Hello I have been looking at your genetic trim .Do you need vit d and if you use it how do you feel.Do you use magnesium? what supplement do you really find useful.I know she will speak because she sometimes says a word but then might never use it again,her understanding gets better all the time.I have done AIT,ABA,Sensory therapy as well as all these supplement .i will always do my best for her.my friend helped me get this written
If you do find time please do explain more of how you feel
Thank you
My D is a huge issue, it is usually extremely low (not just a little low), even with standard daily D supplementations of 2000 IU daily.. after 5 mths when I had another blood test, it was even lower then before! Im now on 4000 IU per day (and havent been blood tested since so Ive no idea if this is helping get it up more or not). Something uses all my D up as that other D ..D2? level is in average range but my D3 is bottomed out. (Its probably something to do with having ME/CFS?? and my body having to fight something??). Anyway.. so far Ive never been able to get my D into a normal range and the D3 supplements havent helped.
Ive tried magnesium for a year (I had to take the organic pill form of it as I had a bad reaction to the other) but it didnt seem to help me in any way, so I no longer take it.
I havent tried to work on anything yet with my gene mutations except with a couple of the bad ones you daughter doesnt have and working on those did help. (I'll be trying more in the future).

quote is from my genetic genie report
"
This area of the brain is involved with personality, inhibition of behaviors, short-term memory, planning, abstract thinking, and emotion. COMT is also involved with metabolizing estrogens.
COMT (-/-) individuals can usually break down these neurotransmitters efficiently, but COMT (+/+) individuals may have trouble breaking these chemicals down from impaired function of the enzyme. With a COMT + status, people may have trouble with methyl donors. This can lead to irritability, hyperactivity, or abnormal behavior."
I have polycystic ovulation syndrome which gives me estrogen predominance. This is a NIGHTMARE for me to have with that COMT mutation as I struggle with the estrogen and with some dietary problems, the combined situation with the COMT, PCOS and diet issue along with maybe chemical sensitivity I also have, it was flipping me out so much right at the time of my that I even got into trouble with the police. I was loosing control and hitting people. Im fortunately able to deal now due to working out my diet issues.

One thing I do have to say is be careful with vaccinations, I had a friend whos baby went very autistic within 24 hrs of having a vaccination and it was very clear to see (the baby never smiled again). My daughter and father also have aspergers but my daughter never had a vaccination so obviously that doesnt cause all Autism (but I wonder if my daughter would be far worst if she'd been vaccinated).
My aspergers daughters daughter. I thought she had Aspergers too as she wouldnt look at peoples faces and always looked throu people, she'd talk to people but wouldnt be ever looking at them when she did. One couldnt even ever get a photo of her looking straight at a camera. She was like that from baby till 3. She also had no safety sense.. she'd jump off a very high thing at 3 and had to be constantly watched. Now at 4 years old thou (she's actually the other week turned 4) , fortunately she's now acting normally and now can look at peoples faces.
She used to also when at the playground due to seeming not to have sense of the other children, when she wanted to get to something and started running, she'd run the other kids down (even kids twice her size) if they were in the way of the line she was making for the thing and then was like she had no awareness she'd knocked a child to the ground.
She seems to have come good and the autistic traits she had have vanshed. Her great grandma has been taking her to weekly swimming classes with other kids for a year since she turned 2 and a half or 3, maybe that helped?? **fingers crossed**
