First thing I would recommend is a visit to Thoughtful House or Dr Krigsman

directly. This sounds like the typical asd GI symptoms gone too far. GI pain

is probably a big player. L

I am looking for natural treatment ideas for an HFA 8yr boy with possible

anorexia. We are In the process of running the basic ASD labs. Patient

presents with history of feeding challenges since birth and had to be given

predigested formula. Child is extremely underweight and never indicates

hunger. When asked, merely says he's not hungry or thirsty. Child will eat

small amounts of food if distracted by a novel environment. Texture

sensitivities do not appear to be a challenge and child will sometimes try

new

foods. Parents are frantic. Any ideas?

Thanks ,

I've already considered the referral. When asked, the child says he doesn't

have abdominal pain. I was wondering if he has just felt this way for so long,

that he may not recognize what he is feeling.

I am looking for natural treatment ideas for an HFA 8yr boy with possible

anorexia. We are In the process of running the basic ASD labs. Patient

presents with history of feeding challenges since birth and had to be given

predigested formula. Child is extremely underweight and never indicates

hunger. When asked, merely says he's not hungry or thirsty. Child will eat

small amounts of food if distracted by a novel environment. Texture

sensitivities do not appear to be a challenge and child will sometimes try

new

foods. Parents are frantic. Any ideas?
