The last few days everything has been about the same for Ali... No sleep at night and not a whole lot of interest in food during the day :( Yesterday was not a very good day at all. Ali was cranky most of the day without really any significant breaks where she seemed to feel better, not much playing or interest in anything but to be cranky. And of course nights are still a challenge - although by now it has become our routine.
Today we had an appointment for Ali for Nutrition Response Testing (some information about that here: http://www.nutritionalwellnesscenter.com/nrt.html . Through this process it was determined that she has an intestinal/stomach yeast infection called candida. First time anyone has had an idea of what the heck is going on with her! :) We are following up with this (of course) and are starting her on some natural supplements to get her over this. Everything I have read about this so far is that it is something that will take some time to get over totally, but hopefully show some improvement soon :) We still have a follow up tomorrow with Seattle Children's Hospital, at 11:20am, and friday with her pediatrician to discuss what other options and direction we may have. We are interested in what they both may think about the analysis that she has a candida infection....
