Guest guest Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 Hi All, I was able to buy the Efalex at the local GNC, but have not received the ProEFA yet--sent away for it. How did you get your son to take the tablet? Tried hiding it in Hawain punch and apple juice but he wouldn't go near it. The people I ordered the ProEFA from assured me that it does not have a fishy taste and is easier to hide in juice, OY! Adam's speech is so delayed and he will be 4 in April...I am so worried. Nina When liam started the Efalex he was only saying mama , dada and bebe (for baby)of course dat, and bop,bop. He did also make some animal sounds. Those were approximations. I remember somewhere in the beginning of him starting efalex he said dragon when Dragon Tales came on. He started to blow better and stop drooling. Liam mouthed everything and drooled continually. I had a set of mouth toys for him just so he could get the stimulation he needed with appropriate toys. Now seven and a half months later I am amazed. I now have new wonders about how far he will go. His articulation is a big concern and I wonder about this SLI. I still continue to see improvement though and am sooo thankful for that. I still have days when I worry, worry worry about his future. I love to read about Khalid, s son and hope Liam future can be as bright as his. I believe Liam has " pure apraxia " as he is very coordinated and shows no other problems. He is a wonderful easy going little guy who rolls with the punches. I believe this will help him get where he wants to go in life. He never ceases to amaze me. I have run on far too long. THanks for listening. If you have any other questions I can help you with please feel free to ask. The hardest part about starting the EFA's is having patience.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 try squeezing it out into apple sauce and mixing it in. It works pretty well for my 2.4 year old stacey >Hi All, >I was able to buy the Efalex at the local GNC, but have not received the ProEFA yet--sent away for it.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2002 Report Share Posted January 21, 2002 Hi , I have been reading messages posted on this site for quite a while now but have not contributed yet. My little boy is 31/2 and has no words. He seems to have verbal and motor apraxia. We have been going to speech therapy for 2 years now. My question is in regards to pro-efa and effalex. Do you give both to your child and if so, what dosage. Also where do you get the pro-efa from? Thanks, Anne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
