[QUOTE="ready2run, post: 464452, member: 11339"] he sounds to me(i'm not a doctor though) like he is on the autism spectrum. they don't all have the same symptoms, and most of them don't have ALL the possible symptoms. i have 2 diagnosed on the spectrum and they don't share that many symptoms and the ones they do share come out in different ways. first, i would try eliminating the wheat from his diet if you already know he's allergic to that. at the same time i would probably still want to get him in to see someone for an assessment. this process can be very, very long depending on where you live and if you pay cash. i know where i live it takes about 2 years from going in and meeting with someone to ask for a child to be screened and seeing a doctor/possibly finding an answer. you may want to start looking into that because if you should find another solution *cough-not likely-cough* before then you could always back out. if you have a pediatrition or family doctor that's a good place to start. just request that he be screened for autism. be prepared with a list of symptoms he has incase they ask for it. your latest post sound like Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) to me.
