Is this normal?

[Guest guest]

Was this take out or did your mother-in-law or father-in-law fix this meal?

If they fixed it, ask them what they used to prepare it. It isn't unusual

for oriental foods to be cooked in peanut oil.

It seems to me this is your body telling you what happens when you aren't

eating right. It could be it's way of telling you it doesn't like pork any

more or it might be the oil it was cooked in, or a reaction to the breading.

It is not unusual for the body to react like this after you haven't had the

foods that were avoids for you in the first place. You were so used to

eating them that your body didn't have a way to tell you they were bad for

you. Now it does. This is one of the reasons to stay on the right way of

eating. Not everyone reacts this way, but some do. If the family can't

understand, just tell them you are allergic to the avoids. If these are some

of the foods you really like try one at a time and see if you have the same

reaction next time. Then you will know what you shouldn't eat the next time

after that. I'm not saying it couldn't be something else but trying them one

at a time only, will definitely let you know and your reaction may only be

to one thing. Then you will know.

Boy, sometimes I get really sick too but I love that takeout Chinese food.

It's usually full of avoids like wheat noodles etc so I don't do it very

often.

Another thing to keep in mind is that Chinese cooking has wheat and corn

starch in it. I was amazed to find out that most of the sauces used have

this, including soy sauce. Plus factor in the MSG, which for me is an

instant headache. Every time I eat Chinese I feel lousy afterwards, but boy

do I still crave it!

thanks sarah,

It was take out chinese, so I don't know what they cooked it in. But

that make sense. My body was used to alot of junk. I am feeling

better eating right.

thanks

<<It was take out chinese>>

All commercial Chinese food has corn starch in the sauce as a thickener.

Some also use MSG and avoid oils. The only way to guarantee that Chinese

Food from a restaurant is avoid-free is to have it steamed with no sauce.

Jerry, yes, unfortunately, that is normal. I don't know how much

you're sipping at one time but try the smallest sip you can (and

just one) and then wait for about 15 minutes and try again. See if

that helps at all. If it continues, call Dr. K to see if he has any

tips.

Talk to Dr. K, Jerry, to rule out any problems, then you might try (with Dr.

K's approval, of course) some Gas-X. It worked for me.

Best wishes for the end to this problem!

Jerry,

That was me when I ate at first....You still have a lot of swelling in

your poor tummy so it hasn't got much room for food, much less air. Eat slow

and be patient. Soon you will be like me and wondering if your eating TOO

MUCH.....LOL.

Kelli,

Yes! That is normal..

Olivia is a lot more comfortable in her cast than she ever was in her rigid brace. The plaster can breathe with his body, and it DOES give a little. Not to mention the support he is getting. That has got to make him breathe easier...

About the cast getting dirty, I always used just soap and water. I always had a blowdryer on hand, too. Just to make sure that I got the cast clean and dry immediately. Keeping it clean will be the challenge, now. (Any dirtiness left in between his cast and skin will cause skin breakdown.)

I have never heard of using nail polish remover, but as long as it didnt get on his skin, Im sure it would clean the outside of the cast.

Check out the Cast care page on www.infantilescoliosis.org, and Tawney, Bridgette, and Crista may have some advice to offer.

About the cast flaking problem....Were you provided with moleskin? Moleskin must be placed on all edges of the cast. This prevents cast flaking, and the scratching of Santiagos skin. If you cant find any over there, let me know....and we will get some to you immediately. (fedex) Tape and gauze will definately work until we can get you some moleskin.

Kelli, you are doing great! I am so happy for you and your darling!

Let us know if you need moleskin! We will send it asap.

talk soon,

HRH

[Guest guest]

Kelli,

Do you have a hole in the back of the cast? Also, did they put a t-shirt under the cast?

Crista

[Guest guest]

,

I have a ton of Moleskin. Do you have any?

[Guest guest]

Not usually but it was for me. It was so bad for me my doc had me on several

different asthma meds until my anxiety was under control. If it's not getting

better or it's getting worse please see your doc ASAP. There's no reason to

suffer from that. Mine was so bad I could only sleep a couple of hours a night.

