My daughter had her first bladder infection at 1 1/2 years old. She had a test done, VCUG, to see if she had urinary reflux. The test was positive, so they put her on a preventative Antibiotic for 1 year. She had the VCUG after a year, and it was normal, which means no more reflux. Since the test was normal, she has continued to bladder infections and rashes on her vagina, like the skin was burning away. She would get a bladder infection almost every single month, and of course, more Antibiotics . When she doesnt have an infection, she still gets horrible rashes on her vagina, her doc said her urine is probably very acidic. I asked her doc if it could be candida, and she said,no, children her age don't ever get candida over growth. Well, I did'nt believe her, so I got some liquid acidophulous, I give her the adult dose. She still gets these rashes that come up about every 3 to 4 days. I usually put Gynecort on it, it seems to help the pain and heal the rash, but only for a short time. Can anyone tell me what to do about this? She is in pain a lot of the time and she and I can't handle it anymore.

MoreThis is a reply to # 622,245Coral Calcium could help counteract the acidity. Get her off Sugar and refined carbohydrates if she is hooked on sweets. And she MOST CERTAINLY could have candida overgrowth. A ph test kit from the health food store or online could help you check her acid/alkaline (ph) level regularly.

MoreThis is a reply to # 622,248Accutane can cause this as well as high testosterone levels. Natural progesterone might help. I get mine from the company recommended on the www.goodbyepms.com site. The link is down on the lower left side of their site. If you are or have used Accutane, STOP/DON'T! I learned about this from Dr. Stoll's web site.

Yeah, just like the other post, the point will be to attack the over acid problem. There are a lot of possible dietary changes you can make that will help. There are also a whole host of dietary supplements that can speed up the process. What is her typical diet like? How much pure water does she drink? how much does she weigh? Would you say she is over or under weight? (both of those can be related to an over acid condition). When it comes to getting calcium, don't look to milk, it has actually been shown to cost the body more calcium than it brings in because your body has to fight the lactic acid it contains. If you would like to talk more, or just have someone to bounce ideas off of, feel free to email me. I'm a willing ear and every so often I might know something too. there is a really good book that can help with the details of rebalancing the body's pH levels, it's called "sick and tried? reclaim your inner terrain" by Dr. Robert O. Young, micro-biologist and nutritionist. He designed some supplements that I've been using for the past 6 weeks. Each dose, and for me I take 4 or 5 a day (it is by body weight and I'm 6'8" 212 lbs), is equivalent to eating 4 lbs. of vegetables as far as the minerals and nutrients go (and minerals are what your body uses to neutralize the acids). I hope to hear from you soon. Take care, and God bless you and your daughter, Mike

Could you tell me what the supplements are that you're on? I have interstital cystitis (which this poor little girl is on the fastrack to) and I am very acidic. I've been taking coral calcium, eating more vegetables and green barley drinks and doing great. But I'm always interested in something that's supposed to improve the alkaline balance.
I can tell the author of the original post that the suggestions before are right on track. Her problems is an over acidic condition, I have it myself. Other things you can try are Body Rescue Alkaline Tea. You can buy it online. It's been great and seems to really help the bladder heal, sweeten it with stevia and it's wonderful. You could use it instead of apple juice for her. I'll be praying for her too. I've lived with this for 10 years and have finally found a cure by alkalizing the body. Read everything on the web about it. And I'm sure you're little girl will get better.

This is a reply to # 622,257Hey BethDogg,
The supplements I'm using are called supergreens and prime pH. They were developed by Dr. Robert O. Young, the author of the book I mentioned ("sick and tired?"). It took a little bit of doing but I did arrange to be able to get them at whole sale for me and my family, and if you find you are interested, then I could help you to get set up with the same deal. It works out to be about $0.30 per day for every 40 lbs. of body weight. I'm about 212 lbs. (6'8") so it costs about $1.50 per day. Less than a cup of hot chocolate from starbucks :-P and a lot better for me too. The minerals and nutrients I get from those drinks is equivalent to eating about 16 lbs. of vegetables. Well, there you go. If you have any other questions, feel free to email me, it's much easier to respond that way. Talk to you later, and best of health, Mike

This is a reply to # 622,253Thanks for praying for my daughter! I appreciate that, and your post. Her diet is like most kids, I guess. She loves bread and sugar,like most kids. She does like things that are out of the ordinary for kids her age, like raw tomatoes with Sea Salt on them, steamed broccolli, corn on the cob, steamed carrots. She typically is always asking me for bread, or PB&J sandwiches, candy, cookies, juice, etc. Most of the time, I just tell her "no". I mostly give her sandwiches with lunchmeat instead, or a piece of fruit. We can't afford a lot of organic food right now, hopefully someday. I would like to give her herbs or supplements that come in liquid form, she can't swallow pills. Can she take cranberry tincture? That might help her bladder, but I don't know if it would help the acid problem. We have a PUR water filter. Is that bad? I gave her powdered coral calcium today, but it would'nt mix through her juice, so she was very leary of it. I need to find ways to giver things that are good for her, because of her age, it is difficult. What if I tried to do something like Atkins for her? I don't know if she would go for it though. I hope to hear from you soon.

This is a reply to # 622,266Hi, In reading the posts I thought I would add my 2cents worth. There is a sugar, xylitol, that has the same makeup as cranbery juice (which is used for bladder health) that your little girl could drink in water. Do a google search on xylitol and you will find that it is used in gum for school children to prevent cavities. I forgot the country, but do remember that the kids were given a stick of gum three times a day at school. They didn't have dentists available, a remote region, and the xylitol reduced the caries, and the incidence of ear infections. The chemical make-up is unique as this Sugar has no 'handle' for the bacteria to grab onto so the bacteria gets washed away by body fluids. I bought some on the web and use it when my throat gets scratchy and it clears it up. Hope you find this information helpful. Omie

This is a reply to # 622,266Hi wanted to add my two pennoth to the posts. The cranberry will almost certainly hurt her bladder as it is very acidic. Cranberry will help in cases of bacterial e-coli infection as ornie described but the acidity will just further agravate a very inflamed bladder.

