1 year of biomedical treatment - need advice!

[Guest guest]

Hello All!

My son is 10 and severely autistic. His speech is limited to requests, he has no

interest in any activity, only running around the house, sprinkling water,

stimming. He is on GFCF and sugar-free diet since December 2009.

I have some major concerns about him:

He stopped growing since we started the diet. His teeth stopped changing. We

checked his thyroid, the tests came back normal. They did change before diet.

His milk intake was not big at that time, and I didn't give him additional

calcium before. Now he gets it even more.

Why his teeth stopped changing?

Should we start something therapeutically for his thyroid?

We checked his cortisol, and it was abnormal. If we start AdrenErgizer will this

also help thyroid and improve his growth?

Also, he developed occasional toe walking. What could be reason for this?

He developed " goose skin " all over his body - shoulders, back, elbows, hips,

under knees. What it can be?

He is taking the following supps:

Enzymes and Probiotics, Milk Thistle

Vitamin A, E, C, B50, B5, P5P, biotin

Magnesium, Zinc, Selen, Calcium, Molybdenum

MB12, folinic, TMG

DHA, PhosChol,

Lauricidin.

GSE and Oil of Oregano - according to symptoms of candida.

We did 10 rounds of frequent dose chelation with 5mg of DMSA. Right after taking

the first dose, he played a pretend game first time in our life. But it was the

only single episode. Does it mean that :

1. He needs higher dose, or

2. I need to wait 50-70 rounds that candida will get down and I will see more

progress?

We tried antivirals: OLE and ViraStop. With ViraStop, he complained about

stomach pain, and actually cried right after taking a capsule. What this could

mean, any idea would be greatly appreciated.

With OLE I saw no obvious changes.

Actually, I do not see any good changes in him during this year. The only

difference is that he became calmer when we took sugar away. But, he is often

excausted, He depends on enzymes, otherwise gets reflux. When he coughs

occasionally, he holds his stomach and says it hurts.

In terms of play and activity he actually regressed. He doesn't want to go on

the playground. He watches his baby video fifth year in a row, and listens to

his preschool CDs as always.

I am planning to keep on chelation, but I am not sure what else should I do to

help him to progress. Now he still doesn't develop any new skills. I know that

we lost many years, and he is a big boy with autism, but I still want to help

him.

I will appreciate any advice,

Thank you so much in advance,
