Hi
I have two questions that I would love to get comments on. Does anyone find that their autistic child goes for several days being "almost normal" and then deteriorate and become more "autistic" again for a few days and then go back to being "almost normal" again? I find this with my 7 year old and can't figure out why. There appears to be no changes in diet, sleep or activities it's a puzzle. My son seems to have the opposite problem of many autistic kids with bowel problems he has a very slow motabolism and won't go to the toilet for several days and when he does it's big. He eats lot of fruit and veg, it doesn't seem to bother him but it is different from his brothers.Does anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks Sarah
