You were right! there isn’t supposed to be a bump, it was about 1.5” around and about an .5” high, very weird. Yesterday we went to the new local GI clinic, they work with UW (University of Washington) and she said she’s never heard of it before either. Thank you for telling me, I wouldn’t have...

Thank you for all the time frames. And the good thoughts! Your time frames really help me a lot to know what to expect. For some reason I thought the Humira would kick in first. Maybe because it was the hardest to get approved for. ;) He did really well with the shots, I did have to hold his...

Hi All, Finally got approved for Humira! Finally A (son) is approved to start his treatment, it’s been so long. Monday he got his first loading dose of Humira, and the MTX shot, plus the second Hep A & B shot. 6 altogether! Both arms, 2 on the tummy and both legs. Poor thing had shots...

We had our first GI appt. So much to know about and learn. It’s all so depressing, but I’m really trying to think positive. They are going to put A on Humira & Methotrexate (MTX?) Shots for both meds. I’m really scared of the shots (with his Autism) hoping that he will understand why we’re...

Sorry if it seems I’m flooding the thread! It’s just that you were all so kind to respond to me and give me such support. I wish I could reply to everyone! Suspect you would throw me out though. :ybiggrin: Last one! Cat-a-Tonic, don’t you dare think you are some weirdo! We all have quirks that...

Hi, Maya142, my DS is 19 but being at only about 2 or 3yr old level on some things he is more childlike, especially with everything he has to go through. I thought perhaps I could be in this forum because of his disability. Should I move to another one you think? I don’t know for sure. Also that...

pdx, thank you for telling me about your daughter, I’m so sorry you have to go through this, it helped me to know that you had a similar situation, and that I can be hopeful that everything will come out to be better. It is all overwhelming isn’t it, I’m really glad that you’re all doing much...

I don’t have much in the way of help, but I wanted to say I’m so sorry about your diagnosis for your son. It’s all so overwhelming isn’t it, We just found out about our son too. I’m still in denial a little bit, mostly just terrified. I’m glad you asked the questions about the meds, I was also...

Autism and Crohn’s Hi everyone, My son has been recently diagnosed as having Crohn’s. In March they thought he might have it. It took until just now to have the colonoscopy and endoscopy, now it’s for sure. He’s disabled with Fragile X Syndrome (similar to Autism), so it had to be inpatient...

Just in case anyone is curious, I emailed Panda on the 10th or so, and received this reply back today, cool that they took the time to answer: "Thank you for taking the time to contact us. We value all comments and suggestions from our guests. We apologize for any inconvenience due to our...

It's because of the avian flu outbreak: http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2015/06/12/egg-shortage-amid-avian-flu-outbreak-scrambles-us-food-industries But replacing eggs with the corn is ridiculous. I mean they think people wouldn't notice that it was corn and not eggs. Drives me crazy when...

Hi, I’m new to the forum, so I’m not sure where to post this. Over the weekend I took my son to get him some fried rice at Panda Express, which he loves (went through drive-thru) I was in for a shock when we got home, as they are now putting whole pieces of CORN in, mixed with the rice! I called...

Thank you so much for your help! I’ve been reading on the website “pecanbread.com” I’m getting started right away. What an amazing resource it is. Thank you for telling me about it. And I ordered the book "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" that you told me about. I feel like I’m a little more able to...

Thank you both so much! Pilgrim and 24601, this sounds like something that would really work for him. I’m going to go and see right now. Take care, and thank you both again.
