that is very interesting Lara
my son has never had strep, but he does have Crohn's Disease, which is autoimmune |
I'm excited!!!
I think it's one of the most interesting things to see Yale come out with this after all these years. Some pieces are in the zigsaw are fitting together. I'm totally excited to read this extract. Hoping to hunt down the rest of it as soon as possible. Edited to add: I guess I should clarify what I mean by being excited and why it's so interesting to me. It's because of my son's history, not my daughter's though. He had a totally different background medical history which included early diagnosis of Sydenham's Chorea (after suspected Rheumatic Fever) and some other things including later diagnosis of ASD. When I say interesting from Yale, I mean immune related. The outcome isn't going to make any difference to how my children are doing now, but it *may* answer a few of my questions I still have about a lot of things that have happened to him. |
Very interesting
Thanks for sharing.

My daughter has TS and my husband is type 1 diabetic, so this is very interesting:

Lara,
This is very exciting!!! It is encouraging that they are looking at these issues, as well. I do think it is a key puzzle piece for many, too. I thought Yale had pooh-poohed the strep connection. Thanks for posting this. Reminds me of the old board and our discussions about this with dkw (aka) and FJ. I hope they are well. Take care, Tessa |

FJ* has helped so many people recognise and treat for pyroluria and dkw has a wealth of knowledge and experience on so many of these deep rooted areas of understanding the ASDs I get really hopeful when I see how much new research and information is coming out to validate what so many have referenced anecdotally. Tessa, did you notice the article in Discover Magazine re autism...that in itself was a breath of fresh air in the way autism tends to be portrayed in the media http://discovermagazine.com/2007/apr...tart:int=0&-C= |
I was thinking about aka when I read and posted that article as well.
G'day to Laurensmom! :Wave-Hello: |
