Hi Marshalee,
Yes, these would be all good things to try. I can't seem to get the
kids to swallow pills yet, so I have to find liquid remedies. They have
coughed up more pills trying to swallow but still can't. I'll see if I
can get some liquid forms of the things you suggested. Yes, tea tree
oil, would be a good choice too to try on the hands. These kids can be
doing relatively normal things and big blister like spots (quarter size
or larger)will come off and leave a very raw spot for weeks. Right now
they only have smaller peeling around the finger tips but even some of
that looks like it is getting deep. I seem to forget about that product
as I use mostly H2O2 and CS for most fungal and bacterial problems.
They don't get migraines at all. I never hear them complain about
headaches.
The one most plagued with canker sores seems to eat pretty healthy lots
of fruit and veggies. I'm wondering if it is the fruits that bring them
on as he just had a new one pop out yeasterday and he has been eating a
fair amount of grapefruit and grapes this past day or so. Maybe some of
the fruit is too acidic for his system. The last 2 days he has also
been complaining of a very sore back. He is a very tall boy for his age
and seems to have fast growth spurts and has complained about leg pains
before.
They both of them have had the red sandpaper type skin every year right
around christmas. The very first year that the kids had this. I was
so worried that it maybe measles and did not want to go home for
christmas and give it to all the rest. The kid never actually got
sick. But it has happened in various forms every year since. This past
winter, besides the rough dry bumpy skin, the buttocks area of the boy
had broken out in a pimple like dry rash. Very sore and we suspected
clothes washing detergent, but it seemed that the CS seemed to relieve
the pimples even though the red rash does not seem to want to clear up.
It has faded when the weather got a little nicer but each time it snows
the rash seems to come back. Like I said I am down to mostly washing
the clothes with just tiny amounts of soap that he seems to tolerate and
triple rinsing them but the rash seems to persist.
I have been putting moisturizing cream (glaxal base) for sensative skin
and that makes it feel better but that rash does not let up.
I tried Keri bath oil to see if the oil would help the dry skin and that
seemed to exasperate it. Not winning with much I do. The kids love the
CS tho they are always asking for it for any thing that hurts. It
really seems to take pain away.

Hmm, the bumps sound like what I had as a kid. Solution: Vitamin A.
That helps a multitude of problems, your kids have many of them.
Vitamin E goes along with it.
Do they get migraines or headaches in general?
The hair loss shows a need for zinc, the canker sores need vitamin C.
Melaleuca oil (tea tree oil) is great for the pain of those. (I know!)
Email me and I`ll give you some more.
