There’s some research on sudden onset autism being treated with antifungals; so at least sometimes a sudden change may be the result of something very specific in the gut.
- Aurornis 5mo agoThere is not reasonable evidence supporting the idea that autism can be treated with antifungals. Case reports are unreliable due to placebo effect. The antifungal myth has been tested by too many well-meaning parents with no results.
- DANmode 5mo agoTelling people to just ignore microbes and the microbiome, to stop pulling levers when they are not enjoying their time, is medical injustice. How long ago was it you were in threads calling the treatment method in TFA an unfounded crackpot myth?
- DANmode 5mo agoAzole antifungals destabilize biofilms, often allowing the body to get a good run at any low-level chronic infections which have nested and protected themselves, able to leave the biofilmed region and wreak havoc - even if only intermittently. Very interesting, this impact of antifungals on longterm bacterial infections! Specifically known to be effective off-label for Bartonella.
