[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s wild to ignore treatment developments for your child because you don’t like that someone you hate talked about it.  Didn’t you take prenatal vitamins when pregnant?  Folate has long been known to be important for brain development.[/quote]

It's understandable given the source. But just ignore RFK and Trump and look at the existing information and studies.[/quote]

Which are not at all enough to say anything. The main trial was 40 kids.

Wow, approving a drug with a 40 person trial is nuts.[/quote]
There are actually multiple trials going way back. We live in DC but my dd has been a patient of one of the main trials dr (Frye, Rossignol) for years. My DD does show on the FrAT test that Leucovorin should help her. She’s been on it for four years with no real change, so I hesitate for people to jump on this as a cure. I’m on a lot of chat boards and things, and the number of people who think rfk and trump have just cured autism is terrifying. [/quote]

+1. I can see why parents in your position would try this. But given how uneven the course of autism is, trying to discern whether a medication or therapy caused a long term improvement is gonna be extremely difficult and require a LOT more study. [/quote]
