    Patryk is it very impressive that you’re doing all this research! It is not easy doing things on your own when you aren’t getting help from doctors so great job!

    Just a few things to point out. Homeopathics are safe for all ages but phytogens and Gemmotherapies are not as they are not diluted like homeopathics. Gemmotherapies shouldnt be given to children under 12 and phyto-gens should be used with GREAT care in very small amounts. I typically ONLY use pure homepathics on kids rather than herbs or phytos/gemmos to be on the safer side, except for specific circumstances.

    As far as bio magnetic pair medicine goes, to be honest I’ve never had it done and I dont see many practitioners around here practicing it so i dont have much of an opinion on its effectiveness! Im a huge fan of accupunture/accupressure, TENS, andΒ  infrared therapy.

    Hello Patryk, Welcome to the platform! So happy to have you here πŸ™‚

    I want to start by saying that this type of autoimmune is quite complicated (as I am sure you know) and is affected by several different factors (genetics, stress, lifestyle, family history, health history, environment, toxicity load, etc). I cant appropriately give advice especially for children without doing full health intake, etc as the route you would take to improve this condition GREATLY depends on many different factors mentioned above.

    That being said, Vitamin K, D, and C are always good ideas as they help to reduce bruising and increase platelets. Getting your son a full food sensitivity panel (I like ELISA panel #5) to determine if anything he is currently eating (could be healthy foods too) is triggering his immune response is a good idea also.

    Have you been working with a practitioner for this protocol he is on or is it something you are doing on your own? I would highly suggest doing spleen and liver drainage with homeopathics also. I am not sure if you tried Chinese medicine but you may want to check out Yiqi Shexue formula for Treatment of Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia. This formula works on regulating Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg cells and genetic defects contributing to ITP. Here is a link to great research study explaining the mechanism and molecular targets of the herbs in the formula: https://WWW.FRONTIERSIN.ORG/ARTICLES/10.3389/FPHAR.2019.01136/FULL

    At the end of the day, autoimmunity is from a dysregulation in immune cells (th1, th2, th9, th17) and regulating those should be the primary focus however determining which immune cells are out of balance and which to downregulate will require extensive health intake and history which I dont have so it would be irresponsible for me to suggest anything else without having your son as a client unfortunately πŸ™

    Please let me know if you have any further questions and I will think on this more and see if there is anything else I can add πŸ™‚

    In a person with low wbc count, you want to support Th1 response and downregulate Th2 dominance. Th1 support is generally done with berberine, baicalin, sulforaphane, ginger, echinacea, etc. There are combination products designed to do this Such as Th1 Support. Downregulation of Th2 excess is generally done with perilla, astragalus, NAC and quercetin. There are likewise combinations designed to include these such as Th2 modulator.

    If an inflamed person is already taking things to downregulate NFkB, such as curcumin, resveratrol, D, fish oil, etc., but they are Th2 dominant, lowering the doses of these may be appropriate, but you need to watch to be sure the persons inflammation isn’t getting worse. If the TGFbeta blood level is too high, it may indeed be necessary to reduce the dose of these. Again, though this depends on the case and person.

    Companies never use green stevia as it will make the product green. If it says stevia leaf then it is the green. if it just says stevia, then it is the processed white powder and usually when they stevia leaf extract, they are referring to the liquid. The only way to be sure is to call or email the company. Most use powdered stevia.

    yes 100% need liver support. I would assume he would need to consume more protein? But again, I am not familiar with this condition so would advise working with a practitioner who is to ensure a healthy diet πŸ™‚

    That means something is triggering a lot of inflammation. you definitely want to get to the root cause of why it is increasing.

    Yes acid reflux can be caused by poor esophageal function from inflammation (GERD) and poor MMC and vagal tone however there isnt a direct correlation between asthma and acid reflux (that I know of). I think he just has 2 conditions that flare each other up but that arent necessarily correlated.

    regular eczema is usually dry whereas dyshidrotic is wet because there are small pus-filled blisters.

    I am a bit confused with your questions about thyroid and liver. Liver and kidney drainage using homeopathics always work regardless of how the other parts of the body function. At the end of the day though, you want to make sure hormones are in balance so that everything works properly especially when off the homeopathics.

    Sfsimmons2001, you just need a small dome but if it does not appear, it may be too cool in your home. Try putting it in a warmer place.

    Hi Brooklyn, you would need to check with your practitioner as it depends on the condition that you have. For example, you wouldn’t take it if you have diverticulitis. As far as breasfeeding goes, that is also something you would need to ask your practitioner. I personally consumed it sometimes in my pregnancies without issue but I cant unfortunately give advice on that πŸ™
