Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 Are you chelating your son? How long has he had this aggressive behavior? Is it sudden or has he always been this way? Have you tried taurine and/or magnesium to calm him down? It sounds like he's still reacting to something in his diet or suffering from gut bugs. Have you had him tested for yeast to see which antifungal will work best. What supplements are you giving him? If you give us a little more information, I'm sure someone can help.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 Just a shot at this....are you corn-free, too? My son becomes very hyper and aggressive with corn products. He has been corn free for about 1-1/2 yrs, along with GF/CF. But, when he has a slip up with corn..........it's not pretty. Good luck with this, our kids are quite the challenge when it comes to figuring out their behaviors or what might be triggering a behavior. Elsie (in TX) [ ] aggressive behavior Dear listmates. I am at my wits end. My son has extremely violent tantrums when denied something he really wants.. On some occassions it can be something he only partially wants. He hits, scratches, and falls onto the floor and will not get himself up . He is a big kid for his age and he is almost impossible to control. Did I mention my son is almost four? I would really appreciate any type of response. My son has been on a gfcf diet for about a year now. He has been phenol free for about six months. He can withstand caramel and annato coloring but nothing else. Also, he has been taking grisiofulvin for about three days now. He has taken nystatin for a month and had no significant change in behavior. Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 We are not chelating him yet. We have an appointment for Dr. AMy in April. He has had this aggressive behavior for about four months. We noticed some yeast infection earlier this past summer so we obained a prescription for grisiofulvin . It worked wonders . However, Our doctor would not refill the prescription. Then about four months ago we went to this very bad aggression. We tried nystatin but did not have any significant hange. Now we are trying grisiofulvin again to see if it may work for him.. He did not have these reactions until we dropped his dad off at work and the speech therapist could not make his appointment We have not tried these (taurine magnesium )because we did not know about them.To: < > Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2001 8:32 PM Subject: Re: [ ] aggressive behavior > Are you chelating your son?

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 Hi, You know, me and my son are at the 5th round of chelation and last night I was kind of trying to draw a line... to see what changes I had so far. And I said to myself that definitely his behavior improved a lot. He is now not just *calmer*. He is calm! I can even yell at him now if I have a reason. He looks into my eyes and I can't believe the fact that he's not having a tantrum anymore. This is the biggest change so far and sure, I was impressed remembering how Denis was only a month ago, comparing with the new person I have now. But my shock came when I've seen your message. Because it made me realize that actually Denis' change was bigger than I was remembering. You described my son a month ago in that message. I am really sorry you have problems of this kind. I know how this behavior can make you little by little feel like you're losing your mind, and how discouraging it is when no matter what you try, is not working I don't know if you started chelation yet. Maybe you should... For sure you should try the Epsom salts if you haven't yet. Or maybe try giving him some calcium. Also, as Elsie said, corn can " give " really aggressive behaviors. Maybe somebody else is giving him foods that he shouldn't eat? Is this possible? Also... it is something about Nistatin... I know that when I take it it makes me... aggressive. I have a very hard time trying to control my temper. I know I exaggerate, but I can't control it. I really feel like LOL hitting my head against some wall I am not joking! This is exactly what I feel. And the fact that I am an adult doesn't help much. So maybe you should stop the Nistatin... at least for a while... I am really sorry about not being able to help much. I really hope your son will feel better soon. Please let us know more... and if anything works. Valentina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Dear Kencol: Did you have a culture indicating a susceptible organism to give griseofulvin for your child? I've heard of some bad effects of this drug, and do not consider it nearly as safe as diflucan. It is a heavy-duty drug and not to be used lightly especially without identifying the organism and without following closely with blood counts and liver status. In the PDR it states specifically that it is not effective in Candidiasis. If I were you I would get a culture to find out what is going on in your child's gut and if it is yeast, give the appropriate medication. Jaquelyn [ ] aggressive behavior > Dear listmates.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 There is a new product for yeast and other beasties out from Chisolm labs. I don't know much about it other than the fact that people had heard good things about it and were eagerly awaiting its release. One woman on another list tried it and had great results with her son the first week. So far, so good. As with any new product though, we proceed with caution.