This is a reply to # 622,270I appreciate the wisdom and input of everyone who has responded to my post about my daughter. Can anyone tell me about a tincture that will help with bladder function and acidity in the body? Sometimes I can sneak barley greens powder in her juice, but she has started to get keen to it. I have a hard time hiding things from her. I even put Black-Walnut hulls tincture in her water and juice before, but it seemed to make her crave Sugar all the more. Maybe she was going through some kind of withdrawal symptom, I heard that the hulls can decrease Sugar in the body. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!!

This is a reply to # 622,271How about blending supplements into a smoothie? eg. a kefir smoothie sweetened with stevia. maybe even with coconut cream/milk as well. You could put banana, carob and so on. I'm sure the coral calcium would blend well into that. And you could probably put the barley greens in there too if she doesn't mind the green colour. Make it fun for her. Perhaps she could even help you blend it.

This is a reply to # 622,273I followed Dr. Clark's parasite cleanse protocol exactly w/wormwood capsules, clove capsules and Black-Walnut hull extract. When I began the extract I got my period very heavily 2 weeks early. This has never happened before. What should I think and should I use it next week and in the future for "maintenance"?

I can just imagine what you're going through!! For kids it's even more difficult as they don't have the concept of "swallow this, it will help", they just feel "it's horrible, I don't want it"... :)
I had to do Candida diet for some time and tried the Body Ecology Diet too - let me tell you, you can take all the supplements you want, if you don't eat right, nothing or not much will change!! So this is my advice to you: I know it will be hard to change things from one day to another so maybe gradually will be wiser. Take out every kind of refined Sugar from your daughter's diet, talk to her about it, let her be part of it. Even young kids will understand that you try this for her to feel better. You can put stevia in her food to make it sweeter if that is what she wants and I completely agree with one of the posters before: make a smoothie, the taste of banana and strawberries or whatever sweet fruit will conceal the bad tastes.
Visit the Body Ecology Diet Forum on this site and you will find info about what to eat and what to avoid - you can start to make changes as gradually as your daughter's needs.
One more thing: I have some kefir grains I can send you if you think that would help as kefir restores so many things in our "inside" - do some reading on it and if you think you want the grains, please let me know. I make smoothies for my daughter with the kefir I culture - she loves it, never realises what good stuff are inside... :)
I hope I helped a little.

This is a reply to # 622,270Hi Gettingwell, In my post I said the xylitol Sugar was similar to the effect cranberry juice has. I did not suggest she take cranberry juice. However, if the urine is acidic, vitamin C will change it to alkaline and if it is alkaline, cranberry will turn it acidic. You need to know which it is to start with. If it is acidic, cranberry juice is contraindicated. Xylitol is a sugar, looks like Sugar and tastes like sugar. A four year old wouldn't mind sipping a sweet drink and it would help get rid of the bacteria. Omie

This is a reply to # 622,289Hi Omie
I was referring to SLCC's original question about cranberry juice and just wanted to stress that she must not give it to her little girl if she has acidic urine.
I had a similar problem as a child and then it came back in my late teens as interstitial cystitis - after ten years I am learning how to treat it.
This includes good diet (loads of fresh veggies, minimal prepacked or processed food), nothing acidic (no sodas, fruit juices etc). Drinking plenty of water that has an alkaline PH to make sure the urine is always very dilute.
Vitamin C should be buffered so that the acidity of it is reduced.
Regards Gettingwell

Google AdvertisementThis is a reply to # 622,266Hi SLCC,
first, the prayers are something I do a lot while reading posts here cause there are so many people here looking for help, and I know I'm not the best source (so I take it to the man in charge). I do however, strongly recomend the book I mentioned ("sick and tired") it will help you understand all the details of the changes you can make to help you daughter get here pH levels back in balance. For now I would say try to cut out all the processed Sugar you can. Even sweet fruits, should be reduced, if not stopped for now. She should be free to have tomatoes, avacadoes, lemons, limes, sour cherries, or the unsweet grapefruit, or unrippened bananas (no spots what so ever, and should still have quite a bit of green). Make sure she gets plenty of water. A good guage for water is to have her drink one quart for every 40 lbs. of body weight minimum each day. This does not include juice or anything other than pure water. Make sure she doesn't drink any sodas, they have a typical pH around 2.3 (100,000 times more acidic than pure water). Try to get her diet to be around 80% alkalizing and 40% of it raw vegetables. I'm sorry I can really only lay out the very simplest of basics here, there's just too much to write it all out. If you email me I can try to give you more detail, or answer any specific questions you might have. I hope to hear from you soon, and I hope this helps you to find a solution for your daughter. Best of health, and God bless, Mike

This is a reply to # 622,245When I had a bladder infection during pregnancy that totally resisted Antibiotics , my midwife put me on an herbal formula that cleared it overnight, never to return. I later recommended it to parents of a little girl who couldn't get over her bladder infection after many bubble baths at an aunt's house. It cured her overnight, too, and the parents were delighted. In one gallon of water you steep 1 box (Sorry, I don't know it in ounces. Used Alvita brand at the time) juniper berries and 1 box hyssop. The entire thing must be drunk in 24 hours. To correct the damage caused by the Antibiotics , the only thing that's ever worked for me is Nature's Biotics soil organism capsules.
