We have seen significant

gains in concentration, expressive and receptive language, and

maturity (though we still have a ways to go).

<<YEAH!! How nice is this??? Here's to many more positive improvements!

We have had virtually

no negative side effects except YEAST, which we brought under control

with Candidase / GSE / Diflucan, and some sores around and in the

mouth. Other than that, he has been a bit sleepy on days when we

adjust his Virastop up, but that is no problem. I am wondering

whether we are having an easier time of it because my son has been on

LDN since July, but I can't seem to get any response on the other

boards on this.
