hi

i briefly wrote in the other day and it was suggested that i explain more in

detail so here goes. lets see i had a not so normal pregnancy i had

preclamsia toxemia and had to be induced at 37 weeks for high blood pressure

and did receive a rhogam shot. i was on magnesium sulfate for about 4 days

and then it took a total of 5 to have him. he was fine first apgar a 8 and

second a 9 everything seemed fine, 6 pounds 8 ounces.

i wanted to breast feed but for some reason he was not interested i suspect

they fed him in the nursery so he went to sleep in his little bed next to me

and i woke up and he was blue i got the nurse in time and they recesitated

him but no oxygen left his blood. they ran all kinds of tests but found

nothing wrong said it was SIDS. so we went home after 3 days had things as

normal as could be with that heart monitor contraption lol. at three weeks he

got a fever and we took him to the doctors they admitted him and found he had

viral menigitis. (all the while i had my second rhogam shot and i am

nursing). after a few days of antibiotics he came home and they again said he

was fine. but he always had problems with spitting up i put him in his car

seat to sleep till he did not fit in it anymore. he had phenomena and milk in

both lungs at 5 and again at 6 months he was hospitalized again and after a

bit came home all the while he never crawled walked sat up or anything not

till after a year and they said he will catch up he will be OK. finally at

almost 2 i took him to Kennedy kreiger children's hospital and said he cant

talk can barely walk i cant take it anymore please help me and they did a

full work up found damage to the white part of the brain, he has cerebral

palsy it affects the muscles in his face so he cannot really swallow good or

talk good but he can walk and all. he has very low tone. he has awful

tantrums very bad rages hair pulling of his own head banging and he is just

so autistic they say he is not but he knows where everyone lives and the

exact way to get there he knows what he wants and fabric and color trust me

if it has to be that way it does or else. he sounds to me like he is mercury

toxic he has all the symptoms and they seem to get worse. and sadly to say he

got all his immunizations i did not know about all of this until recently and

after his last set over the summer he went so loopy more tantrums then ever

holding his breathe and everything.

i seen on the website that ddi has a hair mercury test you can do at home do

you thin i will get the same results from that as i would some other type of

test what do you suggest i could use all the help i could get

thank you
