My previous tenant was into martial arts and had a lot of rubber mats around for his workouts. They left traces of rubber on the kitchen floor. We tried every special chemical remover known to mankind. The only thing that worked was nail polish remover and a scrub brush. Just don't forget to leave the window open.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Pete or Anyone with A-1, I just set up to run my 9 yo and could get no steady connection from the A1...just a bouncing between "connecting" and "connected. All power is exactly same, there appears to be no rhythm, all connections at head and plugs were checked and good. It now continues to bounce even tho my son is long gone. What was the solution when this came up about 3 months ago....? No hurry...I just need a solution by morning...9am West Coast time! Thanks for all help! Lori/Brainworks/Alaska Re: Home-Based Training Discussion Pete, I've been using the BrainMaster for home-based training for the past year. I agree with Lynn that it is a great system for that purpose because it allows the clinician to maintain control over the protocols. Also, session files can be e-mailed back and forth, which allows me to view session results, get feedback via telephone or e-mail about training effects, then make any necessary protocol adjustments and e-mail the next lot of sessions. I'm charging a flat monthly fee for supervision, which I think helps with motivation. I tell folks that they can greatly reduce the cost per session by doing more of them per month. I live at a seaside tourist destination, so people sometimes fly in for a family vacation for a week or two, and during that time I do my initial assessments and then see them for neurofeedback sessions every day (or even twice per day). During that time I'm making any necessary protocol adjustments and also training the family members about electrode placement, site preparation, getting a good signal, etc, so that over the last few sessions they are actually running the sessions under my observation. Then when they get home there is no big transition. I do sometimes see a tapering off of "sessions per week" (eg, from 10 per week back down to about 2-3 per week over time), but that is no big deal. Motivation is usually pretty good. I'm also using BrainMaster's remote units in a school setting. I have trained teachers how to act as technicians and run sessions, but they still e-mail results to me and we have teachers and parents filling out weekly forms to monitor progress and make any necessary protocol adjustments. That program is working very well. The kids just need to step out of their classroom for half an hour, do a session, then go back to class. No big deal. They are six autistic kids in a special school setting and are each doing three neurofeedback sessions per week. We are getting great results, including the two functionally non-verbal kids starting to speak in short sentences and the two epileptic kids have both stopped having seizures. We have just heard that this program has won a regional Showcase Award for Excellence in Innovation with the state Education Department. The finals in July carry a $20,000 prize for the winning school, so we are looking forward to that. I really do think that remote training can work well with the right people and the right supports in place.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I have read a lot here too! My " type " of chondromalacia is where the femur meets the knee, my bone is degenerating. I was told that there was nothing more they could do, besides clean it up maybe yearly. Well, that turned into 2x a year, then the last couple of rounds, due to scar tissue and locking it would have only been 12 weeks.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 When you say " where the femur meets the knee " what do you mean by " knee " ? The tibia? It's usually the kneecap rubbing against the femur. If the femur is actually rubbing on the tibia, that would mean you have some seriously missing meniscus & articular cartilage and are a candidate for a knee replacement, depending on your age and how disabled you are. If by " knee " you mean kneecap, it seems to me that you should consider a lateral retinacular release (if the place where they rub is lateral). Do you find the cleanups help (until you need another one)? Have you tried McConnell taping? Ann Re: help I have read a lot here too!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 I apologize, I guess I should have worded this differently. My femur is degenerating just above where it meets the knee. I have not had a good experience, with the cleanups. The more surgery the less time they seem to work. The scar tissue forms so quickly. I have not ever heard of McDonnell taping, would that be a consideration for my placement of my degeneration? Krisstina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Well, I am a newbie here and I am truly sorry that you are having to go through what you are right now. It will all be better soon for you I hope. What I do know from past tries at losing weight is to first and foremost, relax. Take some me time to rationalize what is going on, to allow you to take in everything that is going on, and to give yourself time to prioritize some time to do what you need to do for yourself. Example