Guest guest Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 HI I am a VERY newbie--for my son who is autistic and 10 years old. He started havign reflux after 8 weeks of age-- after 5 vaccines... this diet is stressing me out beyond all reason... I alwaya attended to his stomach with fresh garlic, nutritional meds, herbal remedies, homeopathics... and they helped... but after I gave him fluoride in a moment of weakness for 6 weeks.... (i didn't give it to him prior... I feared it.. but over 3000 dollars of dental work made me think.... maybe the dentist and ped are right? so... it began a hell that has lasted thru today. I started Fluoride in mid-Aug... I stopped end of Sept... my poor baby was so sick... so much pain... ugh. Anyhoo... it came to a high point 2 weeks ago when I almost took him to the hospital (my husband talked me out of it) but all of my knowledge wasn't helping...and I FEAR reg dooctors... they always hurt him... anyhoo... there was a strange AGREEMENT between my natropath and a pediatric gastro doc who specialized in autistic stomaches... and this diet was it. AGREEMENT never happens... the naturapath always helps... never hurts... the reg. doctors always hurt...rarely help.... so I said... I either do this diet... or he will never be well..and hospitals and tubes are his future... he is SOO much work always anyway... prepping vitamins, supplements, herbal mixes, meltdowns, sleep is sporadic.. urinary infections a constant torture... yet, my natrapath says.. it's all from his gut. SHE just went to a seminar that was about this diet... THAT is why she sent me to it. sorry... more info than u need. I am stressed. He never had diarreah, but the reverse... and since a year ago, has been having BM 1 x every day or every other day. He takes Natural Calm... a magnesium supplement.. it is wonderful..and gentle. He is only day 9. He is eating hamburgers barbequed.. (he has sensory issues-- he is yearning the crunch) lettuce. celery. apple grapes got him to nibble a banana (not a good texture for him... but he tolerated) refuses to let a scrambled egg come within 2 feet of him. not wanting grape juice gelatin. and ate for first time white meat turkey last night for first time ever in life! he has no diarrhea... and has been eating this for 4 days. he is in less pain... for shorter times... but when it comes, it is intense. has UTI infections reoccuring... but herbal and watremelon juice (strained) helps and charcoal... I believe he is in major detox from yeast die-off... he gets violent (with me) eyes red blaring, possesed and in pain.. the will cry and sob so my heart breaks... is this die off??? (first 5, I was crazy with jumping ahead with peanut butter cookies, and allowing potatoes (just didn't want to stop the staple potato baked in olive oil with sea salt for lunch every day... ), etc.... now, I am trying to go more logically--though I am still wrong, I know...) he is invited to a movie and a friendly's lunch. WHAT AM I TO DO? This is a cousin...and my son (anthony) and my daughter 5-- are going. do I allow it ? Is there anything I can get there that would be OK? PLEASE HELP... digestive enzymes and a hamburger? ugh ugh ugh. Tomorrow is the party. Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
