Guest guest Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I was doing omega 3 oil and money's tough right now, so I just can't afford it. How is fish oil, price wise? Do you order online or buy in a store? Appreciate the feedback. > > Hi, > > I just wanted to clarify something. I, in no way, meant that trying to help your child is ridiculous. I think it is fabulous that parents do research, empower themselves, and advocate for their kids. > > , I am glad that your child has made so much progress. That is fantastic. A friend of mine has done the GFCF diet and it helped her son immensely. She also was seeing a local DAN doctor and her son was on Diflucan. Her dev ped just suggested a new medical food that is a probiotic called VSL#3. > > I personally have been giving my son fish oil for years now. He is also 6. I was advised by the 1st dev ped that we saw not to do it. She was totally unfamiliar with any information about it so I sought out a professional who was familiar. My son's current doctor was very pleased when he found out that my son was on it. > > My son is very mild. I have not had the same type of struggles that you have had although things have not always been easy and we did struggle socially. We have done a lot of OT and speech. We have a also done social skills classes privately and through our school district. We have made a ton of progress. > > I think each parent on here has a story to tell, and it is comforting to know that although we all have different challenges, we are all here for one another. I would never criticize another parents decision about how to help their own child. I just have a problem with celebrities speaking about medical issues. I also have a problem with them talking politics. I, as I said, am glad that McCarthy and people like Holly -Pete, Toni Braxton, Doug Flutie, etc are out there though making people more aware. > > Jeanine > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
