new here, is dr. stewart?

August 7, 2010

Hey all, just joined this list after learning about Dr. Goldberg from

another parent a week or two ago. I am leaning toward this method of

treatment, but am not 100% yet. I would most likely go to see Dr.

in south Texas (we are in Ft. Worth). But there is a center

here run by Dr. Kendal (though he is mostly at the Austin

location and has limited appts at this one) called Neurosensory Center

similar.

We actually went to an initial screening with the NSC, but at the time

I wasn't that well informed about any of this stuff, so the doc (not

dr. stewart, this was a D.O.) was talking over our heads. He gave us

lab orders for testing and prescribed some antivirals. We didn't do

any of it because we weren't sure about it at the time and mostly

because we had gone there hoping to find info about our daughter

through their proprietary neurosensory testing mechanisms. She is 2.5

and as of yet undiagnosed, but she did fall as mild/moderate on a CARS

test and has some sensory issues. Well, since she's a non-verbal 2

year old, she won't stand on the balance platform, wear the goggles,

etc. They tried to do the cochlear test by putting earphone type

things in her ears and getting measurements. Of course, she was

crying the entire time. So we were let down that they didn't tell us

over the phone that they wouldn't be able to do any of the testing.

(I've since heard dr. stewart say on his podcast that they use the

readings from these tests to determine when they can finish the

antivirals, which makes them better than just a DAN giving antivirals)

I haven't seen Dr. say their center does , but it seems an

awful lot like it. Antivirals + antifungals. Although they then call

for topical mb12 and maybe some other supplements. They talk about

methylation a lot. (that's mostly what made us glaze over during the

consult) And they do talk about cleaning up the GI with probiotics &

enzymes, and also gfcf and omega3's, etc. Whereas best I can tell

is antivirals, antifungals, + SSRI with maybe diet?

I tried searching the archives, but didn't come up with anything but a

few posts from 2003'ish. Does anyone here have experience with or

know about the NSC and Dr. ?

Thanks,
