Carolyn, I noticed this from Claire's post above: ascorbic acid may be converted to oxalic acid, which can lead to kidney stones. There is a low probability that elevated vitamin C will cause kidney stones if oxalic acid is in the normal range." Are you supplementing Vit C? Did your Doc recommend reducing? I wonder if anyone who has had testing, DIDN'T show low glutithione. kim

ad ccl, Sorry to hear removing the antibiotic wasn't successful, but good that the squeaks are diminishing again. Will be watching for further updates. Kim

Jennifer, This is from an article I was just reading this morning. Alternative Medicine Review, Dec, 2002 by Parris M. Kidd Abstract Clonidine is a presynaptic alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist that up-regulates adrenergic transmission. (123) It may reduce hyperactivity, impulsivity, and irritability in the short term; but tolerance develops over time. Adverse effects include drowsiness, decreased activity, and hypotension. Its B:W ratio of 2.2:1 is better than most other autism drugs. What this describes, is what happened with my sons. Clonidine did help my oldest son, with sleep issues, get to sleep, and also appeared to help lessen the frequency or intensity of tics, but it was short term. The neurologist wanted me to up the dose. I knew functioning at school would be impossible, if we upped the dose enough to control tics. I would really encourage you to follow Chemar's advice. Become as educated as possible, find a knowledgable alternative physician, and get to the heart of what maybe going on with your son physically, instead of trying to treat symptoms. Kim

Unbelievable August 1, 2006 at 07:11:10 TeenScreen - Normal Kids Labeled Mentally Ill by Evelyn Pringle Despite years of public outcry, based on recommendations by President Bush's New Freedom Commission to screen all school children for mental illness, TeenScreen is now being administered in the nation's public school system and children are being regularly diagnosed with one, or more, disorders chosen from the close to 400 listed in the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV" (DSM), also known as the psychiatric "Billing Bible." http://www.opednews.com/articles/genera_ev...n___normal_.htm

AZ, Since your daughter is 7, more than likely, she received a dose of MMR at 1 yr. and again prior to school entry, or around age 5. You shouldn't need a booster at 12. Apparently, some of the Dr.s didn't adopt the recommendation of giving the 2nd dose at 5, so some of our kids are just getting the 2nd dose at 12. I have MANY concerns about the vax. program. I keep an eye out for ANYTHING to do with things that are suspected in this syndrome i.e. mercry/heavy metal detox inabilities, other environmental factors, an interplay btwn virus and infections, an exaggerated immune response, strong family history of tics disorders where genetics may play more of a role, than in other cases, etc. Here is a situation I'm dealing with right now. My 13 yr. old son, has just spent the last 5 days at a hotel with a family who has a daughter playing in a baseball tournament. My sons friend (brother of ball player) appears to have chicken pox. He was vaccinated against for CP, so was my son. He has many lesions, and a temp of 102.5. His parents took him to a walk in clinic, where they gave him Keflex, and oral steroids. They said since he had the vax. it couldn't be chicken pox, and called it contact dermatitis. Hmmmm. His mom said that she had chicken pox twice, once a mild case at age 4 and a severe case at age 19. He was seen by a Dr. on Sat. By Mon. evening, his Mom said it had progressed to clearly looking like chicken pox. This is an article I just found http://www.cogforlife.org/chickenpox.htm My son's friend, may have done him a favor by exposing him, thus giving him a "booster"? One the other hand, since according to this article, the level of antibody is so much higher when aquiring a case of naturally occuring CP, is there a chance my son will develope it, and have problems with TS symptoms? Right now, I feel like the best thing I can do, is support his immune system, watch what he eats, and Pray. The only flair of any significance that he has had, since starting "natural interventions", was during a go around that he had with a staph infection. I had written once before, about a poster that shared his story of developing TS at age 13, after a bout of the Chicken Pox. He is now 33 and still battles anxiety, tics etc. Kim

