Does anyone have any experience, or have heard of any report about the
use of : Thimerosal as a homeopathic remedy - in potency form, in the
treatment, or starting the treatment of an autistic pt., or the use of
Mercury for that matter. ?

Any information is much appreciated.

Sorry this response is so late, but my computer has been in the shop for repairs.

Using Thimerosol to treat autism is one of those ideas that, while logically appealing, makes for questionable homeopathy. You should treat on the basis of the person's symptoms, not on any facile assumptions about causation.

That said, Paul Herscu, who's pretty much specializing in autistic kids now, has observed that kids who reacted adversely to Thimerosol will repertorize out as needing Mercurius.
