Thank you and Gaylen for responding with the info. I just got off the

phone with Dr. s office and the wait time right now is about a month

long (not bad compared to some other offices/doctors). I was advised to make

my appoinment a couple of months prior to arriving in Austin.

Thank you, Hope

The endolymphatic hydrops seem to be a common problem for children with

autism. It causes the hypersensitive hearing in a subset of our children.

It tends to be children from European origins. The Inner-ear tests pinpoint

the problem and measure progress through-out the treatment.

Exert from Dr. 's Dallas presentation:

Why study balance?

. Balance is a primary requirement of the nervous system

. Balance is all reflex (automated)

. Balance is relatively easy to measure

. Effectively measures all primary sensory systems

. Consistent across all age populations

He uses a computer system called the SENSORY-VIEW

. Sensory-View is a patented technology combining various diagnostic

methods used to define the brain's input from the sensory organs and record

the brains reflex response to specific sensory challenges

. Tests the Vestibulo-Spinal Reflex

. Tests Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex

. Tests " ImPACT " Processing

. Tests OAE, Audiometrics and Acoustic Reflex

Diagnostic Evaluation of the " Sensory Systems "

. OAE / Audiometrics (Cochlea and Vestibular Organ)

. Tympanometry / Acoustic Reflexes (CN VII and VIII)

. Platform Posturography (Proprioception/Visual/Vestibular)

. ENG and VAT Testing (VOR)

. Motor Control Testing / Reflex Testing (VSR)

Underlying Problem

. Fluctuating Vestibular Fluid dynamics causing fluctuating function

. (Endolymphatic Hydrops)

. Incomplete Myelination of Sensory Nerves

. (poor discrimination and abnormal reflexes)

. Worsening of these problems seen in immune regulation issues

(allergies), illness, growth, injury, poor sleep patterns, hormonal flux,

infection, heavy metal exposure or stress)

. Instability never allows visual or vestibular integration

What a mouth full. I hope this helps.

Hello all,

I too went to see Dr. . I have not started his protocol because I'm

not sure what I think of him. He told me he could " cure " my son in 6 months.

He said he didn't look classically autistic and he thought his issues where

something else. I guess I'm just skeptical about any doctor that tells me

they can cure my son. Dr. Holmes told me this too about 2 weeks before she

quit practice. I also know of 2 kids that had very bad reactions

behaviorally with Dr. 's protocol and had to stop. I guess I'm still

on the fence because my kid has very sensitive hearing and big sensory

issues so I am looking for a new angle. Sometimes though I just get tired of

all the tests and the blood work and the new latest and greatest and just

want to stop and enjoy the kid I have. It's different when they are 3 or 4

or 5 I couldn't get him to enough specialists. Now it just makes me cynical

and I wonder what the motivation really is to tell people you can cure their

son. He's making money no doubt, and he got very defensive when I questioned

his methods and asked him about the two kids I knew who had not been helped.

Perhaps I need to talk to more happy parents? Trina

Trina,

I think most of us pretty much agree that autism is not caused by any ONE

thing. Therefore, some kids will have miracles with chelation or some other

treatment, while the rest of us slog along seeing just minor improvements.

For our daughter, GFCF was an amazing improvement -- she is still autistic,

just much better. I have heard that Dr. has had amazing results with

some kids, not so much with others. This is the same thing I have heard

about chelation results, gfcf diet, DMG, B6, and other biomedical

interventions people recommend for autism, some of which we have tried. It

is very hard, no matter how much testing you do, to figure out what will

work best for your child until you try it. Your child could be loaded with

viral issues -- but that may not be what is causing the autistic behaviors.

Your child could test for mercury -- but that may not be what is causing the

autism, either. Getting either issue cleared up would probably help their

overal health, anyway, so that is a motivation, in addition to the possible

improvement of the autism.

We are currently seeing Dr. Rao in Dallas, and plan to try his approach for,

perhaps, a year and see if there is improvement. If not, we will probably

then go to Dr. for a separate approach. I admit that we are blessed

with insurance that covers almost everything, at least in part, so we can

consider these approaches. I heard Dr. speak and had a chance to

speak with him, and I had the distinct impression that he really does care

about his work, so it's probably hard for him to be casual and non-defensive

about it. Our approach with Maggie on therapeutic and biomedical issues is,

" Can it help? If not, can it harm? If it can harm, what are the risks, and

how do those compare with the possible benefits? " We weigh all these with

how much we think it can help. I sort of expect that the doctors we speak to

will strongly advocate their approach because most of them have devoted

years to it and are quite passionate it about it -- so I can't judge an

approach by how much a doctor defends it, or not. We all really have to do

our own research, pray hard, and do what seems best for our child based on

what we believe at that time.

