Hi Jamie!
I believe my son's neuro is going to give him some sort of crystal stuff
(can't remember the name of it) that is suppose to help with preventing
kidney stones.
I'll keep you posted on the diet once he starts it.We still have a meeting
with the nutritionist to attend.

Gina, I have a daugther who has seizures too. I had a lot of questions when
she started two years ago so I looked into info and learned a little about
the diet. I think John Hopkins Univ. started it. It does work for some
people and it can be hard on kids, but if your Neuro is suggesting it, then
it might be worth a try. I think I read that kidney stones are a side
effect and that the child has to fast before starting it. Let us know what
happens please :)
