[quote=Anonymous]<<coincidently, I had a phone consult with my child's autism doctor yesterday and he mentioned an interesting patient who was totally no-verbal a year ago. After a short course of steroids, that boy was talking at an age-matched NT level and was fully caught up and integrated. Clearly, this was a stand out case, but it showcases the fact that our kids can get better with medical intervention. >> PP who posted this -- i am the OP. Interestingly, my child had one IVIG months and months ago. In the room with my child was a boy who apparantly was entirley non-verbal, full-on autism dx in an autism classroom who became completely verbal after a course of steroids (so the mother says). My child did not have any negative side effects from oral steroids other than puffy face/weight gain. No crankiness, which is what i feared. I'll see how iv steroids go. [/quote]
