Great News About Shannon
Mike's big sister, whom I will call Shannon, went to see the applied kinesiologist chiropractor yesterday for the first time. The chiro was able to determine that Shannon does NOT have the ammonia problem that Mike and I have. The chiro gave Shannon a whiff of ammonia and then tested her muscle responses. They were fine and normal. For Mike and me, they are weak for a long time, indicating that the body can't deal with the stuff (although having some ammonia in your cells in normal, having too much is a big problem).
Shannon has a diagnosis of Asperger's and is functioning fairly normally at age 20. Unfortunately she can't tell what other people are thinking, which hampers her.
There are plenty of people on the autism spectrum who do not have the ammonia issue, especially people under the age of 10 or so, accordng to Yasko. Those without ammonia issues are easier to treat.