Blessings to you in this decision.

K

A very good post Trina......I would say talk to as many parents as you can

- and especially the doctor. If he is defensive - then maybe that is reason

for concern. I don't know why a sincere person would be defensive. That

seems odd. I have jumped on the bandwagon so many times - only to fall

off flat on my face. This Dr. Volpe in Houston is my example of someone

who I believe so far - is truly sincere. I e-mail and ask him and his

office questions - and he has always responded honestly. That is what I

look for nowdays. If they can't take the time with me before I spend all

this money - then I don't have warm fuzzy feelings about spending all that

money on them..

I would question " cure " --- ask him if he can give you a money back

guarantee in writing for that cure!!!!!!

Hi all,

My son has been a patient of Dr. s for about 6 months now. He has

never used the word " cure " with me, but is very optimistic about what results he

says he would like to see. His goal is for my son to be age appropriate after

1 1/2 years of treatment. Sounds close to " cure " but is not exactly the same

thing. Of course, it is close enough for me. He also said that he can make

no guarantee except that he will not do anything to harm my son. He also said

that in his opinion it is worth a shot. I agree. His treatment is very

unobtrusive. Very few blood tests. No infusions of anything. No annoying

diets.

And my son is currently on 4 different medications -- as opposed to the 17

(more/less) different meds/supplements my DAN doctor recommended.

I became interested in the viral connection when I first saw Dr. Goldberg

from California at a conference. Dr. Goldberg often uses the word " cure. " I

too

was very skeptical at first. (Well, I guess I still am.) But Dr. Goldberg

said something then that I have said many times myself. He said that if these

kids were normal once, then there was NO reason why they couldn't be again. My

son developed normally until he was 2 1/2 and then very slowly started to

lose skills. I only know this because I have video tape which shows my very

normal son coloring pictures -- not under duress like now -- and using a fork,

playing with toys, etc. Then just about 2 months later, he is whiny and unhappy

and very, very detached. He lost all interest in toys and to this day cannot

use a fork to eat.(He is 9.)

I certainly understand the feeling of being tired of chasing the cure. After

seeing 3 DAN doctors, spending thousands of dollars, Secetrin infusions,

etc., and seeing my son continue to regress, I too am skeptical. But I also

enjoy

seeing a doctor who is optimistic. We have just seen too many neurologists

who were so negative.

For me, this theory makes a lot of since where my son is concerned. I also

like the fact that Dr. has 1) a theory about what might be causing

autism (many others have a theory about what might help), and 2) developed a

protocol for that theory (instead of just doing 18 things at once which we think

might help). His protocol might not accomplish anything. However, it will have

given me a year and a half of hope and, I think, that is worth my money.

Best to all,

Hi Liz,

I talked to them in January before we moved and they were both doing

well. I am trying to remember the conversation so please forgive me

if I am wrong. I think Dr. V had been working on a study in

California and both Dr. ' were opening a practice in New

Braunfels,TX. Dessie was working with adults/families for

counseling and I believe Dr. was still doing

pediatrics/developmental pediatrician.

The past 6 months, we have lost some of the local doctors that my

son would see so we have been frustrated with that.

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks for the update. Dr. is like the energizer bunny! He must be

close to 80. Liz. Oh, why has San lost so many Drs?

being under his care?

I was. From 1985 until 1998.

I'm out of touch so I don't know what he is doing now but I've only

found two people who got any significant help and that was from

ampligen. I couldn't afford it so that wasn't an option. Even if it

works, it might as well be on the Moon.

The major benefit I obtained was validation from being a

Cheney/ patient but got no symptom relief from any therapy

that was offered. I know a couple of other ex Dr patients

who decided to take a holiday from expensive tests until some

affordable treatment appears. I can put you in touch.

Its my understanding that it wasnt Dr. J. that learned serial corrective plaster casting from Miss Mehta, it was his dad. Apparently, his dad was an orthopaedic surgeon, too.

is being seen by Dr. J. . (Her story is on www.infantilescoliosis.org ) Unfortunately, Bridgette (her mom) is having computer problems and unable to get on the group. Would you like to talk to her by phone? If so, I will forward her #. Bridgette is always willing to chat with other moms. She has been a great advocate for this cause.

Also, Crista has had success in getting appt's quicker by doing a telephone application. Try that for a faster appt.

talk soon,

HRH

I have already posted about our group regarding Dr. 's treatment.

I hope you join with us Cornelia. Yes, Dr. has thus far been very

respectful of us parents/grandparents. He stated to me that he believes many of

us know more than the doctors. He is a great person really.
