    Karen my son has been hitting his head since he became mobile and the therapist, doctors and ABA would tell me it’s cause he can’t communicate and he’s frustrated and that is why he hits his head. What do you have to say about this? He does use some words and ask for squeezes on his head and he likes the way it feels. I have contacted 3 craniosacral therapists already what are some things to ask them once I take my son? How do I know that I have found the right Cranio therapist for my son?

    I get what you’re saying 🙂 . Also how do I know if my son has headaches? I was reading how your son would suffer from headaches, I’m only asking cause my son has been hitting his head a lot on things and smacking his head a lot with his hands. I remember a time where he had stopped doing these behaviors and now they have come back… I feel like he is having headaches from his teeth grinding possibly? Well I’m going to read What causes the Symptoms of Autism and see what I learn. I have read it in the past but I have trouble retaining the things I read. Thanks Karen!

    Can a child be OCD from birth? My son has been lining things up since he was a baby. I don’t know how to take this question cause he’s always been like this. He color codes things.He has to have all five colors or else he doesn’t want anything to do with it.He has to finish what he started or he gets a tantrum/meltdown. For example like yesterday we went to look at sheds and he had to look at every single unit inside that was lined up outside in a row and then he was ready to leave.
    Another example, if we are heading out he has to grab certain toys and then we can head out. Can it be that he’s always been struggling with PANS is entire life or all these things i’m listing not considered OCD???

    Karen I found our conversation on this.. .

    Be sure to test first morning urine pH levels with litmus paper. This shows you best testing of acidity levels. Pathogenic gut flora creates acidity. To regulate if the candida levels are improving use the litmus pH test strips that move in increments of 0.2 such as 6.2, 6.4, 6.6, etc, not the one that jumps by 0.5. Look for the paper to go from yellow to green. Yellow is more acidic. You will be looking for something in the healthy range of 5.5 to 6.4, but no higher than that. Anything higher that 6.2/6.4 shows you that the body is not properly eliminating toxins, and offers the level of organ support that is currently needed.

    If you’re seeing a 5.8 reading on first morning levels then that is a good sign. You’re making progress!:)

    Good Morning Karen,

    I looked up the Binders and as of right now he is only taking pure body regular and Pure body Extra strength.

    The past week he’s been waking up in the middle of the night with random laughter and non-stop vocal ticks. This morning he woke up at 5 a.m. He used to sleep through the night of course with his non stop tossing and turning due to his Restless foot syndrome/mild sleep apnea. But now these symptoms are making it worse.

    I just gave him Activated Charcoal at 7:30 a.m. but I wasn’t sure how much to give him for his age he is only 6 and I followed the bottle instructions 3-4 hours before/after meals or as directed. does that mean both before/after meals or I just pick one.Do I give it to him 3 times a day or only once? He is good at swallowing pills.

    I have Chlorella and since it’s a food I will give him 6 pills right at breakfast at 10:30 a.m. since I have to wait at least 3 hours after giving him the Activated Charcoal. & what is the amount of times I give him the Chlorella? Is it only once a day?

    I’m going to order the glyphodetox and the pectasol today.

    I believe you said if symptoms don’t subside in 3 to 4 days after these binders it’s more likely I have triggered PANS?

    I also wanted to ask about levels of histamines, if you know how to read the results from testing?

    hello Karen,

    Just want to go over my sons symptoms, he his having more episodes of random laughter that last anywhere from 5 to 35 mins. He used to only have them at bedtime, but that had stopped which was amazing.But now it’s maybe 5 to 6 times a day. Also now non-stop vocal stemming from when he wakes up. I have not had time to go over the specific guide based on symptoms. Can you please guide me from here?

    So if other companies offer the same specs, those are good choices as well?

    Hey Karen so I got my Square footage wrong. My wife said it is 2323 sq. Do you think LivePure Bali Multi-Room True HEPA Console Air Purifier will be okay with just one or two units in my two story home now that I have the correct SQ?

    Also why do you recommend this company vs. others? I remember you talking about them, but I don’t recall what was said.

    My son’s doctor wants to give him iron supplements but I won’t give it to him based on what you are saying. So what other things can I give him that will help with his iron deficiencies? Like what other foods? Cause his PCP told me there is no way to get him where he needs to be on his iron level? His level came back at 27.

    Hey Karen,

    regarding my post on April 2,2023 @ 8:43 p.m. #241986

    I know I had mentioned that Ethan is allergic to eggs but he is not, I worded it wrong. The test that they did on him was the IgG testing (his blood serum reacted to these food antigens) saying that he has food sensitivities to eggs. That being said what does that even mean? So what is egg doing to my sons body? Now its been 8 months on the program and I have seen improvements in my sons behaviors like making eye contact using more words, reading short story books, requesting for help, started liking the swings at playgrounds,engaging with us more, less vocal stemming,less random laughter,hitting his head less. Still not able to carry conversations, but uses “Can I have” or “I want” or “here” and points when requesting something or ” Ethan” when he wants to look at himself in the mirror.

    Now he is regressing Example: hitting head more, he tends to zone out for a good 20 to 30 mins when hes having his episodes of random laughter(this is occurring way more often during the day), Vocal stemming from the moment he wakes up in the morning until he goes to bed and the only way he stops if hes on the phone or watching tv. Still very hungry all the time(always wanting to snack),Easier meltdowns (doesn’t take a lot for him to get triggered), poking his nose throughout the day, timers are no longer helping with transitioning, no longer following simple request ” like Ethan please get down” ” please come here” ” please stop”, More oral sensory seeking with non food items, Emotional, and more Echolalia speech.

    l feel like he mentally checks out and I see these regressions and then he checks back in and I see him come back to me, if that makes sense.?

    I feel like his his behaviors have changed ever since starting school, and I keep telling my wife that I feel like his candida is out of control cause we have been giving him fruits and carb snacks for school.

    He also started showing the start of athletes foot, it’s not bad right now but just skin peeling no redness.

    Remember his testing has come back with cellular inflammation, high histamine levels,along with the other conversation we had about his testosterone levels. We also discussed how his neurotransmitter testing came back good on his dopamine and serotonin.

    ( I just copied and pasted this from our last conversation of his behaviors so you can compare the changes from the ones I listed above)
    1.)losing more focus
    2.)He’s not listening anymore when I tell him to come here
    3.)Says “No” more now to things we ask of him
    4.)More aggressive ( hits us more, hits his head more on objects and with his hands)( more tantrums)
    5.)More emotional& sensitive
    6.)Random clinginess
    7.)Wanting more sensory input( he would never want swing time and now he wants more swing time, putting his cheek against my cheek more& more)
    8.)random laughter that has been going on for weeks now , it can last from about 20 mins to an hour(usually around 3pm and at bedtime). Which this behavior has turned into non stop babbling)
    9.)wakes up many times throughout the night (more like tossing and turning)but goes back/stays asleep & suffers from acid reflux almost every night& waking up in the morning is really congested.

    10.)I feel like his symptoms of ADHD are getting worse.

    He already had these behaviors back in April 2023 when I first sent you this but they are just getting way worse, along with his chronic constipation.

    I wanted to share these things with you to see if you can see what my sons triggers are for these behaviors.

    These are the supplements hes’s been on
