Nids

My son saw Dr. Goldberg in 1999 for about 8 months and then we stopped. I
think some parents/doctors forget that our children are not all alike. My
son definitely has immune problems but he also has stomach problems and the
meds that Dr. Goldberg prescribed bothered my son's stomach to the point
that his behavior was uncontrollable at times so even if it was doing some
good, we couldn't see it.
So we stopped and worked on his stomach which is now under control (not
corrected)so he rarely has any agression and has not had any issues at
school this year. In addition, we are working on his allergies because his
gastro doctor believes some (if not all) of his stomach probs may be allergy
related. We are also looking at chelation (as he has many of the symptoms of
heavy metal poisoning) ...
I respect Dr. Goldberg and all the doctors out there that are trying to help
our children but one doctor cannot see all our children. And the sad truth
is that everyone cannot afford to fly around visiting various doctors even
if they were certain to hold the answer. Dr. Rimland recently published a
pamphlet which summarizes the work of a group doctors and chelation... maybe
Dr. Goldberg could do a similar booklet. Obtaining ABA services were the
same way several years ago...