Then about four months ago we went to this very bad > aggression. I've never heard of grisiofulvin but assume it's an anti-fungal treatment from your description? If so, you might want to check into side effects especially it's possible affect on the liver. Some anti-fungals can be really tough on the liver but you don't see obvious negative effects right away until the liver gets weaker and can't filter out toxins as well. If you gave him the drug in the summer and around September he began having the tantrums, it could be related. Then again it " it worked wonders " means he had a very bad yeast infestation perhaps the worsening is due to yeast flare-up. Whenever I see a worsening of symptoms I always check possible triggers in all areas: environmental (anything sprayed recently or anything new brought into the house the child could be reacting to), allergies (foods, inhalants or chemicals), nutritional (zinc deficiency can cause weird volatility and trantrums), heavy metals or other toxic load (recent vaccine? exposure in area?), emotional/stress (school situation, way people are reacting to him, more expectations, harder work schedule, etc), benefit to actions (does he get something from tantruming -- sometimes a big negative reaction can even be rewarding to our kiddos).

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2002 Report Share Posted November 16, 2002 , My 3 yr old son is GF/CF since July. He is not normally agressive, however when the yeast overgrowth flares up, it is unbelievable how he begins to act. Once he has been on Ketaconazole for a week or so, he calms back down. They can actually do a stool sample, send it to the lab, and the lab will try different treatments on the yeast in the stool and let you know which treatment worked the best. Our son takes Probiotic capsules and the medicine and we try to eliminate most sugars. Hope this helps.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2003 Report Share Posted June 30, 2003 Jill, What you described in your son is exactly what we are seeing in our pre-schooler. He has already kicked a teacher and almost threw her jaw out when he threw his head back during a tantrum. You mentioned your son screamed very loudly and our son does that, sometimes unexpectedly. He has also made inarticulate noises when he was frustrated at school. I'm so glad that your son has made progress w/ behavior modification and medication. I'm noting it for future reference. Thanks so much for sharing your experience. It is really encouraging to me. We are so anxious for therapy to start. Next week he will start to see an OT twice a week. School district is going to work on sensory issues and said they can recommend him for testing (AS). It's reassuring to hear that progress can be made with therapies!

Regards Vince Vince Winterling Vineland, NJ Aggressive behavior Hi, I'm , new to the site. My son, Samson, is 11 years old and has Aspergers and ADHD. We're having a problem with aggressiveness. He is enrolled in a YMCA day camp this summer, and has been suspended for hitting anither child. This was a problem last school year, too. This year he starts a new school, and I'm really worried about this behavior. I'm afraid he'll be in trouble all the time and be labeled a bully again this year. I really want him to have a fresh start this school year, without any pre-concieved notions about him. I am concerend about him getting suspended from school (again), and just really don't know what to do. If anyone has had this problem, or can offer any advice, I would really appreciate it. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 I’m a professional and I work with tough kids and do functional assessments and design plans for kids. I’ve been doing it for a number of years and am fortunate to have been trained by the best. The secret is understanding what the kids want and what motivates the acting out. Once you understand the idea of a functional assessment (i.e., function over form), you’ll be able to better assist your grandson. There are numerous sites on the web that describe the FBA process. The University of South Florida has a site, as does University of Kansas, SUNY, Stoney Brook, University of Oregon is good too. If you get some basic understanding of the process even though you might not be able to do it, you’ll be able to interview a prospective professional who might be able to help you.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Dear Vince, Thanks for the response. However, with an autistic child you sometimes don't know what they want or what causes the behavior. That is the frustration. We try to redirect him but it doesn't work with him.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Hi. We have been on nids since April. For the most part we are doing better, but recently my 5 year old son (aidan) has been displaying aggressive behavior. We are on acyclovir (no change in hhv titers with valtrex or famvir) and increased paxil to 5 mg about 3 weeks ago. He only displays really bad behavior toward his 3 year old sister and dad. Never me. Have told Goldberg about it but ge says continue meds - prob bc he has made some speech and eye contact improvement. But he also hits his teacher when it's time to go (I think he likes school). We have tried behavioral intervention, time outs - where he is separated from the rest of us; also taking away his favorite toys, etc. Not sure if it's the allergies or something he's eating. Not too much has changed besides increased paxil dose. It's to the point I don't want him to be alone with sister. And dad is frustrated he's aggressive for no reason. Help please!!

