Does this look like casein sensitivity.In the last few days atleast twice my wife has done this and we are trying to see if its some sorta casein effect. He's having a screaming fit (which BTW seems to have increased when we restarted MB12 after 3+ weeks of being off it) ... and we haven't figured out why he's screaming ... and she offers him ice cream or somehting and he seems to calm down before during and after he eats it. Other times we have also calmed him down by giving him what he wants, or letting him scream it out - when he has mis behaved. So its not always sweet/dairy. Srinath, When he has these fits, does it seem like all communication has shut down? For instance, it is obvious to you that he can't comprehend what you are saying to him (his receptive skills declined?) The reason why I ask is that when Helon accidentally gets dairy, that is her reaction. She doesn't develop any physical reactions; it is only behavioral. Before the diet infraction, you could present her with choices, juice or soymilk, and she will verbally tell you her desires. However, after the infraction, it seems her thought process is altered and she is unable to make the choice, nor does she seem receptive to what I am saying. So if I present her with her choices (visually) she would flip out because she sees an item that she doesn't want. Of course, this was last year before we started the biomed treatments (we actually removed dairy for a year before starting the biomed just because we noticed she had a negative behavioral reaction it it). I sometimes scream for ice cream, too. So that's not all that unusual. You don't say how old you little guy is. I don't know about the MB12 especially since his BTW (whatever that is) seems to have increased since you started it back up. Are those shots? I am suspicious of whatever it is that has increased his agitation via screaming fits, especially since you stopped and then started it back up. Bodies sometimes have a hard time adjusting to changes--especially autistic bodies. I don't really go along with this casein sensitivity thing. I think milk and cheese (in moderation) are important in any child's diet. I know sometimes I really crave milk and cheese and other times it doesn't appeal to me at all. I think the body knows what it needs and lets you know it. Right now my body is really craving fresh fruits and vegetables at the farmers' markets. Soon an abundance of peaches and tomatoes will be available and I can't wait. All those fresh enzymes are so good for you and make you so healthy. But you have to lay off the sugar and goodies in order to really appreciate how good tasting they really are. I think that during this time of year mostly all your diet should be of these fruits and vegetables. Like BLT's and zucchini squash cut in 1/2" slices (or so) and slightly browned in a little olive oil on both sides then sprinkled with a little salt (the good salt) and peppered cubed tomatoes. It takes just a couple of minutes to prepare, and it's not fattening at all. Another good choice is an egg omelette with mushrooms and green peppers and onions and maybe a little ham or bacon (cooked first before adding the stirred raw eggs with a little bit of milk and cheese in it). It is just so amazing how much better you feel when you are eating well, especially for little autistic bodies I would think. It may take him awhile for him to develop a taste for it. My Mark used to pick through it and take this and that off to the side and turn up his nose at it, but not any more. He wolves it all down! And he is super healthy due to eating this kind of diet over the years. So that would be my advice. ; Marge, you're so funny. BTW mean "by the way". -CrystalIs is only mb-12 or does it have folinic added to it? When he screams, do you think there might be anything physically bothering him sensory wise or gut wise (ie may feel bloated or have a gas)? At one time when we were on MB-12 Sasha acted like that and wouldn't sleep either. He happened to be extremely yeasty at the time and we went off of MB-12, treated the yeast, started back and he was fine. But then again it could be casein too. Try giving soy ice cream instead and see if it continues?

[/QUOTE] If a toddler has a tantrum, and this is reinforced with ice cream or some other highly desired item, you can count on more tantrums -- as in this case, screaming brings forth the desired item. This is commonly seen in toddlers in general, and more so in children that have not yet developed a functional means of communication to make their needs known. This is a fairly basic parenting issue, and has nothing to do with casein, biomed, or mb12. You might consider actively teaching him a method of communication, as well as seeking some parenting classes designed for parents of very young children.
