Constipation! Rubbing penis! Miralax study?

[Guest guest]

Hi all! I have finally made an appointment for tomorrow with the pediatrician

to discuss my 9 yr olds constipation. We've been working with a DAN for years

doing AC chelation, GFCFSF and a few other F's, many supplements. This one

problem just seems to be getting worse. He will rub a spot just over his penis

until it is red. He has rubbed holes in his jeans and dyed his fingers blue.

He will tell me it is so itchy it's driving him crazy. He also punches himself

lightly in the lower abdomen. We've tried massive amounts of magnesium citrate,

aloe vera juice, lots of water, vitamin c, enzymes, etc., epsom salts,

everything I've read about here and on other sites. Nothing seems to work.

When he goes (about every 2-3 days) it's enormous yellow snakes or orange-sized

balls. The rubbing stops and then returns again. I have a feeling that the

reg. pediatrician might recommend Miralax again. I thought it made him spacey

and silly when we tried that years ago. I also seem to remember a study about

it not showing up in the stool of kids with autism? Can anyone site that?

Comprehensive stool analysis showed no parasites, yeast. Last year he had anal

strep, which was wiped out w/antibiotics. Yeast symptoms seem under control.

There is no rash or redness. HELP! It's driving us all crazy! If I hear " All

little boys find it, just send him to his room " again I'm going to scream! Any

ideas?
