Biomedical treatment, when does it start working?

[Guest guest]

Hi allI'm new to this group and have just started biomedical treatment with my son who has just turned 5 and has had about 3 months of ABA (we have recently started that as well). We have managed wonders with behaviour change via ABA and I'm wondering when it is that you see significant effects from starting biomedical. We read about kids who suddenly start coming out with hundreds of words or dramatically improving their social skills. Although I know a lot of it is biased the only improvements I've seen so far are his skin has got better and he is less hyper active, more focused. He is also saying more and manding more but this is also due to advice on how to get him to speak from ABA consultant. He is on his 3rd week into the biomedical treatment, GFCF diet, in addition soya free, sugar free, preservatives, E nos, artificial flavourings free. I'm baking and cooking from scratch a lot, trial and error with recipes. He went very weak and subdued the first few days and looked extremely tired, sleeping a lot through the day, then perked up and seems to be coping really well... The nutricionist mentioned die off and said it's normal. He hasn't started supplements, or taken any antibiotics or anti fungal medication or done any cheelation related treatment yet. His consultant wants to see him mid june to do all the testing after he has had a few weeks on the diet. He said he would be a different child in June when we see him... He was primarily observed as having low immune system, massive tonsils, slow digestive system and abnormal skin texture and tone. Any experiences would be useful.

Does anyone have experience with clay baths?

What products do you use, and from where?

Can it be done together with chelation?

Won't effect chelation, I never tried it as too worried about my drains

clogging, my house is extended in every direction and blockages would mean

digging up floors

My son gets VERY wet the week after DMSA/ALA, but is now refusing nappies

saying they make him feel like a baby. Even with a pullup the mattress is

getting soaked and the smell in the room unbearable. I keep buying plastic

mattress protectors and they keep tearing, he is 10 and does jump around his

bed so understandable. Any good ideas?? What do you do for your children?

When my son used to wet the bed, I had the same problem with mattress

protectors tearing, so in the end I bought a waterproof mattress, It was

secondhand, which I thought might mean it was a bit less toxic, and only

cost £10 from eBay.

Not cheap but very effective and cheaper than new mattress