Its not that simple - he's usually lost or dropped a toy or a stop sign or cingular sign or some or other somewhere and is running crazy trying to find it. Not simply somehitng we wants and must have. He used to have rights to my watch ... a 200 metre seiko slig of a watch ... near indestructible ... but he threw it 1-2 times and he's not getting it any more ... so no reinforcement - typically he also screams when hungry ... and we never know when he can be ... he wont eat ... 10 mins later he'd scarf down far less appealing food ... He is more vocal, and does say stuff, even if we cant make it out. Rarely does the screaming start till after its in coherently repeated a few more time ... each one less coherent than the last ... Communication doesn't seem like its shut down, listening or speaking ... he'll hear and react to what we say, and when its still not fruitful, he'll scream more ... He'd hear us say "we dont know where you tossed it santosh" wait a few seconds and start a non directed wailing ... as in he has no one to blame but himself, and he just gives up and just starts to cry. Its sometimes possible to snap him out of it by giving him choclate or dairy. On occassion he'd eat it and go right back to screaming. But twice in the last 5 days he has had icecream or choclate and forgotten what he was wailing about. We are expecting the food allergies test any time now ... lets see. I do think he can get sensitive to it again - especially if its related to toxicity in his liver etc. Sounds to me like this is one of the times to just "look the other way", as time has a way of changing and improving their behavior. Just make sure he gets a proper diet; and don't expect too much out of him as he will progress at his own rate and in his own time.Haveing lpd issue makes communication harder than those with out lpd. Daniel improves each year. He is much better on his diet/vitamins also. Beware you can have allergies to vitamins/minerals also. Moderation in all things. That's my motto. Not too much of anything. Humpalump,There is no committee, there is only a friendship that develops after repeated attacks from you and your pit bulls. I didn't pick a fight, I confronted you because you lied and you continue to lie, tell the truth once in a while, and I won't have any issues to address with you. I'll whine if I want to. And I'm so happy I provided an activity for you to practice your addition skills. Maybe if you actually READ some of the posts you were so busy counting, you might learn something other than how to bait,twist words, and fabricate. Yeah, I get off the computer for bathroom breaks and sometimes for a snack. Don't harp on the Tamiflu thing, I don't need to do "homework" on something that doesn't concern me, considering the fact that I don't plan on ever taking it. Ignoring her seems to work ... cos she's never got anything to say ... except to say that we're doing it all wrong ... fact is ... our kids are in a position to have it done "wrong" and still gain ground ... hers are too old for that ... so its a case of sour grapes. I really think sashasmom and the whole cataloged recovery case is going to put a huge dent in the future plans to get government $$$ that the older kids need ... so they really are begining to freak out. Yea and Missy also. getting press is a great way to be a victim of your own success ... or making her (winnie-hefalump-whoever) a victim of your success ... All they need is now more people verifying that not only are the treatments effective, you can have a 100 different paths to the same effect. Now If there was government grant money for each online persona you create ... winnie would totally totally cash in ... man it must take serious time to keep these persona in a line ... I cant remember the 3-4 ID's I have and the 3-4 passwords associated with it - and no I didn't create the ID's. I use the Id's from my team in several cases for work and opening and looking at vendors tech sites. Jeeeezzzz....Enough already. Are all you people here just to argue? Not that I visit this section of the forum often, I do like to keep up at least with vitamin/diet info. Weeding through this school-yard fighting / name-calling is beyond irritating anymore, it's downright ridiculous. Please grow UP, or go somewhere else to fight. I agree. He (or she) who is convinced against his(her) will is of the same opinion still. I think we are all under stress, as it is a stressful world. In my case, I can only show and explain what I have learned through my extensive searching (and by paying attention) and to divulge what I believe may be coming about. And I am not paranoid nor do I speak lightly. We were fooled with the vaccines that made our children autistic and I don't want to ever be fooled again. My son Mark is too precious to ever let him be a victim again--as is the rest of my family. And I have a pretty good batting average as to what I have uncovered (things I haven't talked about). For our children's sake, we need to have our eyes open in all areas and at all times. Decisions are being made in our government and legislature that are often unconstitutional and to our detriment. Diet and vitamin info is important. And so is making sure our children receive the best care and education. All it takes is to not be paying attention for everything to come tumbling down. One of our founding fathers wrote, "The price of freedom is eternal vigilence." That means in all areas. There are some wonderful people in this world who are caring and altruistic; and there are also the "other kind", who are greedy, caniving, and just plain evil. Unfortunately, there are many in our government who are of the "other kind." Nazi Germany is an example of what can happen if we don't pay attention. So pay heed, as it's ours and our children's future that is at stake. OK peptide tests came back, he's high on the casein sensitivity - as in he is sensitive to it. My question is, do behaviours get influenced even before the peptides show sensitivity