New and scared

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

I've been thinking and researching this diet for several months now

and I think I'm going to try it for my Autistic son. We are already

on a GFCF, Feingold, and Peanut free diet. It has helped him a lot

but we are still having trouble with bowels.

He is also taking several supplements.

We eat rice everyday in our household and I don't think this is good

for my son anymore. I have already cut back on the rice, pancakes,

waffles, and stuff like that. I've also been trying to get the corn

out of his diet too just to see what happens.

My husband is not very fond of me looking into this diet because of

how restrictive it is..I need help. I need good recipes so my son

will still have food to eat. He doesn't like vegetables or fresh

fruits. I've been trying to hide broccoli in his meat patties. I

also make homeade jello out of 100% fruit juice and pureed blueberries

without any added sugar. That's all I can get into him.

I'm scared of him not eating enough and also scared of the yucky poop

that is supposed to follow with the die off. Does this happen to

everyone?

What tests could we have done to see if my son does have a major GI

problem?

Thanks..sorry for so long..I just need to talk and need some help!
