Guest guest Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Hi All - My son, 3, yesterday was diagnosed autistic and having hypotonia. We give him Fish Oils and NV and have had significant progress with both. His Dev pediatrician just recommended metabolic testing due to the hypotonia - one of these being amino acids (plasma amino acids and urine amino & organic acids), which I note is also in NV (and probably other things they're testing for). Unfortunately I didn't see the list of the tests that she's giving until after leaving and it didn't even occur to me to ask whether NV would affect the test results. I was just curious if anyone has done this testing or has an idea of whether this would be an issue - or perhaps I should discuss it directly with her. Thanks! In case it helps, here is the list of tests she recommended: Urine amino & organic acids lactate pyruvate comprehensive metabolic profile plasma amino acids CBC CGH/Microarray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
