I know how badly you feel for your little boy. If this is a passing thing, Shaklee Stomach Soothing Complex will most likely help. I talked to a mom two weeks ago who crushed the tablets and gave them to her six month old with good results. I am a Shaklee Distributor in Austin and can get a bottle to you if you call or email me. ###-###-####. ____@____.com Stomach Soothing Complex is a combination of Peppermint, Ginger, Fennel, and Anise and as all Shaklee products are, it is guaranteed to your satisfaction.
Google "Shigella" fyi. Hopefully, by the time you read this, your son will be over his tummy upset. Since you have not had more trouble yourself, I think there is a good chance this will happen. If it hangs on, there is a prescription that begins with an A and I cannot remember the name of it just now. I hope you won't need it but it is good to know about. My bil had it in 1983. He is a dentist and it took a while for him to find out what he had. Eventually, he did the culture test himself and diagnosed the problem. Because of his experience, when I got sick six months later, I recognized the symptoms. My doctor sent cultures to the hospital lab twice with unsatisfactory results. Then, he grew the cultures himself and made the diagnosis. I got the name of the medicine my bil had used and it worked but I spent a miserable two months before I was finally rid of the episode. Best wishes. I hope you will let me know how your son is doing. B.