Deanna/Carolyn, I am probably going to repeat what Alison said here. My thought is much the same as hers but a little reversed. If the immune system is busy identifying and reacting to things in the blood from foods, it will be taxed and not as able to deal with infections or things it's supposed to be working on. The idea is to heal the gut and the mucosal lining, so large molecules of foods are not able to penetrate to begin with. The reason I even did the testing was to see what would show up, to convince myself there was something to the testing. My youngest son is an extremely limited eater, so if he would have shown pineapple, and peas, I would have said there it was a waste of time as he hasn't eaten anything like that in years. He had the highest #'s for cow's milk and peanut and these are two of the foods he eats frequently. Lower #s for a couple of other things, but still in his diet (except pork..doesn't eat it, showed slight reaction) I have read posts where parents have said, upon retesting, that when they removed the offfending foods, and replaced them with new foods, that the child started eating frequently, guess what the new test showed reactions too? So the idea is to work on healing the gut with getting good flora balance, probiotics, possibly zinc, supplementing deficiencies in vitamins and minerals etc. Just my thoughs. Kim

This is a link to an open discussion with heads of research relating to vaccines. When you scroll down, to where your cursor is a generous inch from bottom, you will see this heading. STATUS OF NON-CLINICAL METHODS FOR AUTOIMMUNITY PRESENTER: PAUL-HENRI LAMBERT, M.D., CHIEF, VACCINE RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT, WHO WHO =World Health Organisation http://www.fda.gov/cber/minutes/tox120202.htm Does anyone find this reassuring? I'm just starting page 2

