Re: Question for - (personal experiences with Neuroimmune troubles)

[Guest guest]

I also wanted to add something...

Someone had asked me if I had ever been diagnosed with autism or

anything else?

So I wanted to put my response here as well...

" 'I' myself have never been diagnosed with 'autism' per-se, so I

can't say definitively. However I've never really seen a doctor who

specialized in Autism growing up to ever be evaluated for it.

What I can say definitively was after getting the NeuoSPECT scan they

did distinguish what they were fairly certain was a neuroimmunological

process taking place. I'm on the protocol working with a Neuroimmune

doctor out of Texas.

As an ADULT they did diagnose me with bipolar II, OCD, depression,

ADHD, Chronic Fatigue/Neuroimmune disorder, Multiple Chemical

Sensitivities. (As a child I mainly had OCD, ADHD, and anxiety and

some depression- after getting sick with a virus in 2002 things

worsened and my diagnoses expanded.)

'If' the Neuroimmune disorder is a strong predictor of Autism-type

disorders then I would likely say these illnesses are probably all

affiliated with each other. I've noticed having had some of the

symptoms I've seen/heard discussed with Autism children growing up

however (looking back). I would have to be classified as 'high

functioning' autistic if I did have some spectrum of autism. Oddly

enough I had periods growing up where I was in the special-education

classes, and had to even be put back in third grade... all the way to

getting straight A's and being a top performing student. It was quite

odd how my performance would fluctuate like that. I was well aware I

was 'odd' growing up but I never knew 'why' I was so different from

all the other children and why I felt so 'strange' most all of the

time. I simply 'knew' I didn't feel right or well on the inside. I

was well aware that I was ill in some form- but I didn't understand

what it was, nor what was going on inside of me. I was usually doing

something to try to urge my mother to take me to the doctor or get me

help because I didn't feel well nor 'right.' I was always looking for

answers- and would simply baffle the doctors, counselors or

psychiatrists.

I hope this helps other people.

Thank you for sharing , this was very helpful and encouraging, because it

makes me feel like I am on the right track with my daughter. She is seeing Dr.

(I assume that's your doc?)
