Do you or rather did you have chronic inflamation or autoimmune disease when you had your ASD child? If you chose to have more kids, were they on the spectrum also?
I have hashimoto's hypothyroidism, insulin resistance (so possible pcos), celiac, interstitical cystitis and ankilyiosis (lol can't spell it right now or ever)
My family has a history of autoimmune disorders--ulcerative colitis (my mom) and Graves' disease (my sister) and thyroid problems (other sister).
Oh, to answer your second question, my daughter does not have autism.
I had undiagnosed, untreated Hashimoto's thyroiditis during both of my pregnancies. I have two aspies.
