Wheezing/ was Re: Is hereditary autism curable?

October 3, 2006

If this were my child I would not allow the shot, even if mercury

free. Live viruses are just as bad for our kids as the mercury.

Does he drink milk? One of my sons used to have terrible chronic

wheezing, which required breath treatments, all the time until I

removed milk from his diet. You may also want to consider treating

him with some of the natural anti-viral supplements and see if that

helps eliminate the problem.

I know it is really scary to watch your child struggle to breath.

However, in my opinion, any vaccine will potentially cause more

unwelcomed problems. Better to try to boost his immune system

naturally.

> Sorry it's been so long since I posted... things have been a little

nuts. We took (4, ASD) to the emergency room last night for

severe wheezing and trouble breathing. They gave him a breathing

treatment and some medicine and sent him home. We did a follow up

with the pediatrician today. She thinks that was he has isn't

asthma, but something that presents as similar, is based on an viral

infection, and can be outgrown over time. She really wants him to

get a flu shot this year, and is willing to reserve one of the very

few thimerisol free vaccines for him. I really thought I had more

time to make a final decision regarding more vaccines for him (he was

fully vaccinated before his diagnosis, but does't have anthing due

until he's 5 now.. we put off the 4 year old booster since they're

optional until 5) Does anyone have any experience with this viral-

triggered wheezing? Any advice you can give me? Also, any good

resources for vaccine info in maryland would be greatly appreciated!

really exploded, he is starting imagintive play, he's interacting and

starting to show empathy for his peers. I REALLY don't want to risk

a regression! But, I don't want to risk his health in other aspects

either!
