I am truly sorry. :( How you are getting help for your digestive distress.

Are those things helping you? Try googleling SCD diet. It's help Mickie gut heal and also very important are Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics.

Autistic people might be more prone to intestinal problems. But they don't always go hand in hand. I have never had any significant intestinal problems. What I have had is Epilepsy, which autistic people are more prone to than neurotypicals. "Self injurous behaviors are an attempt to escape estraordenary[sic]abdominal pain". That could be, but SIB's are also a means of communication and a result of frustration at the inability to communicate verbally.

In Dr. Wakefield"' own words;____There exists a subset of children who are vulnerable to developing a particular form of regressive autism following previously normal development in combination with a novel form of inflammatory bowel disease. Onset may

occur over weeks or sometimes months, and is triggered by exposure to a measles containing vaccine, predominantly the measles mumps rubella vaccine (MMR), that is in use in much of the world today.

I always told myself that after the MMR is when I noticed signs, but other people told me that my son has always had the signs, but I sometimes wonder...

And what are the signs of abdominal disease? Never heard about it until today.

And you have good videos out, your son is beautiful, with or without Autism.

[purplemutantas]

are there any good studies to back this up?

In Mickie's case the head banging was directly due to severe abdominal pain.
