<< My younger son has a severe peanut allergy - anaphylactic. His

symptoms - asthma, eczema, etc. - appear to go hand in hand with

those of autism and PDD...

Any thoughts?? >>

Yes, this is very common with children who have autism, but not all children.

It definitely points to the immune system being compromised, the Gut/brain

reaction. Clean up the gut and diet and things will change.

Diet, supplements, environment, life style, and conservative use of

antibotics & vaccines will improve the immune system.

You might want to start reading up on this subject there are tons of

books out there. One comes to mind, by Doris Rapp " Is this your Child? "

The GFCF diet, using the good oils to clean up the eczema and help

the asthma.

hi ,

Yes - see post a few lines down ..

so many of our kids seem to have allergies which seems to be an

indictor of compromised immune response . This means that they are

unable to fight off the enviromental/viral assaults they are exposed

to.

As a baby Charlie had eczema and a mild touch of asthma but that was

all .

Charlie had no food intolerances until his viral assault. He ate a

perfectly healthy full balanced diet until his chicken pox and MMR

after which it was his reducing food choices that led me to realise

that there was a link with his increasing autistic features and his

sudden loss of speech . ( cheerios , chicken nuggets , baby yogurts ,

pasta and cheese, milk , apple juice and ribena.)

The food " intolerance " is not the conventional one but a result of

the damage done to his gut by the measles virus whereby gluten ,

casein and additives now freak him out ( to be technical !!) .

Oddly enough though , once I realised I had to remove gluten and

casein and did so ( to help with his autism and his loosish bowels )

his eczema and asthma disappeared - never to return !!

Regards

Deborah

For what it's worth, Wiley has true allergies to peanut butter, eggs, and

soy, and a number of other things that aren't as severe, like oatmeal and

apples. Hives, breathing problems, rashes, etc. I go into anaphylactic

shock over fish, chicken, and turkey. (Steaks for me!) We are a ridiculous

household here when it comes to dietary differences. If my husband touches

red meat, he gets totally fat, if I touch chicken, I go into shock, Wiley

can't chew either, and falls apart at the sight of protein alternatives like

beans and peanut butter and tofu. Very pricey trips to the grocery

store...I am a Stop and Shop dream come true...

Deborah,

When Wiley was rast tested at about a year and a half of age, he tested

allergic to every food actively in his diet. The only things he didn't test

allergic to were foods he had not yet eaten.

About the immune system, though, I have a question. Wiley was tested for

immunodeficiency and he was found to have a normal amount of immunoglobulins

or whatever so he has no deficiency there - is this the right way to find

out or can an immune system be compromised without showing up in standard

testing?

Thanks for any info if you have any!

, with the start of the 1990's, research for neuro diseases got

into high gear. Some organizations received alot of funding, some

diseases - look what MJ Fox has done for Parkinson's. Look at the

strides in ALS. And, girlfriend, don't forget how CMT history was made

last October with NT-3!

There are so many more biotech companies making synthetic drugs -

Rheumatoid Arthritis got a great boost this way. Also biotech companies

have the $ to hire researchers to work in labs and get them something

that will make a profit.

I also know patient groups like ALS and MS have lobbied their

congresspersons and as the rates of incidence of these neuro diseases

get higher, priority gets moved up. I think the oldest piece of research

on CMT I have found goes back to 1968 - when it was still called

Peroneal Muscle Atrophy. ~ Gretchen

coming out. They are curious to know how we refer to the time just

before an IV. I've heard it called things such as, " crash " , " down

it?

Hi Becky.

One way to get lots of info is going to Autism Speaks web site at www.autismspeaks.org for everything from a video glossary for terms, First 100 days Kits for newly diagnosed families, and research to local info about what is going on in your state.

