Guest guest Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 , My son has been on the protocal with Dr. G for 6 years now. But I didn't realize that there was a doctor right here in Denver?? We live in Broomfield, CO. Who is the doctor? Does he work with Dr. G?

After a year and a half of using Valtrex--which brought down my son's HHV6 count significantly--we still weren't sure we were seeing a benefit/improvement in his behavior. So, we decided to take a break and have more bloodwork done in six months to see if the count goes back up. > > My son has been on an SSRI (Paxil, Zoloft, Prozac, Lexapro, and back to Prozac) since he was five. He's now twelve. All the SSRIs have helped him with perseveration and " getting stuck.

His doctor is suggesting we give Celexa a try, but I know very little about it. > > My son has an Asperger Syndrome with comorbid ADHD diagnosis. > > Hope this helps explain our situation. > > Regards, > > Re: Anybody have experience with Celexa? > > > > - > > are you seeing a doctor, too?
