viral die-off ??s

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone, my ASD son has broken out in a rash on his behind today.

He has been acting a but strange lately- increased stimming (visual

and verbal, and he usually isn't a stimmy guy), agitated and yells at

people on a dime, as well as moody and clingy. I don't think he's

actually sick (but maybe he is)? We recently began giving large doses

of vitamin C (just got diagnosed with histadelia), so I am thinking it

is biral die-off. His development has been great lately so I don't

think he is having a negative reaction to anything.

First, are kids contagious when they have a die-off rash? It doesn't

seem like they would be, but before we go hang around with tons of

kids tomorrow I wanted to double-check. How do you tell it's die-off

and not just bei9ng sick? How do you tell what is dying off? His

rash on his upper buttock (not diaper rash), but could it be a rash

that normally appears on another part of the body?

Thanks so much for any help!!
