Well it has been a bit of time since our last update and we have made some changes. The shredding stim was back full force, and I could only attribute to the new introduction of the Enhansa last month with dosing increases. Sure enough, when we pulled it, things calmed down tremendously. High pitched vocal yelp is actually way down also. Ty is once again looking pretty good. Some nice attempts at toy play, now that he isn't hell bent to constantly seeking out something to shred, and away went the portable DVD player in exchange for real TV programming. WOW! Enhansa did a number on him. He was on Diflucan and then Ketoconozole throughout most of it, so while many see yeast kicks up on intro of it, I don't think that was our issue for Ty. It was either the fact that it is high phenolic (cucurmin) or that the raise in glutathione levels was too much for him and resulted in detox. We did take a UTM about 10 days ago, but haven't seen any results from it yet. Will post when we do.
Other than that.. he looks good. He has begun to use his communication device at school and home and we are seeing some nice spontaneous requesting with it - as well as some decent echoics also. School reported 2 new words this week, and they never hear anything, lol!
Will keep yah posted!

From one Recovering Ty to another, I completely understand how you are like a detective trying to figure out what caused this and what caused that. We are therapists, nurses, detectives, and more all rolled into one. Good luck!!!