Statement of Rep. Dave Weldon, M.D. (Fl-15) July 26, 2006 Federal agencies charged with overseeing vaccine safety research have failed. They have failed to provide sufficient resources for vaccine safety research. They have failed to fund extramural research. And, they have failed to free themselves from conflicts of interest that serve to undermine public confidence in the safety of vaccines. The American public deserves better and increasingly parents and the public at large are demanding better. I'm a physician. I understand the importance of immunizations in protection children and the public at large from infectious disease. As a society we benefit from vaccines and as such it is important that we guard carefully vaccine safety research to ensure its objectivity. When I first began working on this issue about seven years ago, I was shocked at the dearth of resources dedicated to vaccine safety research. The federal government dedicates far more resources to promoting the immunizations than in safety evaluations. Most vaccine safety resources are dedicated to considering short-term, or acute adverse reactions, while very few resources are dedicated to considering potential longer-term or chronic adverse reactions. When I first tasked my staff with investigating this issue we got a lot of confused responses from federal agencies. The FDA told us to check in with the CDC, saying CDC did most of the vaccine safety research. The CDC referred us over to the NIH. Then, the NIH referred us back to the CDC. It was apparent to me that there is little coordination and very few resources dedicated to vaccine safety research. Ironically, 20 years ago Congress established The National Vaccine Program Office (NVPO) and charged NVPO with coordinating vaccine safety research. Along with safety, however, NVPO was charged with coordinating vaccine development, vaccine promotion and vaccine supply - the very conflicts that plague the CDC, and to some extent the NIH. It is no wonder that vaccine safety has been on the back burner at NVPO for all of these years - NVPO has conflicting missions and higher priorities. NVPO is now swamped with Avian Flu preparedness and is not an appropriate place for this. I agree with the prestigious journal Nature when in January of this year stated: "there is a strong case for a well-resourced independent agency that commends the trust of both the government and the public." That is why we are here today. Several issues relating to vaccine safety have persisted for years. The response from public health agencies has been largely defensive from the outset and the studies plagued by conflicts of interest. Legitimate questions persist regarding the possible association between the mercury-based preservative, thimerosal, and the childhood epidemic of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including autism. There are unresolved questions about the MMR vaccine that arose in 1998 that should be fully investigated. Gardasil, the HPV vaccine was just recommended by the CDC. Vaccine manufactures have dozens of new vaccines in the pipeline. The failure of public health officials to make this a priority and to free this research from conflicts of interest will only serve to further erode public confidence at a time when we should be working to build public confidence. It is incumbent upon us to fully investigate these issues in an independent manner. The Senate is turning its attention to FDA reform. Unfortunately, the legislation moving through the Senate HELP Committee is deafeningly silent when it comes to improving vaccine safety research. This is particularly ironic given that federal and state governments do not mandate drugs in order to enter schools or obtain employment, yet, as a society we do impose such mandates with regard to vaccination. This is all the more reason to be particularly mindful of issues related to vaccine safety. In his book on the subject of immunizations, Dr. Graham Wilson, the former Director of the Public Health and Laboratory Service for England and Wales, warned the public health community of the need to remain ever vigilant when it comes to vaccine safety. In 1967 he warned: "Over confidence must at all costs be avoided… It is for us, and for those who come after us, to see that the sword which vaccines and antisera have put into our hands is never allowed to tarnish through over-confidence, negligence, carelessness, or want of foresight on our part." Federal agencies in the U.S. charged with carrying out vaccine safety have failed to adequately heed this warning. If we continue down the current path, confidence in vaccines will continue to erode and this "sword" against disease will be tarnished. Today, we rarely come face to face with vaccine preventable disease, but we are at risk of seeing vaccine preventable diseases rear their ugly head. Why? Because, we are confronted with the side effects of vaccines, adverse reactions and perceived adverse reactions - many of them mild, but some of them severe. This is the new and increasing challenge that we face in fighting disease. There are two approaches we can take in the face of this new challenge. First we can downplay the existence of adverse reactions or otherwise pretend they do not exist all-the-while such questions persists unanswered and continue to fester. Such approaches have failed to work in the past and over the long-run they can do irreparable harm to public confidence in vaccines, breaking the trust with the public and leading to the rise of infectious disease. Conversely, we can take such hypotheses and evaluate them in an independent and objective manner. That is what we are proposing here today. Our bill corrects past mistakes. Presently, vaccine safety research is an in-house function conducted predominantly by the CDC - the very agency that makes vaccine recommendations and promotes their uptake. This should not be. We have seen fit to eliminate such conflicts across federal agencies. o At the National Institutes of Health we recognized the inherent conflicts of interest and created the Office of Human Subjects Protection as a separate office within HHS. o When we established the Superfund program, Congress established the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) - Superfund's science evaluation office - as a separate agency in another department. Safety evaluation is independent of all other decisions. o After the Space Shuttle Columbia accident, the Gehman Commission recommended that decisions about shuttle safety and launching the shuttle should be completely separate - we adopted this recommendation. What does our bill do? It: o Creates a new agency of vaccine safety that reports directly to the Secretary of HHS. o Vaccine safety research is conducted in a manner that is completely independent of any and all other vaccine-related decisions. o Establishes a scientific review panel, similar to NIH's study sections, to evaluate the scientific merits of investigator-initiated research as the Institute of Medicine has recommended. o Establishes a balanced 18 Member Advisory Committee to formulate a safety research agenda and to prioritize research approve by the scientific study group. Committee Includes: o 2 vaccine industry reps o A pediatrician o An immunologist o A toxicologist o An infectious disease expert o A geneticist o Not less than 1/3rd of the members of the Committee have a vaccine-related injury or injured child. Finally, as you may know the CDC has acknowledged this internal conflict. Last year, Dr. Gerberding moved the CDC's Immunization Safety Office out from under the National Immunization Program (NIP), however vaccines safety remains within the CDC. While I appreciate this initiative, and I understand her limitations in not being able to move vaccine safety outside of her agency, vaccine safety research remains woefully short of the degree of independence and funding commitment that is needed to garner wide public support and acceptance. If government-funded vaccine safety research is to be broadly accepted, we must eliminate all real and perceived conflicts of interest. Otherwise, we will fail to achieve the level of acceptance that is necessary to restore, build, and secure public confidence over the long-run. A vaccine safety program housed anywhere within the CDC fails to achieve this independence. We will create a separate and wholly independent office for vaccine safety research. The question that we face at present is: 'Will we create this office now in a proactive manner before public confidence further erodes, or will we do it later in reaction to growing loss of public confidence in the hope of restoring lost trust. I suggest we act now and that is what Rep. Maloney and I plan to do. It is the wiser course. ---------------------------------------------------------- VACCINE BILL SECTION BY SECTION Section 1.

