Re: Need some encouraging words...

[Guest guest]

We have been with Dr. G now for almost four years after trying no meds for two.

Our child's life and our sanity is back with medication (although I wish it

weren't so). We have certainly had those days of wondering how our child would

now be without medication. We are reminded on those days when he doesn't get

his pharm refills on time. We are instantly reassured medications are a must

for his autistic disease. Every child is different of course, but every parent

wonders or feels frustrated when we are having to give our beautiful babies

medication. Good luck!

I have not been to Dr. G yet and am not sure if I will as i need to do more

research.  When you say meds, are they regular prescription meds or more natural

supplements?  My son goes to a DAN doctor presently and is doing well but I need

to address some gut stuff and yeast overgrowth which is where I am now.  My

goal is to rebuild the immune system I unwittingly compromised.

We all ask that question--but do we have any other choice but to do what we

think is best, for to do nothing would be the worst.

Dr. G said he would on meds for a few years and I wonder if that is

really true. I guess I'm having one of those days, where you wonder

how " far " your child will go as an adult and/or if the meds will

produce negative side effects over the long=term.

I don't think any of us ever wanted our children to be on meds. And

we certainly don't want them to be on them forever and I'm also

certain we've probably all questioned whether the progress would be

the same without them. For us, it's obvious that he needs them

because without them, he immediately gets sick. I *know* he needs

these things because we tried DAN and it simply didn't produce any

results. This has. Natural antivirals, antifungals, etc. did

nothing for us.

If you want to go a natural route, Dr. G is not the one for you.

Almost everything he does is Rx.

Hi ,

I don't know how much help of what I am going to say will be but I can offer

what little encouragement I can give. I also have a 4 year old high functioning

child (daughter) and she is on antivirals and antifungal, and she was getting

better for a while, but recently she has regressed. It could be from things in

her diet etc., but I too am freaking out about her future and most of all

recovery. I have an appt. with Dr. Goldberg in June so I am hoping that he will

provide her with help. All I could say is hang in there and be strong. My

daughter was recently diagnosed in January and I am doing everything possible to

find the right treatments for her. Since she started the Valtrex and Diflucan

she has gained some clarity which has been a plus. I feel like I actually have

my little girl. it wasn't until recently that she actually will come up to me

and give me a hug and tells me that she loves me. I never had that from her

before. So to me that was the ultimate gift. Anyhow, I keep a daily log on her

meals and behavior, meds, etc. That helps me to see what helps her and what

doesn't. It also helps me to keep track of any food or enviormental triggers

that may cause change in her. Well hope this helps and hang in there. God bless.
