Guest guest Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 My oldest daughter regressed at fifteen months and I am currently being inundated with new terms and words, as I attempt to do what is best for her. I recently heard about Dr. G and the hypothesis and I have to say that it fit my daughters description perfectly. Prior to her regression she could point to her body parts and say them by name, and eat with a fork and spoon (by twelve months). She is now three and can still not replicate either task or speak beyond a 15 month level. She is very bright, but stares off into space far too much. I am curious about what people here think about DAN Doctors, and whether there are any Doctors on the east coast. We are currently experiementing with the GFCF diet and while we saw good progress on it for the first two days, we have seen no sustained progress from it for the last month. My second daughter is also remarkably non verbal at 20 months and though she makes much better eye contact, I am beginning to be concerned for her as well. The doctor I am seeing at Duke is next useless. Neither my wife nor I have a history of autism in our families, both of which are quite large (20 plus cousins) all fine. So we are completely turned around as to what is causing this. Any pointers to doctors on the east coast, would be a huge help. We are seeing a guy at Duke, but he is asolutely the " nothing I can do " sort. Thanks, Dane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
