Guest guest Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Has anyone ever heard of this condition in autistic children?From my Android phone on T-Mobile.

Is your doctor giving you no guidance? I know that Lyme and other infections can absolutely cause autoimmune conditions. But I don't know the relevance of the test for autoimmune conditions other than lupus. Here is a quick blurb on infections and autoimmunity. I would bring this info to your doc and see what he thinks. I just know that often people get diagnosed with conditions like ms, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, etc and it is really Lyme or another infection. http://www.immed.org/illness/autoimmune_illness_research.htmlWishing you the best...RuthSent from my iPhone I'm not sure . But could that be possible if you get a positive Ana? And how can you treat that? Is it make things worse? Is it deadly ? Sent from my iPhone I think it is an indicator of autoimmunity. Often used to diagnose lupus. Has your son been tested for Lyme?Ruth Sent from my iPhone Has anyone had a positive Ana before? My son has had this test repeated and it's positive both times. What can it be ? What can it affect? Ty = = Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Thrombosis is associated with the MTHFR mutation, which many kids with autism likely have. MTHFR is also associated with colon cancer and multiple miscarriages so if there is any family history of those issues that would be another reason to check for mutations. Appropriate supplements can be used to bypass or support the mutations which then helps the immune system do what it should do naturally.
