Guest guest Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 My daughter is 3 years old and has still not been diagnosed with ASD. Her speech is severely delayed and she has some stimming issues. Last year she came down with Bell's Palsy (paralysis on one side of her face) for a few weeks. The doctor said that she most likely had Herpes Simplex and he had never seen Bell's Palsy in someone so young. She has been sick at least once every two months since she was born. . Has anyone been through a similar situation?? Does she seem like an ideal candidate for Valtrex?? We are going to see our DAN doc this Thursday and I am wondering if we should try to pursue this with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Ok, , you have me very curious about TORCH. I actually have a "What is this?" folder for posts about things I've never heard of and TORCH is the most recent addition. ...but could you give it to me in a nutshell?
