Hello Everyone!

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

You have come to the right place. You may want to familiarize yourself with

Dr. Goldberg and his treatments because based on your post, my hunch is that

he could REALLY help your son. At the very least, his treatment offers a

great deal of hope because he does not buy into the belief that our kids are

born this way and we just have to deal with it. His theories make a great

deal of sense because all of the symptoms fit together under one diagnosis,

the heart of all of the problems: (neuro immune disfunction syndrome).

I truly hope this list can help you out. We've all felt the despair and

isolation. There are a lot of knowledgable and compassionate people in this

group.

Welcome.

All of these diagnosis came from your psychologist. Is your son now

or has he been physically ill? Physical illness can cause

developmental problems. be sure if he is/has been physically ill,

you are certain his body is healthy. See a specialist like an

Infectious Disease doctor or an Immunologist if there are alot of

allergy issues.

My son was not just diagnosed by his psychologist, also his

nuerologist, phyciatrist and some other ppl I can't seem to keep track

of lately. He has only been sick really bad once in his life when he

was about 4. He had to have his uerethra widened because his bladder

is the size of an adults and his uerethra was too small. His kidneys

almost shut down because it hurt so bad for him to pee he refused to

for days before we figured out what was making him so sick. He gets

colds and whatnot all the time but its about the same as any other

kid. He has never had ear infections or anything like that however.

I talked to his stepmom about checking for celiac disease. She agreed

with me that could be the next step and I will bring it up at the next

meeting. Right now we are trying to let all this new information sink

in and figure out whats going on.

I had replied to this but for some reason it never showed up. My son

was very ill when he was about 4. He had to have his uerethra widened

because it was hurting him really bad to urinate. He refused to go for

so long his kidneys shut down. Other then that he has been pretty healthy.

[Guest guest]

Hi

What is your reasoning for checking for celiac? We did that when

we figured out that is what my mother-in-law has. We did the blood

test, it was positive, so the doctor ordered a scope....it was

negative.

When your son had the kidney problems, was he put on alot of

antibiotics? My son was put on antibiotics at a young age for

surgeries, then wound up with yeast problems, but no doctor figured

that out....just Dr G 3 years latr.

,

I just went back and read your original post and I wanted to throw in here

that everything but the enlarged bladder that you mentioned your son having

been diagnosed with is something that could likely be helped by the

treatments the children in this group are pursuing.

The dyslexia ties in with all of this because it seems to go hand-in-hand

with a high percentage of kids diagnosed with ADD.

Anyway, with the concern about celiac, which is not common in these kids

although whole wheat/gluten intolerance IS common, I just want to encourage

you to check out the following link soon...

http://nids.net/diet.htm

.... for " the diet " that we all basically follow in one form or another.

Based on food screens and observed reactions, kids eliminate other items as

well but " the diet " is a good starting point. It will remove many of the

things that our kids react to.

Should you choose to go the route for treatment, once you get started

in the practice, they can help you fine tune the diet for your child.

The diet is something you can do right now. We can help you get going on

this. At our house we saw improvement just from the diet and were on just

that for months before getting in to see Dr. Goldberg.

You can do other things now to help cool down your son's immune system, such

as being aggressive in treating allergies. Many of these kids are on oral

antihistamines plus nasal sprays (we're on Nasacort an Astelin) to give them

some allergy relief.

Hang in there. I know it can all seem overwhelming, especially with all of

the labels that have been applied to your son.

I think you've come to the right place.

Boy that was a long post, but sometimes you just need to get it all

out. I have a son that was diagnosed at 4 with ADHD severe H. and

now they are considering that it might be asperger. He too was

hardly ever sick as a preschooler and still to this day might get

one cold a year. Just hang in there. Get all the info in plain

understandable words that you can. I have realized that many times

people in the medical and educational field want to label children,

which is ok by me if that gets me the help that is needed. But all

ADHD kids can not be treated the same, all aspberger kids can not be

treated the same. So they need to realize not to treat the label -

treat the child. Once you hear all the information and begin to

learn what works for your family, just do that and don't worry about

what his label is.

hi,

Getting an IEP for Aspergers kids is impossible here. I have been told

that my childrens grades are too high for an IEP. Any suggestions?

Caroline,

I know it's pathetic isn't it... we were told to go in through the

low-vision door for my son to get services, and it worked. Otherwise he'd be

loose in the jungle of middle school without support, I guess. It's insane.

What does grades have to do with anything? I don't get it a child can be on an

IEP because of medical diagnosis. My son who is vision impaired is on an IEP

based on that fact. Zack is an honor student but still has an IEP. As a matter

of fact I have the joy of his next one on Thursday. YUCK!!!! Sheri

Have your son evaluated by a private shrink and then with the diagnosis they

can't refuse you.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good children's mulitvitamin (capsule

or tab-not chewable) for my 9 year old son? Also, what is the recommended time

to take the probiotic (Kyodophilis)? Any problem taking it with the Valtrex?

Thanks in advance.

Diane

[Guest guest]

Hi Diane -

Dr G has always just told us we can use the OTC

multi-vitamins like Flintstones, etc, if we just throw

away the red ones. Oops not chewable - then any good

quality kind that you can buy that is appropriate for

his age group.

The best time to give probiotics is w/ food, w/the

assumption they can travel better and survive the

stomach better w/food, although I've given w/out too.

However much you tend to give (we started out slow and

built up - I'd sprinkle 1/3 of capsules on food that

isn't hot enough to kill the bacteria), you can give

at least w/breakfast and dinner. However, when

antibiotics are being used, you give them 2 hours

apart from each other (although an hour could be ok

for some), or the anti's will kill the pro's. There

isn't a specific time frame to follow but I always

liked to give probiotics hour+more after rather than

before.

Valtrex - be sure to wash off the blue dye or risk

extreme hyperness -lol. If pills can be swallowed, we

wrap them in margarine (Fleishman's light) and that

protects them from tasting it after the coating is

gone.

I keep hearing that Floradix (liquid) is really good, and tastes good, too.

We give a very generic muli vitamin available under the Walgreens

Barbara I am so happy you are finally out of the hospital. That's a
