[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Autism is a medical condition causing brain inflammation.   I wonder how many years it will take for this to be accepted ?  How many kids will suffer, how many families will suffer?

There are so many groups trying to normalize autism, saying it's not a bad thing.  That will hinder the search for a cause and a cure or prevention.

I also think they'll eventually find that a least a large subset of ASD is inflammatory.  PANDAS-caused ASD behavior is clearly inflammatory (and to an outsider, the behavior in that transient period looks identical to ASD).  And small scale studies of kids diagnosed with ASD show statistically significant improvement in symptoms on steroid treatment (regression once the steroids inevitably have to be stopped).  [/quote]

I’m not sure what’s worse: this kind of pseudoscience bullshit pushing harmful treatments (steroids are no joke); or the adult “autism”
community interfering with the development and deployment of effective therapies; or the online self-diagnoses “autism community” blathering on about masking.

FWIW my DS supposedly on the spectrum is exactly like his dad, cousin and uncle. It’s not inflammation or a virus. [/quote]

The people posting and reposting this “inflammation” and “gut biome” BS sound like MLM shillers.[/quote]

Or Harvard researchers! Harvard https://hms.harvard.edu/news/gut-brain-connection-autism[/quote]

Stop trying to Science. The article in no way supports your claim. It just has a headline with words (you think) you know.[/quote]

I did not claim anything - if there is a claim of someone else’s you’d like to address then feel free. It appears you misunderstood my post.[/quote]