or is it that sensitivity is showing but his behaviour isn;t altered much at all. I hope I worded it right ... which comes at a lower sensitivity level - behaviour or peptide test ??? Gluten - he is insensitive to that ... way below the mark. [QUOTE=srinath]He is more vocal, and does say stuff, even if we cant make it out. Rarely does the screaming start till after its in coherently repeated a few more time ... each one less coherent than the last ... Are you using PECS or sign language with him? I mean is this something behavioral/frustration or you think he's in physical pain? When Luke used to have a milk infraction, he used to hum and have a high pitched scream. So I know milk does cause vocalization/screaming issues with some kids. I remember when I was quite young I couldn't eat a fried egg (a protein) in the morning; and if we were traveling I would have to errp it up on the side of the road. And I don't think I really had an egg infraction, nor was I allergic to eggs. My system just needed to adjust, and it finally did (and as I think back, it very possibly could have been as a result of the vaccines I was forced to take as a young child, as I didn't like to eat at all and was quite skinny). And so I think that's probably why Mark was so picky with his food in his early years--his system needed to adjust to his vaccine-induced autistic body, as do so many autistic children. Now I'm not allergic to anything except synthetic pollution such as nerve gas and other smokestack emissions, which make me sicker than sick (burning leaves doesn't bother me at all). That's why we had to move. It effected Mark adversely, too. For months at a time he would be sickly with a runny nose. If I got him out of the city for a little vacation, he would suddenly get all better. At one time, the school was very concerned and thought he had some terminal disease. But it was caused by the noticeably increased air pollution in our area (from 1995 on) where we had had really good air before. And I hated them for ruining our air! And if I go back to the city for a visit, I get really sick again and have problems with my legs and walking. And Mark doesn't feel good either. So that's why I think air and water purification is so important for autistic kids and should be installed in all the schools. AND, AS I THINK THIS ALL OVER, I HAVE A NEW HYPOTHESIS: As a result of our childhood vaccinations, Mark and I are both probably anaphylactic as are many others who were vaccinated. That means that as a result of complications of being injected with cross-reacting proteins, certain foods and even pollution (as in my case) causes an anaphylactic reaction and can be deadly. My reaction: I could feel the nerve gas emissions when it first started up (in 1996), and I had to wear a cloth around my nose and mouth when others had no clue and noticed nothing. And my life was miserable as it permeated my home and made my skin, nose, and eyes burn. I had to keep constant steam on the stove in order to breathe, and I could see the nerve gas residue floating in the steaming pot of water. It also dirtied up a lot of things, and put cobwebs [not from spiders] on my cupboard door hinges, due to the action of the swamp cooler which brought it in. After going to state officials and complaining often (which did no good whatsoever) I came to the conclusion that if I didn't move, I wasn't going to make it. Interestingly, nerve gas is derived from pesticides (reference: EPA and pesticides and disabled children). And so, a little research took me back to the World War I Spanish flu epidemic cause by the vaccines that soldiers were forced to take. As a result, lots of people died (around 50 million worldwide) , but nearly all of those who weren't vaccinated came through safely without getting sick. Evidence points to the fact that even polio (infantile paralysis) was an after effect of the vaccine. And now our officials are preparing for another "1918 Spanish flu"-type epidemic. HHS secretary Michael Leavitt has allocated at least $4 billion for vaccines in anticipation of another "bird flu" epidemic. So, when it comes time, will you and your children be lining up for your Tamiflu "bird flu" shot? For more information, please check out: http://www.proliberty.com/observer/20060611.htm and http://www.proliberty.com/observer/20051017.htm and www.vran.org, and www.vaclib.org/news/vaccinenotflu.htm Srinath, your boy sounds like he has a full on case of the Threes. The only thing that cures it is TIME.No Marge, we won't be lining up for any Tamiflu shot. It probably wouldn't even be the right strain anyway. We won't be taking anymore vaccines. Period. Srinath: The first prototype nerve gas incinerator was built out in the Pacific on an island south of Hawaii (bear with me as I don't remember everything exactly). Even though live nerve gas accidentally escaped several times, the DOD decided this prototype was safe. And so in partnership with EEG out of Las Vegas (connected with underground atomic bombs in Nevada), in the early 1990's they proceeded to build a second $billion dollar nerve gas incinerator just SW of Salt Lake City, Utah in Tooele County's Rush Valley (just over the Oquirrh mountains from SL) to take care of the 43% of the nation's stockpile of nerve gas that was buried/stored there including Sarin, mustard gas, and VX plus rockets loaded with same. In July of 1996, they did a surrogate burn (simulated n.g.) and I instantly knew what it was I had been searching for in that SW corner of the SL valley for a couple of years; I just knew there was something evil going on there. I had even tried to drive up Butterfield Canyon, but the state had it blocked off with large concrete buttresses. Then, on August 22, 1996, they started up the nerve gas incinerator and it took a few days for it to reach my home, which was over the mountain in a NE direction (as the wind blows) and about 25 miles away as the crow flies. I remember I was sitting at my kitchen table and started experiencing the