We took Nate this morning to his DAN! doctor (Dr. Mumper at the Rimland Center), and it was great. We talked about some lingering issues (possible seasonal allergies we will try treating with Claritin), some supplements to add (including zinc, which may also help with diet self-limiting), and even perhaps a meeting or two with their feeding therapist, who could teach Nate to swallow pills and try new foods. Dr. Mumper said she was going to stop classifying Nate as on the autism spectrum and instead put "former ASD" on the top of his chart. So cool! We also talked with the doctor about Levi, because he has some slight delays and some similar issues to Nate at this age (poor sleeping/naps, digestive issues). She recommended a few things and also suggested we try the GFCFSF diet. I'm open to trying, though it definitely means more work!
All in all, it was a great appointment.
