Autism / Autism Spectrum Support Group

Autism is classified as a neurodevelopmental disorder which manifests itself in markedly abnormal social interaction, communication ability, patterns of interests, and patterns of behavior. Although the specific etiology of autism is unknown, many researchers suspect that autism results from genetically mediated vulnerabilities to environmental triggers.

DAN! Doctors

Can anybody recommend a good DAN! doctor in the Midwest, preferrably Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, or Missouri?? I really want to start this, but I live in Iowa, and I haven't found any of these doctors in my state, but I am very eager and willing to travel if that's what it takes to help my little boy.

What a loving parent you are. I do hope you find that DAN doc you are looking for and only wish I knew of someone who could help with this.

Hi, I don't live in your area sorry. I live in NJ and I went online and looked for DAN doctors on the Rimland site. I am drawing a blank of the name of the site. I will try and find it for you. I do go to a DAN! dr. perhaps you could give her a call and get a referral. Dr. Wendy King In Springfield, NJ. I found her number it is 973-218-9191. Sorry I couldn't be more help, but maybe she would know. She goes to all of the DAN! conventions and meeting. Hope this help. Good Luck. Denise

I live in Wisconsin, but only about 30 minutes from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Here are some DAN doctors in WI and MN. Most of them have long waiting lists so it is good to call asap. I called in late Nov. to see Dr. Wand and cannot get an appt. until March. Good Luck!

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
