It has taken me months to get my childs consultant to do a feacal test for Yeast overgrowth for my 6 year old autistic girl.I had suspected this for ages esp reading this message board. The test result is Candida positive . I will see the Dr tomorrow, Nystatin has been sugested to her. Could someone tell me how long is most benificial to continue treatment? and what results I may expect to find. She is on GF and CF diet and we have tried Secretin (no results). She does not speak, had loads of ear(glue)infections from young,loads of antibiotics when younger.She has had terrible streatching of her tum since birth which takes most of her concentration,rare normal poohs.Anyone have similar or any suggestions?? re further treatments (will retry Loovas if tummy streatching ceases) HAS THE YEAST PROBLEM STOPPED THE GF/CF DIET OR SECRETIN WORKING??? Could this have contributed to the severity of Autism? I would be MOST gratefull for any ideas , similar experience,knowledge.Very best wishes and good luck to you all out there