virulent reactions I described earlier. Previously, I also had noticed some other wierd things going on in that corner. I continued to get sicker and sicker and by Thanksgiving, I couldn't even stand the smoke of the turkey roasting in the oven. Then some other people woke up and started protesting also. But to no avail. (The same person who is now head of the HHS was governor of Utah then, and he refused to do anything about it--so that tells you something about his character.) And even though there was several leaks of live nerve gas, incineration (including the rockets) continued (follow the money). A continual steam from my large pot of hot water on the stove made it possible for me to bear it until I could get out of there--which took a while. Then they decided to build nerve gas incinerators in Oregon and several other states where there were stockpiles of nerve gas, even though they could have neutralized it in several ways and not put it into our air. And I don't know how many more have been built, but you could find that out on the internet. They said it would be dismantled when all the nerve gas was eliminated, but I believe they are now planning to burn other things there when the incinerator is available probably in 2012. I'm sure it's making a lot of people sick. They say Salt Lake has a very high rate of cancer. Diane - we aren't doing pecs or sign, we dont need to, and he doesn't have the patience to. He will say it ... fairly coherently ... but he has some made up words and some that he's incoherent ... Marge - Nerve gas. Where, when. Cool. Srinath. I know TamiFlu has been out for years. I've had to take it once for flu like symptoms. I didn't realize they called it a vaccine for Bird Flu. [QUOTE=sashasmom]I know TamiFlu has been out for years.

A vaccine by definition: : a preparation of killed microorganisms, living attenuated organisms, or living fully virulent organisms that is administered to produce or artificially increase immunity to a particular disease Tamiflu is a drug (oseltamivir phosphate) and is not the same as a vaccine, nor a substitute for a flu vaccine.

Ok so they call it a "vaccine" for the bird flu but it's in a pill form. http://www.tamifluvaccine.net/ So are these people saying that you should take an anti viral like Tamiflu before you get sick from the bird flu? As a prevention? Do we need to start taking Mortin every day to "prevent" a head ache? Guess there will be a "vaccine" for everything whether it be a shot or a pill. Crystal, Tamiflu has been out for years -- it is used to treat flu if diagnosed early in the progression of the illness, and also as a prevention in the event someone has been exposed (for example, living in the same household and caring for someone with the illness). Concerning what "they" will think of next, I assume you are referring to the participants in the global conspiracy, and I wouldn't have any idea, not subscribing to the various conspiracy theories. As far as any eminent danger from any strain of flu, avian or otherwise, I am not that concerned. However, in the unlikely event that my neighbors contract avian flu, I suppose I would consider standing in line for Tamiflu.
lol, Diane, my first post on this board was in response to a swipe at my username on another board by one of your "committee" members. Your first post on this board was an attack on me (so don't get all righteous about ignoring posts, nor lay the Bible verses on me): Oh Shrewster, I'm sorry to hear the "Sleep your way to a Slimmer You" isn't working out for you. You just can't trust what's in that New Scientist magazine huh? http://www.autism-pdd.net/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8190& ;PN=1&TPN=3 If you pick a fight, don't whine if your nose gets bloodied. You have already posted 10 times on the AW board today -- and several times on this board as well. Do you ever get off the computer? Tsk Tsk Sorry, there is no "Tamiflu vaccine." Tamiflu is not a "vaccine" in any form. Do your homework. Lets hope she listens to you ... cos she sure doesn't listen to any one yet ... Her research is limited to the sties that are setup by or approved by big pharma. if its not there its invalid ... obviously they are never going to cop to anything ... Yea fish causes autism, cell phone batteries cause autism ... yes of course ... never do vaccines ... and that's what she buys ... even though they all have the same ingridient that has been known to cause autism.

I think we "do homework" in different places. Ignorance is not bliss. The HHS/Secretary, Michael Leavitt News Release http://www.hhs.gov/new/press/2006pres/20060112.html states "President Bush has outlined a coordinated government strategy that includes the establishment of the new International Partnership on Avian and Pandemic Influenza, stockpiling of vaccines and antiviral medications, expansion of early-warning systems domestically and abroad, as well as new funding and initiatives for local and state level preparedness." In this HHS news release, vaccines is listed first and antiviral medications are listed second. Vaccines are usually given by "shots" and medications are usually given by "pills". Even under http://www.tamifluvaccine.net entitled "Tamiflu Vaccines" It lists a link to "Flu Shot Locations". The people who lined up to take their "shots" during the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918 were fools. And they let fear and ignorance lead them to their downfall. The flu was in the (and was caused by the) vaccines (and not in the air) and that's what caused the pandemic--THE VACCINES! This bird flu vaccine hoopla is even being espoused by the World Health Organization--so it's a global thing. Revelations in the Bible states a quarter of the world's population will expire. This pandemic pre-emptive scare would be a really good way to get the ball rolling (just as it was done in the Spanish flu pandemic which supposedly is coming back in the form of the "avian bird flu" anticipated pandemic). So, Caveat Emptor!