Carol, Thanks for posting this.

Irena, It's so nice to hear from you! I'm glad you were able to locate "THE" DAN. Wanted to mention that some on the ASD solutions list, have said that they were able to maintain the positive results that they had with the MB12 injections, by using sublingual MB12. Others have said, the shots were superior. I think one of the advantages of the injections is to bypass an increase in gut problems. Carolyn could probably comment on that, if it's something you decide to try in the future. I hope you keep us posted on Stas progress. I'm really interesed in the results you see with the Candida Clear too. It's wonderful that you are sharing your experience with the Polish bd. When your supplements start rolling in with the payment expected, just remember Chemars words. Stop, drop and roll....oh no, that's if you're on fire, sorry. “Stop, deep breath, relax”. There we go. Kim

Dan the twitch, What a kind post. I hope you can find ways to releive your tics, from reading here too. We would love to help you anyway possible also. Kim

az, Just wanted to tell you if you haven't heard any vocals for 8 months, just wait another four, and you can call the neuro. and tell him your daughter no longer has TS! But....if you get a week of vocals 1 month later, you'll have to let them know, it's back again. Wanted to share that very important information.

BLESS YOU CHERI, Just thought of addressing this, was exhausting. What a beautiful job you did. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. We have also learned the hard way that many "experts" like neurologists, and psychiatrists and even sometimes the TSA tend to put Tourette Syndrome into a diagnostic and treatment "box" that has rigid parameters..........and there are testimonies galore on this site, mine included, that those parameters are VERY misleading and narrow! BRAVO Kim

http://www.ravenintellections.com/nutrient...s-epidemics.htm In recent years, a number of studies have documented a large number of commercially produced toxins in the bodies of humans and other species. Concurrently, we know that epidemics abound; and many researchers and administrators within universities, private businesses, and the NIH utter statements like, The causes of the epidemic remain unknown; no "smoking gun" has been discovered. In contrast, some scientists dare to publish findings of adverse effects from various toxins.

Linda, Your post evokes a whole range of emotions. Just a couple of thoughts. By reassuring some, you may terrify others. Transient tics and Tourette Syndrome are BOTH unusual movement disorders, sometimes accompanied by vocalizations. Transient tics can RESURFACE possibly with increased severity after a period of absence, sometimes years. So what exactly is the point of the article? To point out that there is a whole range of severity and longevity involved in chronic tics, transient tics, Tourette Syndrome, etc., and that there IS success with improvement outside of Prescription medications, in my opinion, would make a great article. Possibly you could incorporate the original idea, however distinguishing transient tics, with this one yr. time frame, in my opinion, is a load of BULL. I have two sons with one of the conditions mentioned above, and I would STILL have a hard time fitting them into a ONE categorie. I hope others will expand on this, even if they disagree. I am certainly not the most eloquent poster here. Kim

Spartan32, I believe probiotics are best are best given on an empty stomach and yeast treatments should be given away from them, but I would definitly check some sources to verify this.

azhorsegal. Have you been reading this thread: PANDAS question & food sensitivity quesiton I would really recommend that you use the links provided for Immuno and ElisaAct as they contain a lot of information and explaination on IgG vs. IgE and food sensitivity reactions. Once you get a good understanding, a rotation diet will probably be an easier thing to attempt. I KNOW it can be hard, and easy to slip up, and once you do, your back to square one. BTW did your daughter test positive to any environmental allergies...pollen, dustmites etc? kim