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 One problem that comes with their bodies getting healthier is that sometimes they pick up where they left off. The fact that your son has more eye contact and speech is improving means something good is going on in his brain. How old was your son when he started exhibiting symptoms of autism? If he was two when he started to deteriorate and become autistic? If so he will start developing like a two year old which doesn't look so good at age 5. All kids need to go through the same stages of development. When our kids do at 5 what other kids do at two; it can seem like a behavior issue but he is really just starting to develop again. Sometimes new behavior problems are actually a sign of getting better. Your son is actually starting to care about his surroundings. That doesn't mean you let him get away with stuff. The worst time of development with autistic and normal kids is when they know what they want but can't talk yet. They are so frustrated at this time. Before he was unaware of what was going on around him. Not so anymore. Think about how it would feel if you see a candy bar and want it and can't get it or tell anyone to give it to you. Especially if it is chocolate. That would kill me. Just try to stay calm and praise him when he is doing something right. Ignore the negative behavior as much as possible ( easier said than done). If he is misbehaving go to another room to withdraw your attention. They want our attention more than anything. I remember locking myself in my room and not coming out until he was calm. He of course was banging on the door and screaming. Following this post is an an article on the top ten things to know to parent your child. And when you get really crazy, call me. I get it. Marcia 805 497-8202 Top Ten Rules for Parenting Your Child by Marcia Hinds 10. Start acting like your kids are normal. Don't give up and don't accept their condition. Treat them like they understand everything you say. Don't stop talking to them even though they give you no indication one way or another that they understand you. (They do, even though they don't respond appropriately or give you eye contact.) 9. Never talk negatively about them in front of others even if you think they can't hear you. Remember many have supersonic hearing until their immune systems are regulated. Even though we are all tired and overtaxed, they need to know their parents believe in them and would do anything to help them. 8. Don't avoid stressful situations or meltdowns--they have to follow the same rules as the rest of the world. When they do meltdown (and we all know they will) don't make excuses for them. It is embarrassing, but get over it. Always do what is best for your child and learn to not worry about what other people think. (Most people don't understand our situation and think we are horrible parents anyway. Some are convinced our kids are just spoiled and out of control.) 7. Learn to ignore what they are doing wrong and praise or reward what they do correctly. I know this is difficult with our kids, because most of what they do is inappropriate. But find that one thing they do right during the course of the day. It may be hard to find, but keep looking. As far as eliminating undesirable behaviors, don't try to fix everything at once. Pick the one thing they do that drives you out of your mind and only work on eliminating that behavior. When that is mastered, pick another. 6. Consistency and positive reinforcement are key. Reinforcement must be immediate for all kids, especially children. They can't be rewarded at the end of the day or given a prize at the end of a good week. (A long time ago Maurice told me to use what they love to reward. That was great advice. For my child physical things were difficult (catching a ball, walking, skipping etc. We would set up an obstacle course and at the end of the course there was a computer game. My kid loved anything with computers. The computer was one of his main therapists. He only played educational games, no mindless drivel.) 5. Don't get so engrossed in the medical care, therapy and ABA that you forget they are kids. Kids need to go to the park and be hugged by mom and dad. Sometimes when it would all get to be too much, we would stop therapy and take a vacation for a week. We would just have fun together and I could be mommy instead of the lead therapist. 4. When you are at the end of your rope, feel that there is no hope, and have trouble continuing, fake it. When I was depressed and had terrible thoughts, I would crank on the rock and roll and the entire family would start dancing around the house. Even though I didn't feel it, eventually I did feel better when I faked it. 3. Listen to all the experts, but trust your gut. No one knows your child like you do. You live this every day. When a doctor told me I shouldn't have my son's tonsils out, I did it anyway. After that, his constant strep was gone and he wasn't sick all the time anymore. 