Guest guest Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 With such a diverse group, i thought maybe someone might have some suggestions or have heard of some new information, and I know that this is NOT medical advise. A friend's child has 'minor change disease', she is doing the medical route, and the doctor has done a 'limited study' with a non dairy diet; she is wondering if anyone has any info on this disease; it could be herbal, essential oils, massage, she is willing to try anything. The little boy is 4 yrs old, and also has asthma. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sandi Watch your thoughts, they become words. Watch your words, they become actions.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2005 Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 Sandra, What IS " Minor change disease " ? I strongly suspect this is one of those cases where the psychiatric brotherhood invents a " disease " for what used to be a matter of personal temperament. One used to just Be a clumsy child. These days one Has " clumsy child syndrome " .

Nephrotic syndrome results from damage to the small blood vessels (glomeruli) in the kidneys.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it referred to kids not being able to cope with minor changes, such as being assigned a diffeent desk at school. Ien in the Kootenays ******************************* Stop. Breathe.
