Hi, I know how he feels because I was diagnosed at a similar age to your son and I am pretty sensitive to certain tastes; I have a different meal to the rest of the family a lot of the time. I’m vegetarian and a very fussy eater and somtimes I have to take vitamins. I’m 20 years old now and I still find eating very stressful.
