Gareth's IvG infusions/Welcome to new members

[Guest guest]

Hi, Everyone....It's been a while but I've been so busy and haven't taken time to sit down and respond to many posts.

There's a couple of new members.....Hi ! .....my son had horrible behavioral issues (SIB, aggression, ODD) at that age and the only relief we got was from a low dose of Prozac and Risperdal combo. Then, his speech blossomed and we were able to work on communication/behavioral issues.

Today, for the first time, Gareth and I did his IvG treatment all by ourselves ....no visiting nurse to call upon to help. Gareth wanted to sit in his hammock, instead of laying in his bed, and that worked out OK. There were a couple of Moms who emailed me privately about their weekly dealings with these infusions and they were right.......I could handle it. The doc said it would take up 6- 8 weeks for us to determine if they are helping or not. At the end of the month, he will have a mess of blood work to check out his levels.

Take care, Everyone.

Margaret
