Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 It sounds like he is going thru withdrawl, my son did also. His body was craving the gluten and he went wacko. Don't give up, after a few days he was suddenly, more " present " , would respond when we spoke his name. I was a HUGE sceptic about the diet, now am a big believer. Once it is gone from his system, you can then evaluate what to do next, but it's always good to see them, and let them see without the gluten fog. Good luck!
