Brain inflamation MAY lead to Autism.

Post Reply New Topic

I've been dealing with inflammatory issues since around age 5.

And still currently dealing with several layers of 'that'.

By just living in the tropics my whole life, then possibly being carb sensitive and rice is a staple meal while dealing with sugar to emotionally cope, not to mention other unaddressed stuff and the looming possibility of metabolic issues from my family history.

It's where most of my emotional intolerance came from, and it gets worse with age.
I want to get rid of it so badly, even if it meant taking autism with it.


But there are still rare days where I ended up behaving and reacting differently. No stupid emotional intolerance.

Didn't made me less autistic.
It made me less dysfunctional.


I don't know which health issue to get rid off in order for that to happen, but I hope I'm getting closer...

There is also research ongoing at the moment that indicates that an estimated 80% of blind or partially sited people who have had their condition since birth are on the spectrum and autism is the cause of their blindness. (actually logical). Blind peoples traits were always assumed they were there because they were blind, but apparently is not the full picture. This all started when they had a blind person who they decided after many years to test for autism and she was found to be on the spectrum. They suddenly realised that blind people are a group who rarely ever get tested because their blindness shields their autism traits. (In other words, their autism traits are assumed to be contributed to their blindness as a condition). We already know through research that the majority of those with another condition, prosopragnosia, are on the spectrum. (Quite a high figure as well. Was either 65% or 85%. (I know it ended in a 5 and was an even number at the front... Need to go through and get the figures from watch what I watched before).
