undiagnosed but I suspect..

[Guest guest]

that my Max who just turned 7 is mildly autistic. He has some

symptoms but not " enough " ....

gaze never really meets your eyes unless you insist, and then it

doesn't hang there very long, (when I ask him why he says " it hurts " ,

speech delay until we had major therapy. all he could say at age 3

was all the difficult dinosaur names, no sentences, not many other

words

muscle tone is not good

voracious appetite

I can't remember if there is anything else that corresponds to the

symptoms, but here is the problem I am dealing with now:

He is 4' tall and 81 pounds, and I really need to control that

appetite. He comes home from school and wants to eat more than I did

the whole day. He cries when I don't give him food as he tells me he

hurts so much.

I am trying to give him a multivitamin, calcium, fish oil, cod liver

oil, acidophilus, and zinc. Is there anything else I should consider?

Please help. If you all can think of anything else I should be

doing, even non-dietary, I would love to hear it.

Thank you,
