If all you want is a driveby diagnosis then the internet is the best place to find one. "You could try this" or "you could try this" and meanwhile your kid is suffering and so are you and odds are you will be spinning in circles hoping and hopping from forum to forum looking for that 'magic bullet'.

OR you could find a bona fide confident and competent naturopathic practitioner who has seen many cases like this one and has had great susccess in correct diagnosis through simple effective non invasive and non traumatizing analysis. Usually it will cost money unlike the information gathered at these sites which is free. So that could be a drawback.

It's you choice. The toll road or the freeway.

40679,I have a daughter that has had similar problems to your son.I have seen alot of improvement with her just from changing her diet.She is basically on the gluten free casein free diet right now.I had a local chiropractor to muscle test her for food intolerances.Sure enough it showed up that she could not tolerate anything with wheat,yeast,white sugar or dairy.So gluten free casein free seemed the most logical choice for now.Within 2 weeks,its amazing how much her bowels improved.She is still sensitive to loud sounds,but not nearly as bad as she was.She seems happier and so far has not had an ear infection.Before I changed her diet,she kept a constant ear infection.
The gfcf diet may seem to overwhelming to you all at once,should you be interested in trying that.If so,try eliminating say dairy for a couple of weeks and see if you notice any change.Just changing my daughter's diet has helped her tremendously.I should mention I also give her 2 teaspoons of flaxseed oil daily.The flaxseed oil seemed to help calm her down enough that she was not so jumpy.
Anyway,I hope this post will be of some help to you.Take care.charville

Good advise from both plzchuckles and azorite.

To find someone qualified is NOT an easy task. I put this forum together because I have been terminally ill and I know the panic and frustrations firsthand. It didn't matter who I consulted about it all and finally came down to testing all the various treatments available and finding out for myself what worked and what didn't work.

Most of the information that worked I learned from forums like this or an obscure forgotten protocol that was hidden away because the political climate won't allow truth to be publicized.

No doubt its a crap-shoot but I spent a lot of money with so-called professionals that didn't do me a bit of good. Including many naturopaths and so-called experts in Natural healing. So I offer this information free.

First, The drugs you were taking while pregnant with him. Not good. It depends on how far along you were when taking the drugs. The first trimester is the most dangerous. After about weeks 6-7 the baby is completely formed and spends the rest of the time growing. You were taking them the last trinmester so it shouldn't be a problem or at least a minimal problem that should correct itself as he grows.

Next, the vaccinations. If you've done any research on vaccinations you already know how dangerous they are.

What to do about it at this stage of the game. First lets clarify when all the symptoms started. If he was healthy and just sensitive until age four that's one thing. If he has had all these problems since birth that's quite another thing.

From your post I'll take it that he was pretty healthy and just sensative until age 4 and then all these other things started happening.

The distended belly and dark circles under the eyes is digestion. The diet plzchuckles suggested is excellent.

Do another antiparasite program. There are many available. I prefer Barefoots DeWormer and recommend that all the time. Was there an incident where he required antibiotics before all this started happenening? If so the distended belly and stinky stool are from that. Some good probiotics are necesary to reestablish normal intestinal flora. That should eliminate the distended belly and stinky stool. If not, get some of Barefoots LBB. If you go that route let me know, I'll tell you how to take it.

No Meds.

Another considration is structural, especially if a sudden onset. He may have fallen or been in an accident. Get his structure checked at a good chiropractors office. One that's been around for a while. Specifically his upper neck. Kids are easy to adjust and respond very quick.

So, here's what you can do. Go to the healthfood store and get some good probiotics, the refrigerated kind are the best. Clean up his diet and get him a good adjustment.

Do those three things and see what happens. Keep me posted.
