In Reply to: allergies in my autistic son, does anyone have this problem? posted by Sophie in Arkansas on October 13, 2000 at 23:03:02:

Go to the Autism Research Institute
web site "www.autism.com/ari"
and click on "DAN! Practitioner List"

: My son recently went to an allergy specialist to have test. The doctor is also testing for foods (related to autism). My son gets very sick with high fevers. The doctor said that there is a strep common in autistics with severe allergies. We are now on a six month round of antibiotics. Does anyone know anything about this or has any loved one with this problem?