2. Stop wasting time being mad that you have to teach your child what every two-year-old learns easily and naturally. Stop feeling sad for yourself and your child. You don't have time for that. There is too much work to be done. 1. And most importantly, you need to be more stubborn than they are!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I agree with Marcia that a lot of times, really bad behavior starts coming out when these kids start 'waking up'. That increased eye contact is key here. If you can ride this out a month, you may find it improves. There are two aggression triggers for my son that over-ride behavioral issues, and they are very consistent: allergy meds, especially zyrtec (and least claritin but if daily, it'll get him too), and soy protein, especially soy lecithen. With the allergy meds, the aggression doesn't get fully out-of-control until he's been on it a month to 6 weeks (when we've long forgotten that we started a new med), and the soy lecithen doesn't show up until a couple of weeks of eating it daily, then it takes exactly 5 days to get out of his system. (Soy proteins only - soybean oil is fine because it doesn't have protein). We go thru the soy mistake over and over - at least yearly, because I forget when things are going well and it builds up gradually. It is only when life gets soooo bad and he's unhappy and angry every minute of the day, and I can't think straight from how awful life has become, and it will suddenly dawn on me. We will have allowed an occasional snack w/soy lecithen in it, and he will have managed to get that snack up to daily and start self-restricting to those foods. But you can mark a calendar for when it's going to be all better after pulling it out. I mention the food because the soy really does get a lot of kids and makes them very oppositional, and it is not too terribly hard to pull it out for a week to see if it makes a difference (it was actually traumatic to do it for us lol but in retrospect his suffering was so much worse than losing a couple of foods, and I started baking cookies he loves and rice krispie treats to make up for it while he went thru it). However, if it IS the kind of food reaction I'm talking about, then it is usually all day and there is little to no happiness  at all - joy is practically non-existent when my son is in this state. Since your son isn't attacking you as well, I suspect it's more behavioral.  It can always help to keep and food and day log to figure out triggers, but lecithen is in so many purchased things that it's hard to keep it out for 5 full days without doing it specifically. But I made a lot of mistakes early on trying to blame a lot of behaviors on foods when some of it was just normal, so regardless, you have to treat it like a behavior while just keeping eyes wide open. Try to get ahold of the book " Siblings without rivalry " real quick. When my son had a lot of aggression towards my littlest one, I was very angry about it, and a lot of my responses to the aggression made the problems worse and damaged their relationship, and we're still working on repairing that damage today. I also taught my youngest son to be a 'victim' by the way I reacted. What makes sense when you're trying to protect your youngest child may not help overall. So please please don't respond with anger, and don't let the youngest believe that he or she is helpless. Be very very calm and positive when you tell them we don't act that way or hurt people. Then, try to figure out what the sibling is doing that might cause a fear reaction in him: is the sibling going towards a toy and he's afraid the sibling will take it/break it? Is he having sensory issues and the other child is making a noise that's freaking him out? And watch carefully ... I was shocked when I had it pointed out to me (I denied it at first but eventually saw for myself) that my youngest was literally provoking many of the attacks. I never did figure out why. The younger sibling develops a rage at the older for the mistreatment, and they figure out very subtle ways to get them punished when they discover they have that power. I see a lot of my mistakes in retrospect, but when I follow that book, things go a lot better. It is very hard to do when someone (even if it is your own child) is hurting or mistreating one of your children. Good luck with that. Hope that helps, ________________________________ From: Meera <meera327@...> Sent: Sun, September 12, 2010 11:27:29 PM Subject: Aggressive behavior  Hi.