would be, go out for several walks when you can to get in your aerobic time in, especially before meals. I have been told that if done an hour or more before a meal time, that it curbs your cravings to eat more. Also with exercise you gain those happy endorphins (sp?) that will help keep your spirits up as you need to get by until your life is more back in order. As far as foods go, well, take it in stride. Eat what you can that is offered healthywise, at other people's houses. Most people do not mind when you ask if they have salad fixings and will think it is a great idea to have a salad before dinner (if they have the stuff). If you are at friends houses and it is feasible, make yourself at home, even in their refrigerator. Around our house, anyone who is a friend, helps their selves to our refrigerator if they want something. Some will not go into it but on the most part, when we say, if it is in there, fix it, they do. Oh yeah, and places like Mcs and Burger King have some really great salads, just watch the salad dressings closely and don't forget to drink as much water as you need that you can get your hands on. I hope that some of this helps. I have not been around long and am in no way an expert, in fact I just asked about some assistance myself, but I just felt I had to try. I sincerly hope that everything gets better for you and your family fast and you can get back on your plan asap! Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Hey! I didn't even get my 4 week photos developed... much less mailed out. But remember... this is a lifestyle we're developing, and it goes beyond the challenges. If your results are not what you had hoped, sign up for the next challenge. But in the meantime, congratulate yourself for becoming stronger and healthier! ; ) First: thank God you're alive and that your house didn't suffer a lot of damage... because some people did have worse losses than we did. Then: Cut yourself some slack for now... natural disasters suck! We just got our power back on and have had to throw quite a bit of food away, too. That's not a typical everyday occurrence. Lets just do the best we can and start back as soon as we can. I'm thinking next Monday would be a good deadline for me... but if I DO get to the gym before then, I'll be pleased as punch with myself. : ) (I almost went to the gym just to get a shower... but the cavalry arrived today, and boy did that shower feel oh-so-good!) ~Lydia " Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'Wow - what a Ride!'

Well, our electricity has been out since Sun afternoon and my eating has not been good. We had to throw all our food in the fridge and freezer away and have been eating at resaurants and over family's houses since Sun. It has just been crazy and my mind has just not been on eating healthy. On top of that, I haven't been keeping up with my exercising since Sun because it is just too hot in our house. I am at my parent's house right now. I need some words of encouragment to stay on track. I had entered the official competition and just mailed in my 4-week results when all of this happened.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 We actually see nausea, taste changes & smell sensitivity in our patients quite a bit...some think it may be related to the anesthesia from surgery staying in the system (I heard from my doc it stays in fat cells for ~ 6 wks or so but I haven't researched that specifically). I believe the University of Nebraska Medical Center is currently doing a study on this phenomenon. We put our patients on 30 days of a PPI & give them compazine PRN if they're having these troubles.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 I do a little protein tasting seminar in the community. If you haven't tried them, it is a worthwhile experience. One of the issues is that the smell of the supplements is often overwhelming. It is easy to get burnout...I recommend sipping form a "closed" container system so that patients don't have to smell the protein with each sip. Sometimes patients would rather not drink than have to smell the protein. There are a lot of options for protein. Sometimes when you have a bad experience (vomiting) you recall this when you smell the food --even if the food wasn't really the culprit. I personally can't handle "fish" smells because I had a bad experience during pregnancy 8 years ago! I would try a different MVI, perhaps consider the liquid children's or liquid centrum. Hydration should be checked, at least do the orthostatic measures. Marginal ulcers can present similarly, though you didn't mention pain. Also, sometimes if patients wait too long between meals, they get nausea when they finally do eat. Small frequent meals is important. Hope this helps! Jeanne Blankenship, MS RD UC Medical Center Sacramento, CA --------- Help I need some help. I have a patient approximately 31/2 weeks s/p RNY (open). This patient has been consuming mostly dairy sources of protein. She suddenly is having trouble with the children chewable vitamins and feeling like she has heartburn after eating. Smells are now starting to bother her as well. I encouraged her to increase her fluid which appears it is on the low side. Any thought or avenues to look at that I may have missed. Could dehydration cause this nausea and food aversion?

