Autistic son (and daughter) refuse to take ALL supplements...next stop: IV??

December 14, 2011

I want to know if there are any other parents out there that have had to go this

route with both and/or IV supplementation and IV antibiotics on their small

children? My kids are nearly 4 and 6 and absolutely REFUSE all supplementation

and medication and they are not getting any better. In fact, my son is

borderline failure to thrive (again! *sigh*) The DAN docs they've seen the last

year have been putting pressure on me with their GFCFSF diets (which they are

100% on) and try to make sure that I do 'everything I can' to make them

compliant or all the reason for their failure to thrive is me....yeah, right!!

One wise doc told me once that there are two things you can't make your children

do, sleep or eat!

I am fed up with the negative pressure and trying to feed my kids the most

expensive diet foods and rotate XYZ for such and such days and low this and high

that....UGH! They are literally eating very little food! I refuse to let them

eat allergic foods and try to sneak even just drops of supplements into the

juice or DF milks but never at any levels that are beneficial or therapuetic by

any means! They sniff everything out and refuse to eat, PERIOD. I've been doing

this diet for two years now and refuse to give up (I'm not an idiot!) Let me

clarify that these DAN docs we're seeing for the last year just found out we all

have Lyme and DON'T treat for Lyme disease. I found another LLMD in the area

where we live and I'm going there in the morning to get the results of my Igenex

and other tests (YAY!!). I'm going to bring my son into this clinic to get him

started on testing and was just wondering (well, panicking is more like it) if

others here have had to do total IV intervention with everything...

Did you have to get a PICC line put into your little ones?

How often was IV antibiotics administered?

How often did you get IV supplements?

Did someone come to your house to do this?

What were your costs for all this IV treatment?

Anyone know of any other transdermal administered treatments offered to use on

my kids?

Any suggestions or questions I could bring up with my LLMD tomorrow morning?

Thanks in advance for all your support
