The patient was born with thrush in mouth and intestines because his mom took antibiotics on and off during pregnancy for tooth abscess. The patient's mother was taking birth control shots every three months when she became pregnant. The mother also took omeprazole for reflux during 3rd trimester. The grandmother reported the patient's mom did have prenatal care, however was unaware of pregnancy initially. The grandmother reported he tolerated antibiotics well for 3 months, but didn't have any flora in his system. The patient had sibling that is 6 years of age, without any medical issues, from different father. The older brother had been adopted to another family. The patient had a reaction to polyethylene glycol 3350 (MSD) for his constipation, previously. The grandmother stated it was due to the polyethylene glycol in the product. He became psychotic, confused, had diarrhea, and bloating that occurred for 2 weeks. A liver panel was drawn and it was normal. The grandmother reported he did not detoxify preservatives - like MSG, sodium glycolate, polyethylene glycol and color additives (especially red and yellow) - these all made him "hyper and difficult". She also reported the patient had been diagnosed with symptoms of celiac disease. Flour worsened his condition. He could tolerate organic milk. The patient had a history of "some of the same events plus some different events" after prior vaccination on 16-DEC-2008, with Hib (manufacturer unknown), DTaP+IPV (manufacturer unknown), rotavirus vaccine (manufacturer unknown) (WAES # 1204USA01193).

The patient's physician recommended treating the fever with TYLENOL and sponge baths. It was reported that about 2 to 3 weeks after vaccination with Hep A (manufacturer unknown), MMR (manufacturer unknown), varicella virus vaccine (manufacturer unknown), PREVNAR, DTaP+Hib+IPV (manufacturer unknown) the patient experienced chicken pox and "about" 1 month after, the patient experienced weight loss, loss of fine motor skills, non communicative, dysphagia and loss of making eye contact. It was reported that the patient lost about 50 percent of his weight, lost 80 percent of his fine motor skills. According to the reporter, prior to these vaccinations, at the subject's last physical he was noted as normal growth and development. The reporter stated that about 4 months after vaccination with Hep A (manufacturer unknown), MMR (manufacturer unknown), varicella virus vaccine (manufacturer unknown), PREVNAR, DTaP+Hib+IPV (manufacturer unknown) (in approximately July 2010), the patient experienced autism.
