Jane Kelley On (10 Oct 96) was overheard to say to Jerry Schwartz
 JK> JS>FAS and FAE (Fetal Alcoholic Effect) do have some symptoms which
 JK> are similar JS>to ADD: we suspected my son had FAE and were rather
 JK> surprised when the JS>diagnosis came back as ADD.  Of course, when we
 JK> realized that there are JS>treatments for ADD but not FAE we were
 JK> thankful.
 JK> Jerry, some docs consider ADD a form of FAS.  Treatable, but the
 JK> result of alcohol use in the family background.
 Who are these "some docs"?  And where in the medical literature can
 this be found.  You make a lot of bald statements that you obviously
 expect everyone to take a face value...most of us have heard them
 before..recognize them now as the ramblings of someone with an agenda
 of their own.
 JK> These kids respond better to dietary measures aimed at specific
 JK> neurotrasmitters rather than drugs.
 Proof is required for this statement..and don't quote Feingold as the
 proof.
