I am the mother of five children, the youngest Michael or Mickie as we like to call him, was diagnosed with Autism at 22 months old.After years of early intervention therapy, which didn't work. I learned through trial and error that he had underlying biomedical problems that culminated in Autism like symptoms, including, chronic digestive problems since the age of one, when he received the MMR vaccine.
With biomedical interventions, gfcf and SCD diets, Mickie's body is starting to heal. Some of the most severe symptoms, head banging, night waking, self injurious behaviors are almost gone.
He lost all speech by the age of three. He is now 10 years old and has just started to say mama, for the first time in almost 8 years.

I have started a group to discuss information about autistic enterocolitis. Not all kids with autism have this condition, but I know many do, including my Mickie.
I have this group also on Yahoo groups.

For those who are unafamiliar with autistic enterocolitis, Google Dr. Andrew Wakefield. This man has taken so much crap while standing up for our kids...

Thank you for starting this group! I feel as though Jameson could very well have this too and I am trying to get him into a doctor who will look into it rather than to tell me that his stools are "normal" and once he heard me say Jameson has a PDD-NOS diagnosis, completely tune me out. The doc obviously thought that I thought just because Jameson has autism, there must be something wrong with his gut. My husband and I were very upset after leaving that GI doc. We have also taken Jameson off of cows milk and he does not seem to be in as much pain but I know I can do more!

It is kind of like irritable bowl syndrome. It is linked to the MMR and Mercury and is very painful. My poor Mickie had diahrrea for years until I took him off milk, but he is still in pain, though not as bad as he used to. I remember reading somewhere that autism can appear to be a malabsorption syndrome and, in some cases, can be managed through special idiosyncratic diets and supplementation. Once the digestive tract is affected, the infant is at rick for developing a Chronic Malabsorption Syndrome and malnutrition that affects all systems in the body including reproduction, detoxification, immunity, glucose metabolism and hormonal system. I remember writing this down on his biomedical log in June of 2003-I was worried and I was right. So far quite a few of those things hold true for Mickie.
