Two case reports from patients referred for MELISA® testing by Dr. Jan Croonenberghs, Centre for Child and Adulthood Psychiatry, University of Antwerpen, Belgium.
Summary of findings :
The results of MELISA® testing indicate allergy to thimerosal, methyl mercury and aluminium in the autistic children below. Since the children were exposed to many mercury and aluminium-containing vaccines and exhibited post-vaccination side-effects, it is plausible that they have been sensitized to mercury through vaccinations. The clinical relevance of these findings for the development of autistic behavior remains to be seen.
