We're still here. Liberty is doing well. We are going to try an anti-inflammatory next, spironolactone. Dr. Bock wanted him to be on Actos, a diabetic drug, but I was concerned about blood sugar levels.Liberty was completely negative for PANDAS. We will re-test him again in a month if he still has OCD symptoms, but they seem to be lessening now. Even Dr. Bock said that you would be surprised how powerful therapeutic listening is, and so, we are watching Lib right now. The OT who oversees Liberty's listening program, thought that the symptoms we were attributing to PANDAS were actually side-effects of the listening program since Liberty had had a longer break than usual. I do remember the first break we took and he did a lot of side-looking and spinning. Then again, some symptoms could be attributed to the MB-12 shots that we started in January at the correct concentration.
Who knows? Watching and waiting, already turning our thoughts to summer camp and summer programs, and the good 'ole IEP coming up shortly.
Oh Joy.
The potty training is coming right along and he is dressing himself. This was not the case at all even three weeks ago!
Check out one of the supplements Dr. Bock is going to have Liberty try for inflammation.
It is called cercumin.

It gets better.
I promise.
That's a beautiful picture of Liberty. Good luck with the IEP, I share your "joy".
First of all Liberty is soooooo cute! I can't stand it!
I am so glad Dr. Bock is open to "alternative" (at least to Western medicine) supplements.
We had a great IEP here yesterday, I'll send the good mojo your way.
Have a great weekend!
