Great news!!!!! Good luck and let us know how it goes!

[Guest guest]

Wow! What great news. Not only are you seeing someone top notch,

you are getting in quickly! It gets so frustrating when you have to

wait several weeks just for a 15 minute appointment!

You should go buy a lottery ticket today in case the luck

continues

8 long wks! This will help get the ball rolling faster. I'm glad it

worked out for you

All the best! It will be nice to have somewhere to go again and it sounds as

though they will work with you and your special needs. It looks like all

thanks kathe!! i am pretty excited about it. i already know everyone but 2

people and we get along great. i just hope they do not get me in trouble by

socializing too much!! it'll take longer for my car to warm up then to drive

there!! it's only 3 degrees this morning!! i just have to do this. i do not

want to lose my home. kathy in il

[Guest guest]

debs i am glad to see you post but sorry to hear of the long journey you have

had. that will be cool if they can fix the door and you are able to stay. i

am excited and scared about the job. i started with a little stuffy nose sore

throat yesterday, i know my immune sysytem is still compromised. but since it

is a podiatrist maybe the patients won't be sick. all i can do is try. if i

can't, at least i tried. it's only like 4hours a day. it'll fly by. she said

she'd let me get my hands on both billing and collections. (yeah i get paid

to call up insurance companies and give them crap!!!!) send out bills, set up

payments. i'm supposed to go out with a friend tonight. he said we'd

celebrate. (whatever that means!!) kathy in il

[Guest guest]

thanks lynn, time for me to try and move on!! i hope i will not let them

down. kathy in il

[Guest guest]

thanks alan, he seems like a nice guy who tries to help people. money or not.

that is what i like about him. kathy in il

[Guest guest]

now don't think that my life is just peachy now!! i had a flat tire. my son

has the cellphone with roadside assistance. he was out at his girlfriends

house. her dad is doing his brakes and rotors. so i called one of his

friends who came over and changed my tire. had my other friend stop by on her

way to work to drop off my movie rentals, so i wouldn't have to pay another

day. the tire place is closed today. but hopefully it will be done with no

problems tomorrow. kathy in il

That is simply Outstanding. I am so happy for you and your family. The

advice with regards to timing the probiotics after yeast treatment is great.

We were using probiotics, but Dr. Goldberg told us to stop during the

Nizoral treatment. We too saw immediate high fever and immediate illness,

ear infections/regression. I stopped the Nizoral and refused to do it again.

Dr. Goldberg said the probiotics would be a waste, and that the pectin and

FOS was bad for our son. Error in judgment on our parts to have listened to

him. Thank you again for sharing the details. Our son too can't handle

strawberry's well, and OJ is still out of the question. Congratulations

again.

Good News!!!

> I sent this to a few people like Hope and on these boards Tuesday

but thought I'd share with all who I've read and helped me in my journey

with .....Started at 15 month MMR, diagnosed at 18 months ASD, is now

27 months...

>

> I have to share what we have been going through this last month with

. He was put on Diflucan for yeast and after 7 days had a 24 hour fever

(his first ever) he had improved immensely til then but then started

regressing bad. He was almost psychotic at times and biting, hitting

stimming if you moved the wrong or even right way it was horrible and I

thought my son and daughter in law would go out of their minds. She was

constantly in tears and he broke down a couple times and was ready to put

him on respidol SP?? After finishing the diflucan and more stimming,

headbanging and rages they saw their Dr and she found double ear infections

and out him on the famous pink amoxicillan and double probiotics. It seems

when treating for yeast you should always give probiotics to replenish the

good and bad that is depleted and you should always give then 2-3 hours

" after " the diflucan or antibiotic or all your doing is giving the

antibiotic more to kill. Since he had depleted sodiu!

> m on his very first yeast battle we also gave him a pinch of baking soda

daily to replenish the electrolytes. One week ago last Friday we tried GABA

and my son gave him an Epsom salt cream massage. It helped and within two

days he was finally coming back but still touchy but that Sunday at my

granddaughter's college graduation party he was great, more verbal, more

connected and was I surprised when he grabbed a piece of watermelon and a

strawberry and ate it...I was waiting for meltdown and nothing happened,

then he had some raspberries and blueberries and nothing happened. This

child has been on only pear and golden delicious apples due to phenol/amine

reactions for 5 mos and now he ate all that and nothing happened...first

milestone !! They took him back to the DR. last Monday to check the ears and

they were clear but the Dr. wanted them to see a friend of his who is a top

Pediatric Neurologist at The Cleveland Clinic because he still felt we were

missing something with !

> . The Neuro Dr.'s office called that Wednesday and they had a ca

> ncellation and could they bring him in which they did. The Neurologist

spent almost 2 hours with and took his history and interacted with

in play. He says there is something wrong but feels that with what

we've done will outgrow this and doesn't fit 2 of the 3 pillars of

autism. I don't know whether he went through a " healing crisis " or what but

he has steadily been improving and is like a little sponge...everything has

a name and he wants to know what it is and repeats it, he can count to 20,

knows all the letters of the alphabet and all his colors plus his shapes. It

was all in there waiting to come out !!! he still has pronunciation problems

with some things and has his own word for some things ...like yellow is

always yum. He was here yesterday for a few hours and was amazing , I have a

container of play food that he had to have me help him name, and a small

piano that he would usually just bang and then and my daughter in law went

from one key to anoth!

> er end to end and he did it and and then came back one key at a time. I

was in the backyard where I have pinwheels that he always played with for

hours but not yesterday, he would go behind the pool and sneak out and

surprise me and then run to me for me to catch him up and kiss him with a

big " Hi " Tonight he was here again and for the first time ever he pointed to

the title of a Blue's Clue's book and pointed to each letter and named it

and did the same on the button that says MODE on my exercise bike, and then

in the backyard I have a garden stone my granddaughter made me with glass

beads imbedded in it and he pointed to each bead and counted them. It was a

first and God blessed me in letting me be a part of it. I give credit to the

enzymes, the semi GFCF and SCD diet, very few supplements, Epsom salt baths

and creams and baking soda to replenish electrolytes and help digestion, the

yeast treatments and the GABA.... and can't rule out the Knesciology muscle

testing and c!

, except for a few months following his MMR, I think due to early

intervention with diet and researching constantly these last 8 months. This

new Dr wants to find the answer for what has been going through and

that's the kind of Dr. we all need and didn't rule out the catalyst was the

MMR vaccination with live viruses .He was also not crazy about the Primetime

Live piece. He is scheduled tomorrow for an MRI to see if there may be

myelin delay which mimics autism or to see if there is an inflammation or

infection, my fingers are crossed and my prayers said that he won't regress

from it for awhile but we're willing to take that chance to have some

answers,.....Had to share our good news...Take care....Shirley

> The MRI was yesterday and he came through it great and no regression. They

used Chlorhydate ? as a sedative and had wobblely legs for a while but was

playing with his fridge phonics last night. He also had about 4 bm's in 2

hours and the orange color of the sedative was in them but he was fine.

Dear friends,

I had my Quant-PCR blood draw on 5/1/08 and got the results today. I'm

still PCRU--yep, a big zero!!! I'm excited.

My CT-scans for my kidney cancer is scheduled for 5/27--doubt if I get good

Wishing good blood draws for everyone.
