chance to look for the probiotic, but will do so today. Do you think my daughter's symptoms are something new--a bug or something or still related to last week's symptoms?

I just took her temperature and it is 98.9 under the arm.

Current health - Feeling a little light headed today. Some chills. No more pains from the urinary tract infection. The rash is clearing up too. I feel pretty tired today. Normal appetite.

Medicine using - I have been taking supplements for several tyears under the recommecdations of a trusted alternative practitioner. Currntly I take fenugreek and red raspberry for nursing support, Drenamin (whole foods from Standard Process), Symplex F from Standard Proc. calcium, b-complex, b12, Ferrofood from Standard Proc.

Current diet since hepar - We were visiting relatives from Fri to Sun and so I had less control over the diet. I drink water only most days (exceptions occur about once a month, with none since taking the hepar). I ate a lot of meat and sweets on Sat and Sun. Also very garlicky foods on a couple of occasions. Yesterday, I had a very spicy hot BBQ sauce.

Diet before - Usually meat or fish about once a day, sometimes skipping a day. Sweets are my downfall, so I try to not buy them, but last week someoe brought us their leftover Halloween peanut butter cups and I had a lot of them. I eat whole grain and sprouted grain breads and eat pasta, rice veggies, occasional fruit.

I took the hepar solution early this afternoon I believe. She seems to be in better spirits, but still not really herself. What in the diet are you referring to as affecting her through breastfeeding? I'm assuming sugar, but anything else? I don't use cow's milk products very often.
