Actually, it sounds like he was probably food sensitive before the

Lexapro, but when you removed it, the sensitivity showed up in a

different way than it did before. For my son, food and supplement

issues would change over time.

Try giving digestive enzymes, especially No-Fenol. Red ears and

cheeks is a sign of food intolerance, especially phenol intolerance

My question would be ... Was your son vaccinated in Russia? Were his

vaccines repeated once he came home?

Subject: [ ] Lexapro

Hi all. I have an unusual question. My son was taking Lexapro for

about 7 months last year. It made him much more affectionate and did

wonders for his food aversions and oral defense. The draw back was

that it made him way too hyper and constipated. I gradually weaned

him off last fall.

The day that I stopped giving it his face and ears became red and dry.

A couple weeks went by with no change to his face or ears. I started

giving it to him again and in a matter of hours his face and ears

returned to normal.

Later we were to discover that this was a symptom of food intolerance.

His ears and face were always normal color before the Lexapro and

while he was taking it.

It almost seems like he became food sensitive after the Lexapro.

Does anyone know why or how this could happen?

We adopted our son from Russia. We had no idea that he was Mercury

and Lead poisoned. We had a ton of tests run after adopting him.

Lead was fine as well as many other things. (so they told us)

We still do not have a diagnosis for him.

Any feed back or similar stories would be most appreciated.

Yes he was vaccinated in Russia. And yes they were repeated. I wish

I had never allowed it. We were told that the vaccinations over-seas

were not as effective as western vaccinations.

But not only was my son harmed by vaccinations, he was harmed by the

orphanage environment. We were clueless.

Russia with-held much information from us. Later we were to discover

that my son's birth mother was a painter. Probably passed lead fumes

to him in utero. She was low income and probably ate allot of toxic

fish from the rivers. As we saw many poor people fishing from rivers

in Russia while we were there.

We're in a tight spot. No doctor will diagnose him. Give him time

and come back in six months is the norm that we hear from almost

every specialist. (arrrggg)

What does it take to get a doc to diagnose? We've tried every

specialist we can think of.

Any advice?

Lori,

How old is your child?

Who prescribed the Lexapro?

What type of specialist have you seen?

Do you any diagnosis at all?

It helps me with anxiety. The tiredness passed and I was more energetic. I

love it, however Ive gained weight (but I needed to and was always too

stressed.)

I've been on Lexapro for a while now, I just

lol I'm jk Stratterra helps some too. But did anyone feel like tired

when they first started taking Lexapro? Did anyone loose weight off of

it? Lol thats like my favorite side effect cause i'm like over my

But I'm on it because of depression and test anxiety...does it really

Pam;

My son is 3.9 yrs old. His pediatric neurologist prescribed the

Lexapro. He was also on Clomipramine for a short time. We saw huge

gains with this. But had nasty side effects.

We've seen many specialists.... ped developmental psychologist, ped

neurologist, ped geneticist, ped gastroenterologist,Ped Optometrist,

ped Ophthalmologist. I know most of these doctors are not qualified

to give Autisim diag but many of them couldnt even help him.

Is my son so messed up that he is untreatable or undiagnosable?

*Geneticist found nothing wrong but wanted him to come back in 6

months. (ya, maybe his genes will change)

*Gastro found nothing wrong but wanted to see him again.

*Both eye doctors found nothing wrong but wanted us to try vision

therapy and come back in 6 months.

*Neurologist said my son was ADHD with OCD and developmental delay.

(duh... ya think so?)

*Phychologist was the biggest joke of all. We took him 5 times to

see her and still could'nt get a diagnosis.

Where do I turn next?

Well, I don't quite know what to say, except, that of course, your boy is not

too messed up to be diagnosed. We had the same problem. All the kids who don't

quit fit neatly into the diagnosis go through the same thing. If it's any

consolation, I have been diagnosing children for years and could never come up

with a definitive diagnosis for our little one.

Doesn't matter, wouldn't change things for you, if there was a dx. The question

is what do you want to do about it?

If getting a dx is all you want, keep following the neurologists around until

you get one. If you show up enough times, they will eventually give you one.

If you want to figure out if your boy could benefit from some biomedical

treatment, the first step is to get a hair test from Doctor's Data Institute or

Direct Labs and see if he might benefit from chelation.

You can read the files on the list to get started. I know how confusing all this

seems at first, but there are lots of knowledgeable people here to help. Read,

read, read and then ask any questions to have.

Good luck,

We've been doing the bio medical treatments for the past 9 months.

Hair, urine and stool have all been tested. Lead was off the charts.

I know my son is Autistic. A diag would be nice so we can enroll him

in special schools. I live close to Nashville. Vanderbilt University

Medical Center has great programs and testing for autism but your

child has to be diag first.

One of our major issues is that he is adopted and we do not have any

family medical history or birth history.

He does have a half sister in Russia. She's in her 20's now. I

begged our adoption agency to have someone in Russia find out what

her condition was since she was also in an orphanage.

They were able to tell me that the sister is mentally impared and is

currently functioning at an 8th grade level. Russia is tight lipped,

it took some time to get the informaion but that was all they would

share with us.

I feel blessed to have my son in my life. God brought him here for

a reason.

This is by far my biggest test of faith.

Why do you need a diagnosis? Just start biomedical interventions on your

own. Insurance covers little of this stuff anyway.

I guess the diagnosis is for me. Prognosis would be

nice.

I think what it all comes down to is that I feel in my

heart that there is something else going on with him.

