Guest guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Hello , I wanted to say how sorry I am that your little boy is sick. I wish I had more to offer and you might have to re post your question -I really want to hear what Andy Cutler has to say about your son problems. I think Andy has heard it all - so repost if he does not answer you soon. There is another group you might want to post your question at here at sid_dsi you might join that group also.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 , Welcome to the list. Do the DDI hair analysis and apply counting rules for the affected twin (and if in the budget for yourself and the asymptomatic twin as well). Can anyone else touch this child's face or does he touch it with anything? Getting close enough for a kiss may mean because of his hypersensitive sense of smell he's smelling something which others may not notice (he may be able to smell the food you ate earlier in the day just exuding from your skin). I'm curious which foods he will eat. Have you heard about NAET? Does he have dark circles under his eyes?

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 , thanks for the reply! He will touch his face...puts his hands in his mouth a lot. But no one else is allowed to. He wipes his mouth if I am wrestling with him and kiss him when he isn't ready for it. I know his sense of smell is acute. I have to brush my teeth before I talk to him in the morning.....giving me a complex! hee hee His main food is toast with butter...wants it with every meal. He will tolerate peanut butter and jelly, pears, macaroni and cheese, soup with noodles only, applesauce, yogurt and crackers. That is really about it (besides candy, of course....but he doesn't get much of it.) No dark circles....I am going to read about NAET right now. Funny, I thought I should get his twin tested as well. He showed some sensitivity when he was younger, but it has since vanished. Interesting, huh? Thanks for the testing information. It will help me immensely to know what I am doing before I go to the doc.God bless..... Shepard <_Shepard@...> wrote: , Welcome to the list.

This may play a significant role in his ability to detox the metals. Out of curiosity do you recall when having the twins vaccinated did the doc usually do them in the same order, i.e. twin A always first? Does either twin have mercury amalgam dental fillings? > It will help me immensely to know what I am doing before I go to the doc.God bless.....<BR> =======================================================<BR> <BR> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Is he thin, anxious, hyperactive, stress intolerant? Hyperacute senses of smell, taste, and being extra sensitive to pain are signs of an adrenal problem (among about 1,000,000 other possible conditions). Andy . . .. > , thanks for the reply!

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 , I also wondered too about whether or not M had more viruses or fewer viruses than his twin... some of the autistic kids on the boards have not been sick in YEARS, which is a sign of an abnormal immune system... but if he has been sick MORE than his twin, then it is possible that his immune system is weak/dysfunctional and he may not be dealing with things well and that could be contributing to how his body is responding to the food dyes/toxins/chemical triggers. I also am wondering if some " anxiety " is connected to his sensitivities in that he anticipates things happening, which then puts his body into more of a fight/flight problem and that starts a whole chain of events that then MAKE him even more sensitive to the odors of food/seeing people eating, etc. W -- In , " Shepard " <_Shepard@e...> wrote: > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 12, 2003 Report Share Posted May 12, 2003 My son has sound sensitivity again with his fingers in his ears. He has had it off and on since he was first diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder 8 years ago. I notice it whenever he is " detoxing " such as chelation or treating viruses. Has anyone come up with anything to lessen sound sensitivity during detoxification? Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
