[QUOTE=", post: 2881"] Thank you for taking the time to post. You may save another child & more parents by taking the time to explain your experiences & sharing your story. When I first heard of food maybe causing behavior problems, I just didn't understand the cause/effect. After reading & studying, it did make sense to me, but I couldn't find anyone to do the 'right' tests. Our allergists in my city just did the skin prick tests & my child tested not allergic to wheat or milk or yeast. Then I read about the whole gut/immune system/ reaction & finally found someone who could do the blood allergy tests. The right tests are the ones that test the blood for antibodies in the blood (which means the body is basically fighting the food as it would fight an infection). Most doctors say that it has been disproven that 'foods do not affect behavior'. Well, in my child's case, food does affect his behavior. My child's problems are a little more involved than only the food affecting him. He has sensory integration disorder, premature birth, some other problems with Candida yeast & gut inflamation caused by wheat & dairy (gluten/casein). However, he too is so much better. Even though it is quite complicated to figure out in some cases, (like ours), the doctors discouraged us, which made me think I was crazy. If I had gotten the right answers from another mom when my child was 4, instead of it taking me several years & many books & me making appointments with many doctors just to find out how the body works & me having to do the research .... we would have been so far ahead & not have had the developmental delays that resulted from not knowing. Please continue to share your story. You may have already helped another 'lurker' who may never post, but who has been helped by your generousity in sharing your story publicly like you have here. When someone someday posts (or emails you) that she read your post & you helped her child, you will know (first hand) that you literally saved someone else & their child. Thanks again for taking the time to share. I am so happy for you. Please continue to read & learn & post here or on other forums.
