Tales from the pharma-free autism crypt

Tales from the Pharma-Free Autism Crypt: Autism and GI Solutions - AGE OF AUTISM

Yes Virginia, there IS help for autistic children and adults. It's just that doctors don't know or care about it. Please forward this information to any friends who are interested in this issue and especially to those who have ASD in their family.

Are you on Twitter? I’m hooked. Lately I’ve been tweeting items from my practice. Sort of like Tales From The Crypt, only it’s autism, the tales are all 140 characters (the tweet limit), and, they are all true.  Stuff like these actual tweets:

From my case files: Child skipped lunch at school, ate Skittles, then trashed classroom yelling "take no prisoners"

More case files: 14 yo boy w/ FTT & #autism, breaks helmets w/head banging rage: Rx bowel infxns --> gains, grows, stops violent outbursts

More case files: Some parents I work with whose kids recover from #ASD don't want the past revealed to schools, neighbors. Et tu? #FAY

If you’re not into Twitter, #FAY is a searchable tag for “feel autism yet?”
