Re: A rash on my son's face wondering if it's Chicken Pox? or what?

[Guest guest]

I am more inclined to think it's one of the many viruses out there that can cause a rash that's basically harmless rather than chicken pox, but hey, I'm not a doctor...don't even play one on TV! There are websites that show photos of the chicken pox virus if you care to look at them (one is http://www.vaccineinformation.org/varicel/photos.asp -- I didn't look at them too closely, and it does say some photos are graphic, which probably means really yucky -- a technical term! There are other sites as well -- just type "chicken pox rash" in your web browser and you'll come up with several sites with photos).

Since he had a fever, then the rash and now it's mostly gone, I'm thinking it's not chicken pox, as that tends to hang on a bit longer. I do know from experience that there are many viruses that work just that way -- your child gets a fever, then a rash, then it goes away as quickly as it came. If it does persist or bother you, or if your child develops other symptoms, at least calling the doctor and asking about it couldn't hurt. That's what I would do.

Wishing you luck and quickly improved health for your child!

It's like I'm taking him to the doctor all the time. Any suggestions....what does chicken pox look like and how long does it last. Has anyone on this lists children had the chicken pox? how did it go? did it make the autism worse? I'm worried...

Thanks, Lynnette

Chicken pox is itchy, so that is one give-away. I had it several times as a kid and one of my kids has had it. The rest got the vaccine and never got it.

I think any rash with a fever probably deserves a trip to the doc. One thought I did have in reading your post was possibly scarlet fever. My dd used to get this a lot as a kid. But without being a doctor, that is just my thought since it is my own experience here with my kids.

Well, all our kids but one got the vaccine for chicken pox and it didn't make things any worse either. They are just autistic or not autistic but without chicken pox. lol.

well, at my end, it does just happen. It's genetics at work at my house and down the family tree branches that have long been cut into firewood. My kids got all their shots too. In fact, with all the screaming about vaccines causing autism, I delayed my one son's shots for a year. He wasn't talking and I was afraid he would be dx'd with autism too. We finally got his shot and guess what - a month later he started talking.

Hi Roxanna or anyone else that may have this info,

Do you know of an email list (local would be better but not absolute) that is targeted to those who have and/or have child(ren) that subscribe to the genetic link of Autism? Ok, subscribe isn't exactly the word I want to use, however I don't want to risk being pounced upon.

Thanks,

Hi Lynette,

In case noone answered, chicken pox, start on warm places on the body, underarm or on the tummy. Normally there is a blister, usually clear. I have heard lots of people say their child got the chicken pox and no, it does not make autism worse, better than getting the vaccine for it, for sure.

Good luck,

I disagree. I think the epidemic of autism can be directly correlated with the increasing number of vaccinations that are required. In addition to the very unsafe practice of vaccinating infants who have colds and/or while they are on antibiotics. Nothing else, to me, explains why the rates of autism have risen so dramatically over the last16 years.

Autism just doesn't happen, its created by injecting babies with known neurotoxins that tax the immune system to the breaking point. I don't know how else to explain all the mercury and bismuth that has poured out of our little one or the resulting improvement in cognition and social that just miraculously appeared as the tests showed the mercury coming out.

Hi there,

I did a search on groups (www.) and got over 80

hits on the search for autism and aba. I did not try genetics and

autism, but you could! i am sure you are going to find many groups

that you may like to join.

This is my results link for you:

search?query=autism+aba

I hope you will stay on our board also, as it is open to everyone

who has been afflicted by autism in one way or another ....

There are many people on this list, including me, who really support

behavioral interventions for their child. I am also exploring

biomedical interventions for my son as with 2.5 years of intensive

behavioral interventions we were not seeing much progress. IMO, ABA

is not the whole answer. For some, it may be (lucky you guys!!).

I have beein reading a lot about the latest things that science has

to offer to us on autism, and I really excited because there seem to

be some answers emerging. Since we re-started biomedical

interventions (some supplements, some chelation) I am seeing many

new gains already in my son! However, of course, we will continue

the hard work with behavioral therapies until my son gets much

better.

The results, I think, will really be a combination of the tow - one

teaches skills very well, and the other is trying to heal the body

and brain so that learning can take place faster...

It's just my opinion. I hope I haven't offended anyone and that

voicing it will not turn anyone away from this board....

Best wishes,

The cause for autism has yet to be established. There are some

likely culprits which on-going research will, hopefully, in the

future either identify as the cause of autism or rule out as a

concern. Until a definitive cause for autism (or certain sub-sets

of autism) has been established, then I think there is room for

intelligent discussion and healthy debate with respect for different

points of view and experiences.

We as parents of children on the spectrum can certainly appreciate

the intensity of other's convictions; however, we do not want to see

the debate itself take center stage and leave the needs of children

& the concerns of parents in the wings.

This list is here to " provide a caring word, a shoulder to cry on,

or just to share experiences, wisdom, and insight " to quote the

NEOhio home page. We members can certainly disagree and express

differences of opinion/experience, but these differences should be

expressed in the context of support and help and giving of

resources, not in the context of one-up-manship.

I have learned much from everyone on this list but there is still

much more to learn and discover. Please, let's continue to learn

from each other in a respectful environment. Chris

- I, too, believe it's the combination of the two methods

that help children the most. In our case, we first started the GF-

CF diet on advice of our neurologist, and then a few months later,

started ABA. It's like the diet got Bobby (or his brain) ready to

learn, and the ABA gave him something to learn. Chris

Jane,

Our pediatric neurologist suggested it as well when we first

starting seeing him... we switched to him because we had heard such

good things about him and we were not fond of the first neurologist

we saw..... he actually communicates with the parents and will let

you ask as many questions.. he's even called me at home from his

home on the weekend to see how kiernan was doing when we upped his

meds... don't find that everyday! He's always willing to clear

time in his schedule if parents want to go in to talk as well...

If anyone is insterested his name is Dr. Irwin s. We see him

over at Fairview Hospital but he has offices up at

University/Rainbow as well, I believe.

Just thought I'd share!
