Thanks OT! I've tried other vitamin supplements for him with little to no success. Knowing someone who has personal experience with a combination that has worked is encouraging. I'm going to read up on those and see if any of them have indications regarding ADHD/Aspberger's kids. That would be bonus. He takes Concerta and it helps, but he still has many problems that lead me to believe he still has a chemical inbalance of some type.

I appreciate it!

He's probably old enough to try a 5-hour energy drink to see if there is any difference. It has a nice combination of stuff in it.

Hey, ot, thanks for the info about L-tyrosine and taurine. I have started paying attention to what I may not be getting enough of, like vitamin D3 a shortage common in people like me with hypothyroidism. So is a deficiency of taurine. I am going to check into getting some of it. Be careful if you have high blood pressure or if you take thyroid hormone medication, if you take L-tyrosine, though. Also, one thing I read, was that in one study, taurine deficiency was found in 62% of autistic children.

Sorry to hijack your thread, mish, just wanted to thank ot for the info.

Y'all have a great weekend

Hi Mishka..
Have not heard from you lately on my post so thought I would check on your sitch...Im going to read your post from the beginning (which looks like could take awhile..LOL!) but it looks like you and your H are D but still together in same house???
Thank you for all your support in my sitch...i really appreciate it

Hey ITM! I've been reading along but I'm kind of lost as to suggestions. 25 is the absolute best! I fully agree with the direction she is pointing you.

My sitch is strange to be sure. I wouldn't trade it but I wouldn't wish it on anyone else either! BAH!
