Just getting started..........

[Guest guest]

Finally after a month of relentlessly pestering our DAN! we got the rx

for Valtrex. We started on Monday. Brief history....Logan was

delayed from birth. I had Group B Strep (not tested for it during

pregnancy) and passed it to her. We were both in the hospital for 2

weeks. I strongly believe this could be the root of her problems.

She was dx w/autism at 18 months. She is 3.7 and non-verbal although

she does babble alot. Due to hypotonia in her ankles she didn't walk

until she was 2.10. Her viral titers were all high, esp. herpes 1 &

2. She has always had alot of fever blisters, so bad on her right

cheek that she has a scar. I could not wait to get her on Valtrex,

but now I am scared because I have such hopes for her improving with

it. Last night she started running a low-grade temp and tonight when

I put her to bed it was 99.4, but she was in a good mood and seemed to

feel fine. She is also on MB12 shots every 3 days. Stan, I

appreciate you and all the others on this group that provide so much

info! Wish us luck,
