Biotinidase Defficeincy

I took Liam to the doctor today. We retested him for RSV since he's been so stuffy. He is negative and his lungs sound clear so we are just going to continue to suction his nose, use vicks and the humidifier. He also got his second round of centages to help protect him from RSV. Liam 2nd biotinidase defficiency test came back positive for a medium case so we just continue to give him the biotin twice a day everyday for the rest of his life. The biotin is what helps break food down so you can use it properly. Without the biotin Liam would vommit, continue to be failure to thrive, it could cause seizures as well as heart attacks and eventually he would die from lack of nutrients. Its amazing that this one little pill prevents that, just a simple vitamin. Biotinidase defficiency is rare, both parents have to be carriers for the child to have it. Because Liam has this we will have to get Lanie checked too. It is possible that she has a partial defficiency
and that it isnt yet causing problems.
