also i was wondering if there is any special diet or kind of food that zowi should be eating? the dr did not mention this, so justin will be asking tomorrow. |
It could take up to two wks but most likely around a week to get results. My Lilly was just diagnosed 2 wks ago with cushings & she was put on Melatonin & Flaxseed Hulls (Lignins) & we are still in the trial period + waiting for the Thyroid panel results as she has atypical but not showing the typical signs but has deff Thyroid symptoms. Her water consumption has deff decreased along with her ravaging appetite. High proteins are ok but low fat & low fiber & low purine content.
IF they put your baby on the Melatonin & Flax be sure to get what the Dr tells you to as you do not want the Flax oil & the melatonin comes in regular, time released & fast absorbing so it is very important to get the rite ones.
