(HBOT 5) - Some Strange Behaviors

Today was a mix. He was not very social, but his language was better than ever EVER before. I have heard that HBOT can cause yeast overgrowth and increase intestinal strep. He played long hours of PlayStation today. And he hummed more than ever. He also made more strange growling noises than usual. And some stimming. And he had 3 bowel movements (the third one was very loose and he did it on his underwear).

HBOT Day 5

He went in with Dad today. Dad said that he continued to have trouble during pressurization, but then he was fine. Actually, he was bored. So tomorrow we are taking some memory cards and puzzles so he can play.

Language in the evening was excellent. I need to start writing down new phrases as he says them. His sentences were longer and more complete than ever before. He even appropriately conjugated a verb, which I had never heard him do before. He was upset with Vanessa because she was taking apart a puzzle that he had put together and he turned to his daddy and said: "Daddy, look Vanessa is braking it". Then turned to Vanessa and said: "Vanessa, stop. You broke it." But his sentences were longer and more complete than ever before. He even appropriately conjugated a verb, which I had never heard him do before.". And Vanessa stopped. He had a few other instances today where his language was complex and well thought out.

Behavior was not that great. He had 4 slides of pizza today and became very very silly. Gluten (which I now really think is the glutamate) continues to be an issue. Even with the enzymes.
