Re: Looking from the corner of the eye

My son did the same, and my DAN told me it was a vit. A deficiency. I'm not

going to tell you how much to give, because you can overdose, literally on vit

A, so you have to account for all the vit. A in your other supplements like

multivitamins or Cod liver oil to make sure you don't give too much. If you

aren't already giving cod liver oil, this is a good source of vit. A. Nordic

Naturals for kids is good and flavored and I think one half teaspoon a day is

the dose. If you already give cod liver oil, ask a doctor what the safe amount

for your child would be to give micelized vit. A drops. My son doesn't look out

the corner of his eye anymore, it resolved quickly, but again, vit A can be

dangerous, so ask a doctor how much.

Subject: [ ] Looking from the corner of the eye

Hello,

I've been noticing my son running or walking and looking from the corner of his

eyes. He's done this in the past, but now it's very frequent. And I'm scared

that he can hurt himself bumping into something. Not to say that I'm very

uncomfortable seeing that.

He is 29 months old, not officially diagnosed. I haven't started chelation yet,

still educating myself as I want to do everything right. At the moment he is

taking a homeopathic remedy, multivitamins, calcium, vitamin C (all in chewable

form). He has progressed a lot with homeopathy and intensive speech therapy,

still has a lot of social-emotional issues and play skills delay.

What can I do about his looking from the corner of the eye? Can it be some

deficiency or yeast? Any supplements that might be helpful? And should I start

him on any supplements prior to chelation?

Any input would be highly appreciated.

Thank you so much.

Start giving him fish oil, specifically Vit A, it is available as 10000 IU soy

free made by Carlson or Solgar. This usually fixes the side-glancing issue.

I have to comment on this because the topic so " hits home " . I recently read

about this (can't remember which book on autism), and it was referred to as

" side-ways glancing " . My dd (from Russia, born at 26 wks and adopted at 8

months of age) did this from about age 1 to age 7. I just thought she was

giving me " dirty looks " , as part of the whole picture of her " pushing me away "

behaviors. I was amazed to read it was actually one of the behaviors listed on

autism spectrum checklists. I know the book said it had to do with the rods in

the eyes, but I don't remember what else. Last year, our neurodevelopmentalist

said this dd had one of the worst cases of " orphanage eyes " (termed, I think,

because of nothing to track in the nearly private small room she was kept in at

the orphanage she'd ever seen. Upon examining her eyes, she said she sees out

of the sides of her pupils. She reads very well but is very clumsy and rams

into me like I'm not there. The ND had us doing exercises on her eyes with

lights. It seems to help, but now at her recent appointment for new glasses

(she's 12), the Dr. said she was reading the lines on the chart like 1 to 3,

then 2 to 4, etc., and prescribed bi-focals. She seems to be running into me

less, but is still clumsy otherwise.

So hard to get to the bottom of all these things! We just finished round 10 and

she's really responding! This is the first thing that is hitting the very

extreme irritability.

My son did this for a loooooooooooong time. It required anti-fungals,

anti-virals, and B12 to eliminate this problem. You might start with vitamin A

tho. For some kids, that is all they need.

Hello,

My daughter started doing this at around age 3 or 4. She looks out the corner

her eye while walking in the opposite direction. This has lessened a lot with

chelation (on round 48 this weekend). VitaminA protocol helped and i am finding

that parasite cleanse helps. She does this infrequently now; she is 9. A good

yeast protocol in place definitely helps.

This used to frustrate my husband to no end... he would say " look at me " when

mine was in trouble, and she would - out of the corner of her eye, which is

where she saw best from LOL. Unfortunately, we didn't start treatments until

she was almost 7.

Have you tested for Vitamin D? Most people are now deficient due to the skin

cancer reports, sunscreens, etc. This is a really good Vitamin D:

And then you supplement with Omegas, too - you can use Krill Oil if you don't

have allergies to shell fish:

My son did this also. diagnosed on the spectrum (PDD-NOS because he wouldn't

cooperate with SLT, but autism from next eval)at age 4 1/2yrs which was quite

late. Luckily I read an article by Dr. Megson which detailed the metabolic

break suspected from DTP/DTaP vaccine. http://www.megson.com/readings.php, see

G-Alpha protein deficit.

The metabolic break is circumvented by using Vitamin A in the form of distilled

cod liver oil since it IS absorbed and utilized. Vitamin A Palmitate from

commercial dairy sources, and Beta Carotene are not utilized. Note that Cod

Liver oil also has Vitamin D and E which I have read help protect against

toxicity. Find out on your own, and please correct if I've erred.

My son did respond well to this supplement. His sideways glances diminished and

combined with a protocol of Vitamin B6+Magnesium he broke free from his

echolalia six months from the start date of the regimen. I must add though,

February he started vision therapy because his brain just isn't wired right with

his eyes. So, improvements don't equate to " no damage remaining " . With this

therapy we are re-connecting the brain/eyes and also vestibular/spacial

orientation, fine motor, and speech centers. Vision is a key sense and in many

children, (ADD, ASD, ETC) who are truly bright, they exhibit symptoms confused

with their primary diagnosis. You can read more in the book, 'Envisioning a

Brighter Future' by Lemer, or by going to a developmental optometrist's

web site. Our optometrist is Dr. Kotlicky and you can see his information at

http://www.vlca.com/index.html. My son can now look out of the window of our

car while moving. No small feat. He is much more relaxed and is showing

progress. He's only 1/3 through his therapy so I have hope for more.

Exact dosage should be determined by weight and needs. My son needed a lot. At

the time of my son's anti-measles vitamin A regimen Dr. Mumper of DAN! explained

that toxicity isn't likely even at doses of 400,000IU per day for three days.

(But that's as long as you should dare under a DR's guidance with liver function

tests,DO NOT EXCEDE!)

Signs of toxicity include scaling/flaky skin at the back of the neck. Certainly

educate before supplementing in therapeutic doses since liver damage is the

price to pay.

Wishing you the best. I hope some info here helps.
