Guest guest Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Just a suggestion from our experiences..if you began all these at once...that would be a problem. He would be experiencing yeast die off and viral die off at the same time...very irritable and stimmy would be the results. If he were mine I would stop the antivirals and back down the antifungal. Let him adjust to the multi and probiotics (give it two weeks). Then slowly add the antifungal back in. The fact that he has been on so many antibiotics..he probably has a good yeast problem going, and beginning antifungals should be slow and easy does it. First just probiotics, wait a few weeks, then add the GSE in low doses, very gradually increasing the doses until you reach a dose that controls his yeast. This way you avoid such a huge reaction. We do see die off with just probiotics...it doesn't kill it all off mind you, but still a reaction when starting them. So you want time to adjust. Once you have the probiotics and multi in place. You can add digestive enzymes, wait a while then go for gse or visa versa. If you did not start all these at once..then disregard... Also, just a side note: all those respiratory infections..has anyone checked thyroid function? Looked for chronic low body temps? Low thyroid function will cause chronic respiratory infection and low immune function. (food for thought)TSH, free T3,Free T4 and antibodies are a good idea. > > I started my 3 year old on supplements last week and for the past 2 days > he's been totally out of control, stimming and hitting everything with his > hands and also spitting - very very hyper and very aggressive.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Tons of ASD kids are very sensitive to foods or things with food coloring/additives in them. Lots of vitamins and minerals have colorings/additives in them. I have heard of numerous stories about ASD kids have bad reactions like your sons and the vitamins you used sound like have colorings/additives in them. I have even heard of ADHD kids have really bad reactions like this. I really recommend Kirkman's Spectrum Complete or something that is similar made by Kirkman's labs.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 One more thing dark rings under eyes usually is a main sign of an allergic reaction. I have severe allergies and I can usually tell as this is one symptom that can happen. Kay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
