Through this blog, internet searches and our health practitioners I've come across five more families dealing with creatine transporter deficiency. My objective is to allow other readers dealing with something similar to gain an understanding of what lies ahead and not to infringe on people's privacy. They live all over the world, from Australia to Germany to the USA and to Canada!
-An 11 month old boy diagnosed just a few weeks ago and the youngest case I have come across.
-A 2 3/4 year old boy diagnosed in May.
-A 3 1/2 year old boy diagnosed at age 3. Began taking the CTD cocktail (arginine, glycine, creatine) in January 2009 and an improvement in language and developmental skills was noted. Yay!
-A 4 1/2 year old boy
-A 9 year old boy
I've also come across two families dealing with GAMT, one of whom has a 2 year-old boy and the other family has 2 children affected, a boy and a girl.
Anyone else?
In the coming weeks I hope to post links to research papers and articles of interest. If you come across anything you'd like me to post, please email me at crtr.boy@gmail.com