Yes he has many autistic traits, but also has some

abnormal physical features. His head circumference is

in the 5 percentile for his age, his weight is 30

percentile. His head is flat in the back, he has wide

spaced teeth and two webbed toes on both feet. Almost

every vein in his body you can see through his skin.

His pinky fingers are malformed.

Genetics testing was normal for what they tested.

So I think I'm justified as a mother to want a better

diagnosis than just " unexplained developmental delay " .

Always in the back of my mind there's something that

says what if he has a disease or other condition that

he's not being treated for?

I know we're doing right by him with the supplements

and chelation therapy.

I would love to enroll him in some classes at

Vanderbilt ( university hospital here in TN) , but he

doesn't have a diagnosis.

All I want to do is share my life with my child.

Lexapro and Clomipramine let me do that last year.

The first time ever we were able to see the real

. But I don't want those drugs in him again

because of the side effects.

Lori,

You may want to seek out a developmental pediatrician or a DAN! doc.

Don't beat yourself up over the vaccines. We all thought we were being good

parents and now we're all here. Of course he is not so messed up that he

can't be helped. I would not be looking for a prognosis. Anyone that would

offer one does not have a clue. No one has a crystal ball for our children.

I assume he was tested for Fragile X?

Have you looked for a Rescue Angel in your area from Generation Rescue?

They might be able to direct you to better services.

Developmental Pediatrician was the one who told us to

vaccinate him again. Maybe I should find a

pediatrician who is more fimilliar with ASD.

We've been seeing DAN Dr since September last year.

Yes Fraglile X was tested as well as many other

syndromes including FAS. Results were all negitive.

Thanks for the link. I'll check it out

I can certainly understand your belief in this area, especially

because of the other issues you wrote about. But here is just another

opinion that you can consider, and ignore if you want.

My #2 has a dx of " classic genetic Kanner's autism " , severe, low

functioning. He assessed at 3-1/2, as developmentally age 0-3 months.

I refused to have him tested further, especially genetic testing,

because I did not want to limit myself to what he might be able to

achieve. He already has one dx that is very limiting for many people,

why add to it?

Despite that dx, and the pedneuro telling me to put him into an

institution [at age 3-1/2] and enjoy my other kids, I refused to

believe her.

My son is age 10 now, no longer autistic, and recently assessed as

K.0-1.0 [grade level equivalent]. He talks, he reads, and on some

days he is my best-behaved child. Right now I regret having him dx at

all, because the dx never really did anything for me [or him] except

create problems, such as I can't buy health insurance for him.

I think if I had had him tested, maybe I would not have kept working

to recover him, especially if something " genetic " had been found. He

does have some issues that can be indicators of genetic issues, but

they are not obvious, and I have addressed them as biomedical rather

than possibly genetic. This has worked out very well for me.

Your experience and opinion may vary.

Dana

[Guest guest]

You have a valid point.

Maybe I'm seeking an answer so I as a mother will feel

better about being a mother. I play the blame game

allot. Where's Dr Phil when you need him?

Maybe I'm the one who needs the diagnosing.! Ha ha

My son WILL get better and do great things. You're

right screw the diagnosis!! I'm probably just chasing

my tail on this one anyway. Thanks for the feedback.

For certain medical conditions [like seizures], many times it is good

to know exactly what you are dealing with. But for what you

described, maybe not. At least something to consider.

You already have a good reason to feel better as a mother. You are

here, researching what can help your child be the best that he can be.

You are doing just fine, keep it up!

Good going Charlie. People don't seem to realize that

when you hold onto your emotions they eventually will

affect you physically and emotionally. The meds help

clear your mind well enough for you to be able to talk

things out so that eventually you, hopefully, will be

able to get off it altogether. Out thoughts and

emotions do affect our physical.

See if your dr. has samples that he can help you with.

they get lots of samples from the pharm. people and

he/she might be open to helping you out with them.

Do you have any insurance that covers any of them? You

can contact the manufacturer and ask them if they have

any programs that you can be a part of so you can get

your meds. I would be very leary about getting them

from a source that is not traceable and has a good

reputation.

Hi ,

I have been taking Lexapro for about 4 years. It has been a Godsend! I

have never been depressed, but was edgy and anxious. They say it takes

a couple of weeks to really feel the effects, but I felt them within a

week. I did not have those feelings of impending doom or that I was

late everywhere I went. I don't know what symptoms you are having, but

it really worked for me. My husband said he could really tell the

difference! LOL.

I've also been taking it for about 5-6 years. I went on it almost as soon

as it was available as I wanted something with less side effects. I do take

something else besides it after my husband passed on suddenly. It seems to

work well with my other meds so I don't sink so far down in the " pit " . I

have had good results thus far. I would say give it a try.

I have been taking Lexapro for about ten months. I've never taken

anything before, just suffered with severe anxiety. But I started

having actual panic attacks, so I asked for something. It seems to

work great. My anxiety immediately dropped, no more panic attacks.

Very few side effects after the first few months.

I took Lexapro for about a year after the birth of my son. I was super anxious

and just couldn't relax when I was alone with him. I tapered up from 2.5 to 5,

and then 10 mg and then tapered back down when I felt better. The only side

effect was some nausea the first week which improved when I took it at night.

Feel better!

I've been on 10 mg for about six months and I never had any side effects except

for a tiny bit of nausea and dizziness the first couple of days.

I have been on Lex. 10 mgs. since May. At first I thought it was great but I

dont think it is working anymore. I was thinking of going up to a higher dosage

but i dont want to feel numb either. Depression sucks.
