I have experience major regressions on my son too. It has been 3 years looking for answers. This has lead me into mitochondrial dysfunction. Here are some links where you can read more about it. Just because our kids have hypotonia, it shows that the mitochondria doesn't function properly. <br /><br />www.ageofautism.com/2011/02/molecular-psychiatry-medscape-mitochondrial-dysfunction-linked-to-autism.html<br /><br />http://www.mitoaction.org/about-autism-and-mito<br /><br />http://mitomedical.com/research/<br /><br />I am trying to get geneticist for getting more answer to my questions.

Your daughter'...Keep fighting for your daughter! Your daughter's regressions seem a characteristic to Autism. My son's has a dual diagnosis, Down syndrome and Autism. Removing her out all stressful environments is the best you have done for her. I am not an expert, but I will share with some of the things are helping me to help my son:<br /><br />- Hiring a nutritionist was one of the first step in recovering my son. I tried to find one that it is covered by our insurance company and with experience with kids with special needs.<br /><br />- Cristina seems to be under stress and anxiety as my son. A neurotransmitter treatment has helped my son enormously in this area. Our nutritionist is the one who has been in charge of testing and treatment of my son's neurotransmitters. <br /><br />- To focus on neuroscience has been crucial for my son's progress. We do a neurodevelopmetnal program and MendAbility at home. <br /><br />- To establish a controlled environment and establishing a relationship (parents/son or daughter). Great books for this are: The Child with Special Needs, Play to Talk and Spectacular Bond.<br /><br />- A website that I use as a reference is: <br />www.downsyndromeoptions.org<br /><br />If you one day need to talk to someone, please feel free to contact me. I speak Spanish, too. Rosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02563282224117081649noreply@blogger.com
