I must agree its not easy to keep up with such restrictive expensive diet and i kind of impressed that ImMeeMee managed to do it for 1 year+ before she stopped.


As i’m seeing improvements, I chose the biomed route to improve my girl’s overall health and it has to complement with special diet + removing out the allergic food which doesn’t agree with her. Its a lonely tedious journey especially i’m doing it alone. I’m not sure how far i can go to help my girl but i will try my best as she only has me to continue the journey with her.

Thank you.

Sorry to hear that yours isn’t high functioning. Yes, agree with you that diets and biomed are different things. Pardon me for confusing them.

I guess, to each parent it really depends on what is the more pressing issue for them. For u and many parents here is probably in managing the child’s behaviour. For me, my priority issue actually isn’t autism. I think I’ve said before that other than autism, my boy has other medical conditions. Comparing both ailments, the other one weighs higher in my list. He actually has growth hormone deficiency which he can’t grow if he isn’t placed on growth hormones. He need daily injections to help him grow. But with it also lays the risk of cancer. So, autism is the least of my worries. So long as he is healthy, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t succeed academically or if he doesn’t talk to the kids in school.

Hugz Mashy :grphug:


My son also hv a hole in the heart but luckily till now everything is ok. But if one day that hole gets too big, he would need surgery.

Already we had people now telling us shld consider surgery to close up this hole etc...

I agree with you, physical health usually outweigh mental health in terms of priority.

My son been acting out a lot lately.. I am getting so stress.

There is a highly recommended book on autism in Singapore. Title of the book is "Come into my world: 31 stories of Autism in Singapore". When you read about the various families with autistic children, you would understand autism better. Google "come-into-my-world" to access the book’s website. Hope this helps.
