[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not be in a hurry to affix a label to your child, OP. Your child may have a number of issues, but they may or may not add up to an actual diagnosis. My DD has never had a diagnosis of ASD, but she has some similar symptoms. I focus on the symptoms, not the diagnosis. I read a very interesting article about Round Up as a cause of the huge increase in autism, ADD and other similar issues in children in the last 20 years, and I think it's a good hypothesis. I would try to clean up your child's environment and diet as a very basic start, eliminating sugar and processed foods, and see if her behavior changes. DD no longer has a LD diagnosis, and most of her symptoms are gone. [b]A developmental ped will not tell you about diet and biomedical treatments[/b], but in DDs case, they made all the difference, along with speech therapy and a few other therapies. Best of luck to you sorting it out, OP. [/quote] Uh, yeah, because they believe in [i]science[/i]...[/quote]
