Guest guest Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Pamela, I may have missed something from a previous post. You said you have been doing DAN for five years and until now your son has been a non responder. Do you mind sharing what he is now responding to? My twin boys are responding to treatments but so so slowly and so slightly. I am just wanting that right treatment that is really going to make a difference.Dana and Garrett, just turned 4, SCD 2 yearsCeliac, ASD, Speech and Motor Apraxia, sensory processing disorder Subject: Re: Question to Pamela or anyone......To: mb12 valtrex Date: Wednesday, June 25, 2008, 1:24 AM >> Yes, any antibiotics can trigger a yeast flare up, including Zithromax.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Dr. Rossignol is our DAN physician, and our son has really benefitted from the treatment protocol initiated at the ICDRC. Check out the practice website at www.icdrc.org for an office phone number or general e-mail contact. The person to talk with there about HBO chambers is Patti Hawkins, who arranges for rentals and purchases.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Hi Dana, The two things that has recently really helped my son are a SSRI (to finally get his anxiety under control) and IVIG. My son is still severely affected by autism and he still has some bad days. But, for the first time, he is "present" with us all the time.
