Guest guest Posted June 16, 2001 Report Share Posted June 16, 2001 Hi, My name is Joann and I have a 13 year old who was diagnosed as having Autism at the age of 3. She is now classified as having PDD. Although Kathy is very verbal her biggest problems are developmental delays, learning disabilities, and behavior problems. Up until now I always trusted the doctor and she's been on medication since the age of 7. She has made progress but since hitting puberty were having more problems along the way of behavior. I'm not convinced that medication is the way to go and I'm now investigating alternative treatment such as diet and food allergies. If anyone can tell me how best to start out I would appreciate it all this information I've been getting from the internet is starting to confuse me. Thanks....