Let me know if I can help in any way,

Take care,

Becky --

I actually researched more BEFORE the diagnosis for my son. My Pediatrician was just saying he had a speech delay but I knew it was much more than that. So, every spare moment (late at night after working all day), I googled. To steal a phrase from McCarthy's book, I got a degree from the University of Google. Every night my teenager would come home and say "here she goes again researching the A word." For some background on my family, I have a 3 year old son who was diagnosed with Autism ONE month ago today and a 19 year old daughter who has been blessed with good health.

I went to You-Tube and watched videos to see if the diagnosed autistic children acted like my son and I watched clips of Rain Man because I recall the character was said to be autistic. I asked every person who was close to my son -- babysitter, grandparents, my friends -- if they thought Tyler was "different". I basically conducted interviews with them as if I was a reporter. I kept a journal in which I recorded the way he acted and things he did that concerned and confused me. Once it was evident to me what was wrong with my son, I went to the Library, the online book store and the half price book store and brought home lots of books on the subject.

Then, I TOLD my pediatrician that I needed prescriptions and referrals for the professionals, i.e., therapists, Behavioral Pediatrician, etc.

After the diagnosis, I found out about this group and also started talking to the other parents in the waiting room. Additional great resources I found after the diagnosis were the Therapists and Social Worker from Akron Childrens Hospital.

I hope this helps!

I would still like to find a group that meets in person. I believe there is one at Akron Childrens but I have not gotten the details yet. Does this group meet in person? I am just new to a group so I don't know much about them. I really need to talk to other Mothers with children facing the challenges similiar to ours.

We have formed a team for the Autism Speaks fundraiser, Walk Now for Autism so we can help raise funds for the cure and also meet people for more support and networking.

Sorry for the long email. There is so much to say when it comes to Autism.

The Autism Society of Greater Cleveland meets the first Tuesday of

every month in Brecksville. Depending on where you live, there are

other Autism Society chapters in Akron and Lorain County. Greater

Cleveland Asperger Support meets the second Wednesday every other month

with a speaker, usually in Independence, and in off months for casual

conversation at local eateries. There's a related group in Akron for

parents of Asperger kids called Aspies that meets at Akron Hospital.

If you want contact information for any or all, let me know.

Sometimes, school districts have parent support meetings which can be

very convenient, but they usually cover a range of disabilities. There

are groups like this in Rocky River, Medina, Euclid I think.

Awesome! Thank you for your quick response. Brecksville is about 25 minutes away -- not too bad. Would love contact info for ASGC. My child does not have asbergers although the Dev. & Behavioral Pediatrician said that he will resemble the traits and characteristics of aspies so I should read information about that too. Would that group be appropriate to participate in as well because I would be interested to join in.

It would be great of there is a autism group in akron. I can research further. Tyler will join the Integrated Pre-school this school year so I will keep my eyes open for support jmeetings there if they exist. I never even thought of that being a possibility.

Basically, I will take contact information for anything you have to share with me. I just want to learn more and gain as much support as possible. This is very challenging!

Hi Pam,

Let me know if you would like to talk in person and I can help you navigate the maze and support you and your family. I can also connect you with a local family who may be able to help with more specifics that you are dealing with as the mom of a newly diagnosed teenager, In addition, if you go to www.autismspeaks.org you can get lots of info on what we are doing locally and nationally. If you click on the video glossary you can look up definitions and info you may find useful.

Take care,

Shari,

Thanks so much for your response. I would like to talk to you; however, if it's o.k., can I call you sometime next week. It will be a lot easier to talk once the kids get back in school.

Just doing some research for work and would love to hear your responses (you all are my "experts").When my son was first diagnosed with autism/hyperlexia I searched online for my info and for my support. These groups online have been my "support" for the last five years - you have all helped me with info, places to go, resources, support, etc.The question for you is:How did YOU find support for you, your child(ren) and your family after your child (grandchild, nephew, etc.) was diagnosed? Did you Google key words, did you ask your doctor, what? I know we're all busy but if you could just give me a quick response, I'd really appreciate it!Thanks to all!Becky------------ --------- --------- ------*** Additional Info:Above all else; always remember that love makes the world a brighter and nicer place! May