It's illegal for the jury to be bought and sold or to sell out. All evidence must be presented, and all the pros and cons must be weighed. Plus personal testimonies get an extra point. Dont look at me ... I am being funny ... dont take this too seriously. But trust me ... the real info is in the autism-mercury, autism NCD and chelating kids sites. Its as though the FDA and CD will blame fish mercury, battery mercury and environmental mercury well before the vaccine mercury ... maybe that where it came from ... Nothing is above scrutiny. In between chores and errands I am still researching natural cures and remedies for good health, and all the other issues we have talked about. It may take me a while because I want to be thorough in my investigation in order to be accurate as possible in my final analysis. [QUOTE=sashasmom]<FONT face=Arial size=2>Off to bed.

Hope everything goes well.....good thoughts and prayers to Sasha. Yea ... and let us know. And good luck to you and sasha. I would be interested if you see any improvement. And if chelation helps. Off to bed. We start IV chelation tomorrow. See you later Diane and Srinath. I'll send updates when we get back. [QUOTE=AnAnonyMom]Jeeeezzzz....Enough already. This post was about finding out if I could have a casein sensitive kid. You'd have to go back and see where it ran off course. I suggest you start doing that with every thread ... and you'll see an eye opening pattern ... Chelation really does work. It accelerates the dumping of mercury, and in some cases gets at mercury that may not be ever excreted. Crystal has done several rounds of chelation, this isn't the first. We have done it for 3+ months with DMSA and lupron and in fact before that we started with NDF in Dec 05. The key to smart chelation is I believe to do it in short bursts. I dunno I am still figuring it out. but our Doc is planning to take him off the chelator DMSA shortly and keep him on lupron. The metals will get to the kidneys and liver and stomach etc with lupron and as they do his poryphyrin leves will start to go up. Those dropped recently for my son and that may indicate that his detoxifying organs are relatively empty right now. I am thinking we do dmps next, but we may try a few more rounds of DMSA with ALA added in. What is the process of chelation? Is it pills? is it a type of exterior treatment? Also, what are DMSA and NDF? What are poryphyrin leves? Thanks. Chelation can be a cream, oral (capsule or pills) or IV. Chelation is just a term for a medication given with the explicit purpose of pulling out something harmful. DMSA, DMPS and several others are the different chemicals used for that. they each pull a different profile of metals as well as have a preference sequence. DMSA will pull zinc before selenium before copper - rough example. BTW these are public domain chemicals, as in no one holds a patent on these, they were made in the USSR and pretty much were tossed to the public when they fell. Since 1992 when FDA approved DMSA its been the agent of choice amongst US doctors in the metal detox arena - confirmed with ER doctor non DAN affiliated 30 year ER veteran who has treated metal workers for many many years with it. Long safety record in US. DMPS - good record in Europe, but non FDA approved in US. Narrower profile of metals and has great pulling power for mercury. Does not cross BBB. NDF is a type of nano divided algae, which extracts mercury as well as pesticides and what not from your body. NCD or zeolite is a type of clay that also does something similar. these 2 are considered very non intrusive ... as in they dont yank out stuff your body needs like zinc, selenium and calcium. There is also ALA, fairly non intrusive, very effective at crossing into the brain, but risky if your body burden of mercury is high. It would take it to the brain ... My son has a low body burden at this time. Which is why we are looking to ALA. of course NCD is also in my mind. And NDF is always on. Good stuff for everyday detox. Poryphyrins are what your body makes in response to toxins in the liver and kidneys and intestines. If they start to go up, you have a lot of toxins collecting there. There is a correlation to the exact metal and what poryphyrin is high. You monitor those to know when to chelate. Chelating when those are high increases the chances of the bad stuff getting out, and cuts down the good stuff getting out. Feel free to ask, but lot of this and much more is on autism-mercury and autism NCD. Those are seriously moderated and there are no arguments or fights. Like I have said its not a biomed democracy ... Its your kid, you need to do the research. There is a lot more ... a whole lot more. crystal (sashasmom) has a good few rounds of different chelators under her belt. Totally worth listening to her and looking up her website. ChelatingKids2 as well. The jury is still out where I am concerned. And I am checking more on it. |
