Would stopping supplements cause him to > act out like that? May well be the cause. I suggest people not stop supps for tests, doctors not order this, and people generally think about the implications of jerking their kids on and off supps, meds, etc. Almost no doc would jerk a kid of any MEDICATION for a test. Supplements are chemicals too. The pills don't know there is a legal difference between the different chemicals. > Thank you, > M > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Aggression in autistics may be cuased by high testosterone levels. Have you ever tested your child for precocious puberty? SUggest that you at least test the child. andrewhallcutler <AndyCutler@...> wrote: > > Hello, > My son really lost his temper today and was going to punch my daughter. > We had stopped supplements yesterday so we could retest tomorrow > morning blood work and urine.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Thank you Andy and Abid, This aggression was not usual, very out of the ordinary. We have not tested him for this. I don't see any other signs that he would be. Re: [ ] Re: aggression with stopping sups? Aggression in autistics may be cuased by high testosterone levels.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Maybe his aggressive outburst was related to anxiety over knowing he was going to be " Poked " the next day. _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Abid Khan Sent: Friday, December 29, 2006 7:29 AM Subject: Re: [ ] Re: aggression with stopping sups?
