, I am so very sorry! My family and I will be praying for you. Do you have any praise and/or worship music? That always helps when I'm depressed.

<p>Hello...<br>

<br>

Our son is six, non-verbal (except for a very few words which he <br>

utters reluctantly and with much coaxing/reinforcers<wbr>). His language <br>

is not functional..<wbr>..but he does seem to understand much of what we <br>

say. Same old story....20+ vaccines in his first year and we lost <br>

him.....<br>

<br>

When he was four he participated in a study Montefiore Medical Center <br>

(Bronx, NY) conducted on Brain Endothelial Antibodies in Children <br>

with Language Regression (they took a survey and did a blood draw).<br>

<br>

He had a 48 hr. video EEG (we wondered if he was having seizures in <br>

his sleep). No sign of seizures, but they did say they noticed some <br>

transitory slowing in the left frontal lobe.<br>

<br>

They sent me the abstract of the paper that is going to be presented <br>

at an upcoming neurology conference and under conclusions was the <br>

following:<br>

<br>

" Children with language regression have a high rate of endothelial <br>

autoantibodies even though they are not being measured at <br>

regression. The rates in this study are much higher than in other <br>

studies that have examined all children with autism. The high rate <br>

observed in this population suggests autoimmune mechanisms may be <br>

involved in the pathophysiology of this devastating disorder. If <br>

confirmed, this has implications for novel therapeutic approaches and <br>

pathophysiology.<wbr> " <br>

<br>

Now, I'm not a neurologist.<wbr>....all I am interested in is whether this <br>

information can help me to help my son.<br>

<br>

I've asked to be sent his results. I'm wondering, if he is indeed <br>

affected by " endothelial autoantibodies " at a higher than normal <br>

rate, is there anything I can do to remedy or ameliorate this to help <br>

to normalize his brain function (via supplements, therapies)??<br>

<br>

Many thanks.....<br>

<br>

Hi Helen, Sorry I can not answer your question but I was just wondering if your son has been diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder? My four year old son has been assessed for Sensory Processing Disorder and his OT is pretty sure he has it. We are also waiting on an As diagnosis as his psychologist thinks he is As. I have joined another group that is for parents of kids with sensory issues or SPD. I can give it to you if you like as I have learnt so much from the group. I don't post to often but I do read alot of the posts and I just wanna say this group is great! Estelle.Helen Elder <Bigshoelder@...> wrote: I have a question about the purpose of OT. My son receives OT twice a week for half an hour. He is in first grade. I thought that the main purpose of OT was to implement sensory related therapy. We've been working 7 months to get services in place. While waiting, I've been doing my best to get sensory information in place and learned a few tricks for calming my son, such as brushing, balanced pressure, weighted blankets and an assortment of hand held sensory related items that he can fiddle with when stressed. We also learned that when he was very stressed, immersing himself in the ball pit in the OT room helped to calm him. He has been receiving

formal OT for about 3 weeks now. This week my son has been complaining about going to OT and how he doesn't like to go and does not like the teacher (you know how AS kids can be). Apparently, a big part of his OT is handwriting. He was told that if he did not finish some part if his homework (I'm unclear on what as my son becomes agitated when questioned) he will not be permitted to "play" in OT today. Playing, he tells me, is swinging, playing with the gross motor type equipment and getting in the ball pit. Estelle x x x

Answers - Got a question? Someone out there knows the answer. Try

it now.

Is the therapy at school? If so, schools only concentrate on academic related OT.

--Playing, he tells me, is swinging, playing with the gross motor

These are all sensory related activities. But the purpose of OT is

to improve the quality of play, work, and self care (these are the

occupations that are affected by AS). But even before the therapist

can begin working on the goal of the day, she must create trust. So

what looks like play is developing trust to work on the occupations

affected by AS.

The standard amount of days home is 10 days. If the child pushes

She was also very flat chested, but you must know her, cuz everything else checks out. I hadn't wanted to mention the moles w/ 2"long black coarse hairs, but that's her. Was she wearing more than a bra and boy shorts when you saw her?

Hello Nick,

I have taken both Cat's Claw and Noni. Cat's Claw is south American and did not seem to help me much with my fibro which I am told might be Lyme, shucks. Noni is wonderful for inflammation and tastes terrible but work works well for my arthritis. I have not heard about Samento? Can you tell me more?

ann

[low dose naltrexone] OT

I am sorry to post OT again. As many of you know I will be having a Lyme test done soon. In prep for it I have been doing some research. I ran across an article about herbal treatments for MS and Lyme called Cats Claw, Samento and Noni. Have any of you heard of these? These articles also mentioned Bowen labs are they bad?
