I have 3 boys. The oldest is 6, middle is 4, and the youngest is a year. The 6 yr old has an amazing immune system which is kind of annoying because he is my one that I bf the shortest amt of time. I bf him only 2 months if that. Anyway, my middle son is sick what seems like all the time and for a long period of time too. My youngest son is little so when he gets sick it can be rough too, but at least he gets over it. I'm not sure what is going on with my 4 yr old, but I am concerned. Is that normal to have a child that is sick all the time and stays sick for long periods of time? Example, he got sick on Easter Sunday. Had stomach cramps, diarraha, fever, runny nose, and cough. All symptoms went away for a day and then the fever and cramps came back. Then they were gone for a day and now he has a fever again and his ear is hurting him. Anyone else have a kid like this? We don't vaccinate and I swear he is the reason for that. I just have a feeling that if we did he would react badly. Not sure if this helps at all, but he also has a dairy allergy and gets no dairy at all.

sounds like he is reacting to food. Have you done an elimination diet? I have heard multiple instances of children reacting this way and my gut feeling (I am not a doctor, nor do I play one on tv) is that it is related to GMO corn... If you haven't already, cut out all chemicals- MSG, preservatives, food colorings, HFCS... here are some hidden names for MSG http://www.msgmyth.com/hidename.htm are you sure dairy is out 100%? It hides in so many foods... there is a list of all its names on this page http://gfcf-diet.talkaboutcuringauti...-is-casein.htm
Also cut out soy, as it has been compromised by GMO IMO, and even if it hasn't, it acts the same on the brain as dairy. Here is info and a list of soy names http://gfcf-diet.talkaboutcuringauti...hat-is-soy.htm
gluten commonly causes gastric distress and pulling it out of my diet has ended the 'attacks' I had since childhood, for the first time ever! I feel soooooo much better. Living without gluten has been easier than I thought it would be, though I haven't found an affordable replacement for bread. (Udi's is delish! but expensive) We also live without corn (mostly, not 100% yet) since I believe GMO has compromised the supply. We also eat organic mostly at least the top 12 here is a list of them. I have to compromise on oranges and bananas because we are broke... I buy the blueberries and cherries organic and frozen until they are in season and it is cheaper fresh.... gl. changing his diet for a time may heal his gut and then he may be able to eat them again.
