Re: Help about pedi-neuros

Dr.s are followers not leaders. The leadership personalities leave the

profession for politics. Neurologists want you to keep needing meds. That way

you will be the bread and butter patients of the practice. Regular small

incoming money!! We used to go to the one in Ga who was fighting Freel's

case for hbot for medicaid. Now I take my daughter to an adult neuro. After the

last 40 last summer, I reduced her meds 33%. She now takes 2 pills per day

instead of 3. Sue

I just joined, so I don't know if you (anyone) can help on this subject.

My 3mo old g'daughter (Ally) has mild/moderate(?)HIE. I've been

researching HBOT for about 2 wks in hope that there would be a benefit

for her. Ally's parents have approached she medical team (thru the

pediatrician)as to their position re: HBOT. Her pediatric neurologist

just responded with a resounding NO!! He stated that, of the 900

members in his association, none of them support the use of HBOT.

There is a recent article in their newsletter that evidently sites

" numerous " problems, including seizures while undergoing treatment

(and not being able to provide aid until decompression is complete).

He stated that he has (2) of his patients that have gone thru the

treatments (@ the same facility that would provide treatment to ALLY)

& haven't shown ANY benefits.

Unfortunately, I feel like I'm putting my son-in-law in the middle, as

I'm not in direct contact w/the Dr. I've suggested that, since the

assoc & this Dr. are pointing out that there is no research supporting

the " benefits " and are using these examples (seizures,etc) as

potential " risks " , would be kind enough to give me the links

supporting these risks?

Can anyone offer some support (documents/links, etc), so I can feel

confident in pursuing HBOT for ALLY? Ultimatsly, it isn't my call to

make. I just want my kids to be as informed as they can be when they

decide.

Thank you,

Terry Miner

Sue,

Who were you seeing?

Did you ever discuss HBOT?

When was the last time you saw them, and do they know HBOT has now been proven

necessary to correct and/or ameliorate pediatric brain-injury?

I can't imagine the malpractice suits (at this point) for not prescribing HBOT.

Terry--can you fax a copy of that article to me at 815-366-7962. Also, who's the

pediatric neurologist who said NO! If you could get me his/her name I may be

able to find some additional data to help you make your decision.

After you fax the article--after--because if you show this before they may not

give you a copy of the article--pediatric neurologists are such weenies and

whiners--go to http://www.harchhyperbarics.com/video.htm and ask the neuro if

he/she can produce the same results.

Terry,

Good for you for helping to find out info for your granddaughter.

Please research Dr. Dan Rossignol, Dr. Jeff Bradstreet and Dr.

Neubrander http://www.drneubrander.com/dev/index.html.

While they are all doctors treating Autism, these doctors have been

researching HBOT over the last several years. Look at the Autism One

http://www.autismone.org/homepage.cfm files and find the topics on

HBOT - you can downloard & listen for free also do the same for the

Defeat Autism Now conferences http://www.autism.com/. Find these

doctors and I think you'll find some answers that may help your

family. Check the conferences for the last 2-3 years.

On a personal note - I was afraid of HBOT because of the " potential "

for seizures. My son has an abnormal EEG - but no outward seizure

activity. But, we participated in Dr. Bradstreet & Dr. Granpeesheh's

study for mild HBOT - my son 3.5 yo did 80 dives in a 4 month

period. We saw very good gains, no problems. This is definitely the

future of medicine - a very powerful tool. Don't let short sighted

doctors let their ego or own personal motives get in the way of

unlocking your baby's potential! Look to doctors who are willing to

think outside the box - this is the only way things are changed.

Good luck and God bless your family.
