I was looking at your ped rhuemy list and thought you might want to know

that Dr. Helen Emery is moving her practice to Oregon. I see her at

Shriners in Sacramento Ca and she has not said that she is moving there but

I did get this information from my CCS nurse in Tehama County and I also so

it posted in another pediatric rhuematologist list. I still hope she is

going to come down to Shriners for their once a month clinic; but i have a

feeling that she will be phasing out of it. However if this information is

correct it will be a great thing for those of you who live in Oregon as she

is a fabulous doctor.

Hi a,

Can only speak from personal experience. I am a 44 year old woman going

through the early stages of perimenopause, which is like puberty in reverse.

Your

hormones go pretty haywire (well, for many women, anyway) and it's not uncommon

to have an exacerbation in pms symptoms, as well as a plethora of other

symptoms (night sweats, hot flashes, crushing fatigue, migraines,

palpitations...you name it). That was the case for me and I dreaded those two

weeks every

month, which left me pretty well incapacitated. There was no support from my gyn

(a

woman exactly my age who admitted to me that she was menopausal), who told me

it was 'just pms' and there was nothing she could do apart from put me on the

bc pill. I left her office feeling like a scolded, silly child and that I

must be crazy to think I could be starting the change of life.

Well, that's the background, anyway. I did my first flush in March, as I was

having GB probs - namely colic - that was also increasing in frequency, which

I now understand is very much related to estrogen dominance. After my flush, I

was totally amazed that all my pms symptoms all but diminished to nothing the

month following and have remained that way. That's not to say that all the

other change of life symptoms have diminished. I have noticed an increase in

some other perimenopause symptoms, but I can honestly say (apart from the

palpitations, which are a little unnerving, though benign), I would rather have

these

than the debilitating pms.

The other thing is that with my flush, I also started taking conscious

responsibility for my diet. This has played a huge role, too. While the liver

flush

cleansed me of a fatty, sluggish liver and GB (allowing my liver, I believe,

to get rid of excess estrogens), I found it of high priority to get my diet in

shape, as well as including healthy supplements and to begin a regular

exercise regimen. Flaxseed oil is particularly good for hormonal imbalances, as

well

as for healthy functioning of the liver and GB.

Can't really comment on the acne issue, as I'm a bit past that stage now, but

wish I had known about flushes for my daughter who actually went on a course

of Accutane, twice, for her cystic acne. Although the drug worked, the

side-effects of that were miserable for her, but at the time we were unaware of

any

alternatives and had tried pretty much everything else. in retrospect, would

definitely have tried liver flushing and diet modifications, first.

Not sure that flushing will promote period regularity, but it certainly goes

a long way to rid the body of fatty buildup that blocks breakdown and

excretion of excess hormones. This I can attest to from my own personal

experience,

though I would say that flushing goes hand in hand with careful diet, otherwise

its like cleaning out your septic tank and then stuffing it with rubbish

again...(Weird analogy, but you get the picture).

All the best to you with your flushing experience. Let us know how it goes

for you and, if you see any improvement in your acne! It's so valuable to have

these personal accounts available to us all, as what better evidence is there

than this when no funding is available for scientifically run clinical trials?

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, so to speak.

Peace, n

Hi ,Yes my husband knows he is depressed and is being treated. My husbandhas had a heart attack about two months ago. I think all the stress fromhome was one of the main stress in why it happened. Physically he isdoing a lot better, mentally he knows he can have no added stress. Well,this isn’t happening. School just started back, episodes after episodeshave been happening. My husband snarls at my son until the last two daysI have seen a major change in my husband. I think he realizes he has tobe more patient with my AS son. I think it all boils down to my sonbeing so gifted and high functioning Autism can be very confusing. Myhusband tends to think it’s all my son and not the AS. I am confusedmyself. I as in tears last night due to trying to get my son to do hishomework. I warmed dinner three times and I finally left it up to him tofinish his work or no playstation. This finaly worked but because itwasn’t neat

enough, my husband kills all the good work he did do bytaking away his privilege of playing games. I can’t win here. I did feelfor my son after so many hours of persuasive talking of trying to gethomework accomplished. I just told my husband in private, I can’t dealwith this, this year. I don’t know what IM going to do or what options Ihave but I can’t get that stressed out myself everynight just to getwhat we need him to do, done. Of course hubby doesn’t understandthat….thinks I should sit back and let him take over, too harsh he is.Is it something I am doing wrong?Debs in Bama Debs,

I have the same problem at home. We are two weeks into school and my son keeps ending up in detention because he won't do his work. My instinct to handle the situation was the complete opposite of my husband's (step-father). I spoke to my son's neuropscyhologist and she said the behavior is a normal 9-year old, the problem is, as I expected, he doesn't "get" the consequences, therefore he's not trying to control is behavior. I didn't tell my husband "I told you so", thought I wanted to badly. Instead, I just gave him the instructions the doctor gave me. However, my husband is still barking his orders when I'm not present. They are different than mine. Forcing me to choose sides, and confuse the message to my son that my husband and I are a united front. I don't know what to do. My son is starting therapy again next week. I think I'll ask if we can have some family

therapy as well. I don't know how to make my husband stop being so harsh.

I'm trying to make everyone happy, but no matter what I do, it's not working. I feel so torn between the two.

I'm so glad I'm not alone. I've been dealing with this for so long. My son's father is very much in the picture and he's the same as my husband. He as never accepted the Autism and because our son is so high functioning he tires to "drives" the Autism out of our son. The poor kid just gets it where ever he goes. I'm the only one that seems to support him.

Thanks for listening.

and Debs,

I am right there with you too. My husband

is my son’s father but by adoption not biology.

I deal with all the same issues both of

you are dealing with in the department of parenting differences.

Just wanted to let you know that someone

else was there with you too.

Everybody, thanks for the info on HPV, dysplasia, et. al. But what is Infra-red Coagulation?

Aldara is one of many treatments to use.

My Doctor too uses Infra-red Coagulation to remove high grade dysplasia

and Aldara to treat low grade dysplasia.

Some patients who do not respond to Aldara are later treated with

Infra-red Coagulation.

And patients treated with Infra-red Coagulation, after they are healed,

are often then treated with Aldara to control a recurrence.

Norm -

Very educational - Looks a lot less painful than the surgery I had in '90 - slice and burn for warts. I notice he left the low-grade dysplasia alone.

Thanks for a good source.

The halogen light Infra-red coagulation is too destructive as a removal technique for low-grade anal dysplasia.

Acids or immune activation drugs like Aldara are effective and less destructive.