It was terrible and only made my anxiety worse.

Alot of people do experience physical symptoms from depression and anxiety. That

*has* to be addressed as well or all the treatment in the world is not going to

help a whole lot.

Barbara

Is this normal?

I was on here sometime ago and got a really good response from

everyone. Thanks.

Anyway - my panic attacks have subsided some, but I still feel weird

sometimes.(long story). Anyway, I sometimes have long events of

shortness of breath, when I feel panicky or not. Like today -

shortness of breath all day, literally. Its not so bad that someone

would notice, but I def. can tell. Is that normal for someone who

suffers anxiety?

Thanks in advance.

[Guest guest]

I've found that in the past, when my anxiety is in full bloom, I always feel

like I can't catch my breath, and I run out of air before the end of a

If I recall rightly, I did when I first started the Effexor. Even now every once

in a great while I have that. I don't recall it lasting for any length of time

though.

If it keeps up you may have some congestion in either your sinuses or in your

ears or both. Or it could be the Effexor though I don't remember that being one

of the side effects of any duration.

Barbara

Is this normal?

As I said in my first post I just started taking Effexor XR Wednesday.

I felt pretty good all day today until this afternoon and have been dizzy

ever since. It almost seems like my equilibrium is off. Has anyone

experienced this?

Stef, anytime you are worried, you should call your pediatrician or

immunologist -- whichever one wants to hear from you. This could be a

post-IVIG reaction -- but it sounds more like the IVIG may be actually

working on a bug that was already there. Fever is an immune response to

something. So, I suspect that she's feeling rotten because her body is

fighting something. I would certainly let the doctor know and keep an

eye on things.

Hello Stef,

Alec has been on subQ for a year and a half and we have never had any fever

after infusion that was not from some sort of infection. But that I know of not

related to the infusion. The only reaction he gets is some redness and swelling

at the site that is gone by the next day.

Take Care,

Towma

Thanks Dale.

I spoke to the immuno doc on call and they said to piggyback motrin

and tylenol. She then said that we shouldn't use anymore from that

batch...I'll check with her regular immuno tomorrow am about that.

Initially the temp went down with the motrin, but after only 2 hours

it's going back up (went down from 102 to 101.2 now it's 101.6).

SO....I have already talked to the immunologist on call and then the

ped on call and then the company that supplies her IG product - so

they're all in the loop. If she gets worse before the a.m. we have to

go to the ER....what a PAIN!

I'm worried for her still - but I am trying NOT to stress TOO much

(hard to really NOT freak....but I am trying!)

Thanks for the good thoughts, keep em coming

Thanks Towma,

I'm HOPING it's a bug and not related to the product. This did

happen one other time - same time frame - I think 2 weeks ago (I'd

have to look at my log) and she had 101.8 and she was inconsoleable

for about 2 hours - but eventually the temp went down and she was

okay. Maybe it's something like that....thanks for the

reassurance....

Our son is 8.5yo and gets in people's faces all the time. No matter

how much we talk about it, social stories etc he still gets in people's

bubble. It's touch and go...some people freak out and others are

okay. He's typically quite nice and says hi to everyone he encounters

in public. Never know what he will say...sometimes it's embarassing

and other times it's quite sweet. Jake's been doing this for 3-4 years.

michele,

Well some nt kids may do it, Iwould look of the extreme of it like is it all the time,last very long such things as that.But my sons that are diagnosed get in peoples faces (they do not understand personal space) and yes they have screamed and stuff never gritted their teeth but I think it is how your kid reacts .(not all kids grit their teeth) hope this helps

my guess is that it is either a stim or that your son wants to interact with people but does not know how. i do not believe it is a stage that NT children go through. i would suggest that you give your son an appropriate alternative...for example, have him say hi if he is verbal or wave if he is not verbal. or if this is with people he knows well, perhaps he can give a hug. as he gets older and gains more skills he should be able to find some more appropriate ways to approach others.
