RE: [foodallergyautism] Introduction to our family
Michelle,
do your kids have gastrointestinal issues too? Diarrhea or constipation?
I am happy to see your post. I don't think this board is very active. I hope some other parents answer your questions. I would like to hear answers to the same testing questions. thank you Rob's mom

Hi, my name is Michelle. Our family is located in Baltimore county, Maryland. My hubby, Steve, is a police officer. We have his/hers and ours. My oldest, Amanda, is in the army. Stationed in Hawaii and being deployed to Iraq. Let's not go there as I am unhappy with her decision. Ashley, 15, has a dx of PDD and is on the road to recovery. Ashley is GFCF. Jesse James, 11, dx of ADHD and ODD. He is a huge help but great arguer. And our twins, Stevie and Sammy, 2, dx of autism, multiple food allergies and SID.
Stevie and Sammy are on a rotation diet due to known allergies to wheat, milk, soy, corn, rice, quinoa and white potato. We are going to be doing the SAGE Elisa delayed food allergy testing soon. Has anyone had an experienced with delayed food allergy testing and the Elisa in particular? What company did you use? What was the outcome? Good, bad or indifferent?
By the way, our guys did not fair well on the Nutramigen either and we think it was due to the corn syrup solids. We did some preliminary bloodwork regarding food allergies after discontinuing Nutramigen. When corn came up high, we contributed it to the Nutramingen as nothing else we used had corn. Our guys have food texture adversions and eat ONLY thick puried foods (Food Processor) all organic of course. They also only drink 6.5 oz bottled water to 1.5 oz pear juice. Is there anything else that is safe for drinking? Orange juice seems to contain too much sugar and apple is out as we are also treating heavy yeast. We are still working on gut issues. YUK!
Our guys are on multiple vitamins/supplements. Both are making slow but steady progress. I was hoping to connect with other parents living with children with multiple food allergies so that I may learn from them. I am glad to be among parents that understand.