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Have fun Sharon, It may be a thing she will grow out of - or she may get worse! My friends daughter with DS - Joan has always been into kissing and Trent was her boyfriend, and would phone him, have been seen cuddling and being very amorous in a bean bag at school- I blame Joan 100% my darling son could no way be involved at all! LOL. Joan is now nearly 21 and all she talks about is her boyfriend and getting married and is full on imagination. As she and Trent no longer go to the same school she has dropped him - she tells everyone that her 'new' boyfriend and her are engaged and everything she owns was bought by him and phones him often much to his parents annoyance. Her mother now has the phone locked from her predatory calling. At a recent party Joan re acquainted herself with Trent, didn't take long and she and him were away from the others inside watching tele, then they disappeared into another room, with the door closed - fortunately innocent, as it was the room that housed the playstation and music but I didn't know that. She flirts with all the males - personally I would hate to be a male carer near her she could innocently get you into trouble. Another friends daughter Tamika, at around 13yo was always talking about boyfriends and claimed she was going to marry one of her teachers. Tamika has grown out of it. As an outsider looking in, the differences between these two families are - 1. Joan's mother is in her mid 60's as has a large family ranging in age from Joan 20 to her eldest in their 40's. 2. Tamika's mother is in her late 40's and has two other daughters one older and one younger - so in this case I would assume the other two have put Tamika into line about boyfriends.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2005 Report Share Posted April 16, 2005 Greta, I feel your pain. Feel free to contact me off group at m_bernstein@... , a great book is: "Perfect Targets" by Rebekah Heinrichs, as far as being set up..... ~hugs~ help I need help, my son is 9 1/2 Aspergers & ADHD he has had a difficult schoolyear socially. Academically his grades are great, but his so called friendsseem to bait him and he gets in trouble several times a week. He is angryand rages several times a week and then will go to the depths of disperseand talks about killing himself. He is on Concerta & Rispidal, we triedProzac a couple of years ago and it made him angrier. I don't know how tohelp him. I have him in a social skills group weekly, he takes judo, cubscouts, and music lessons. we have backed off the outside activitiesbecause he was raging at his lessons. I can not find another school settingthat would work and the public school is no help. I think I might homeschool him until he can acquire the skills to deal with people who push hisemotional buttons. He saw a therapist and she told us she could not helpuntil he was older for psychotherapy. any suggestions would be welcome Ijust don't know what else to doGreta in MD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2005 Report Share Posted April 16, 2005 Dear Greta, I sympathise with you, really i do. My son BJ has semantic pragmatic disorder and mild AS, iwent through exactly what your going through when BJ was 6 half yrs, i was at my wits end, and also on anti depressants myself, my son did actually try and throw himself out his bedroom window, so i had to put locks on them and at one point he was going to try and hang himself, the only reason i say try is because i caught him trying to attach a pipe on the top of a door. I didnt sleep much i can tell you. BJ eventually got the obsession out of his head, not sure how, and i know this isnt much help to you right now. So hopefully your son will. BJ still has probs at school even though academically he is doing well. He always gets into trouble at school. All i can say is your not alone in all of this, and keep talking to your son about how he feels, if he can, I do with BJ, so i think thats why i get the love and the hate from him. It's going to be hard, i'm not saying its not. I still watch BJ like a hawk even today, just incase. The thought of them doing somethiong all the time will never leave you, because your a mom. Best wishes to you and ill be thinking about you both., Netty >From: " Randy " <blankra@...> >Reply-Autism and Aspergers Treatment ><Autism and Aspergers Treatment > >Subject: help >Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2005 15:17:29 -0400 > >I need help, my son is 9 1/2 Aspergers & ADHD he has had a difficult school >year socially.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2005 Report Share Posted April 16, 2005 Charlotte, I am not saying they are right, but I have heard that too. When I was working with pre-teens who I thought needed counseling they told me that there is not a lot you can do for someone unless they were able to conceptualize theory. They focused on group therapy for social skills and peer facilitating until the children were about 17 years old and willing to look at themselves. I think it is just different schools of thought. If I thought my child needed it and benefitted from it; I would fight for it and find someone who believes that it works for children!
