Guest guest Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Hi everyone. I have a 4.5 yr old ASD son and he has 2 younger sisters. Both of our girls are NT. Our 3 year old daughter is not fully vaccinated, but is way-too-vaccinated, (she had all shots, except for her 15 month shots and beyond...and we are pretty sure our son's " autism " is vaccine injury as his labs show him to be totally immunodeficient and insanly burdened virally). So the guilt does therein lie... Our 3 yr old has aversions to clothing and for a few years now I blamed that on sensory issues and vaccines (to protect myself from disappointment)...and now that enough time has passed - I think I have pinned that to a behavioral response. If I give her a choice of 3 outfits rather than the choice of wearing clothes or not, she choses an appropriate outfit and stays dressed all day now!!! Other than those outbursts to wearing clothes, we have always seen academic gains, social gains really typical and pleasing (you know the stuff you pull the video camera out for). She has held onto an action when she gets excited that I feel is learned from her older brother. She holds her hands near her armpits and wiggles her fingers (it seems like a mild version of my son's hand flapping that he did a few years ago). I try to block it when I can and encourage a more acceptable action for excitement, but she usually tends to do the hand thing. I have read some of you treating your kids who are NT with " quirks. " I would appreciate any opinions. If you are using biomed approaches with NT kids with one or two quirky behaviors...what do you think is a good starting point? My gut says if she has issues it would be from vaccines and that possibly starting with vits and mins, then moving to colostrum for the vaccinated viruses and immune damage, then if necessary moving to transfer factor (working well for my son)...then if issues continue move to antivirals... Thanks in advance! ~ P.S. Baby girl is very perfect developmentally (NO VACCINES even though she was 6 weeks premature born last august)...no worries...and to you expecting moms...I did not get the RSV vaccine and she still has not had even one cold even though our kids have been sick several times! I wonder why the unvaccinated preemie is the healthiest one of us all!?! ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ The all-new beta Fire up a more powerful email and get things done faster. http://new.mail.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 This is just my opinion from the viewpoint of being mercury poisoned myself and discovering that my NT daughter is most likely mercury poisoned as well. By the time I was sure that chelation would help her, and by the time I understood how to chelate safely, she was 18 years old and it is not easy to convince an 18 year old to chelate never mind getting her to stop moving long enough to hear how to do it. If there is mercury in the brain it won't just fall out. It has to be chelated out. Removing the mercury with chelation with low doses of ALA (using Andy's protocol, the ALA has to be dosed at 3 h intervals to be safe!!) would carry less risk as compared to leaving the mercury in the brain for the person's lifetime. If chelation starts with doses at the low end of Andy's dosing schedule range and very gradually the dose is increased with time, you will be able to tell if metals are being moved out from the symptoms at the end of the round. End of round fatigue means that metals are being removed, and the metals that are removed won't be able to do any further damage (to that child) once they are out. Chelate kids using the most gentle, safe approach and the appropriate diet and supplement support while they are still young.

Hey , I guess I'd start with a hair test to get a clearer picture of what you're dealing with. My girl is actually quirk-free, but her hair test was *ugly. So I'm chelating her off and on to prevent future illness as much as anything. Her only symptom was recurrent yeast infections, and that's gotten much better with chelation. I have her on the basic list of supps + CLO and that probably helps too. I put her on Houston enzymes but no change so I took her off. Haven't thought about antivirals...hmmm.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Hi , I'm a chelating adult, and I'm also chelating my 2 NT kids, ages 8 & 10. My youngest kid was a moody, explosive toddler and that is what started us on this journey. The long and short of it is that she wasn't exactly outgrowing her tantrum-y behavior, and I was getting increasingly concerned. We stumbled across HNI enzymes thanks to an online friend in 2004. Big, big improvement! I still didn't " get " what mercury or autism had to do with us, y'know? I FINALLY got around to doing a hair test on my youngest, in addition to my oldest, and myself (only because my youngest protested that she was the only one). Well, we all met the counting rules! I read Andy's books, and began to skim this list. It allllll began to make sense. I had had a lot of amalgams. 3 RhoGam shots. Booster shots as an adult. The kids had been vax'd. Come on! Why wouldn't we be affected in some negative way even if we didn't have autism, or Asperger's or a serious illness (yet!). Andy says chelation is often a family project. It is here. The girls and I are going first, then we'll check out dh. IMO, if there has been a history of exposure, it's definitely worth considering a hair test, doing a check list of symptoms, and chelating to avoid not only current health problems, but problems in the future. Chelation is simple and straightforward when your health is relatively good, and you're not trying to manage a lot of severe poisoning symptoms at the same time. in Illinois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 We are chelating an NT kids also. She has alwayse been " mostly Normal " . It seems logical that any vaxed kid might have viral issues. And that even though you only vaxed her partly, those vaccines still contained metals...aluminum and some Hg. Any odd behavior is worth checking into. Maybe hair testing her to be sure she is not Hg or metal toxic. They can get metal load from your in utero. Also, my research shows that any of us vaxed is immuno compromised and could benefit from antivirals and such. So it makes sense to treat you NT kid with vites/minerals etc. It certainly can't hurt. You can also test her hair if you wish to see if metals are an issue. The mention of adversion to clothes....this is my son entirely! He turned up to be lead/aluminum toxic, along with a few other metals. This is improving with treatment. I think the plan you listed below is worthwhile! Unvaxed kids do have a fully intact immune system and are healthier. This is why your youngest tends to not get sick. > > Hi everyone. > > I have a 4.5 yr old ASD son and he has 2 younger sisters.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Consider a hair elements test from DDI with counting rules applied. Identify and reduce/remove sources of exposure.

We saw glimpses of good stuff right away (within one or two rounds), and at the end of ten rounds I asked skeptical dh what he thought and he said " keep chelating " . 43 rounds later, and she is remarkably better. I wouldn't have described her as exactly unhappy before, but wow---she is so much happier now! And confident. And easy to be around. And more flexible. Of course, without her being so damn difficult all of the time, we're ALL happier. I'm glad she's been able to shake her role as the trouble maker in the family. I'm sure to outsiders it looks like she has really matured over the last year. We know better. I will say that the improvements we've seen have not been linear. Meaning, it's not like week after week she just gets better and better. Overall, there is improvement, but sometimes it feels like a couple steps back, couple steps forward, stall, etc. It's important to understand the natural progression of detox. See pg. 52 of Amalgam Illness. There is improvement, a stall or worsening, then slow improvement again. I'm also feeling significantly better in mood & energy level than a year ago. I also knew by the end of ten rounds that I wanted to continue chelating. in Illinois Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Thanks for your detailed reply. You give me much hope. I think that your experience is also relevant to people like myself who are trying to recover kids who are extremely high functioning, but still so very affected and unable to function. Although I did not vaccinate , and you absolutely can't tell that anything is wrong with him by looking, he is very sick in so many ways, metabolically, behaviorally, etc. I also fully believe that had I vaccinated, he might have been low functioning/non- verbal... I would like to type up our hair test results and see if those of you who are good at reading them, can tell me what you think.
