Guest guest Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 Pam, there are Social Security benefit conultants that will work with you to get services for your son. Just do a search of your yellow pages or on the internet. Now, the do charge. Their fee is a percentage of what yor son will receive. I think that there is no charge unless Social Security approves te claim. y siggestion is to get started now because it could take months. Also go back to this group home page and search the archives for old messages.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 You don't need an advocate to get SSI benefits unless you run into problems. All you have to do is call the SS office and apply! It is based SOLELY on the child's income once they reach 18. Even though I had a diagnosis, the SS office insisted on someone they hired to evaluate my daughter AGAIN - grrrr!! Your child will also get Medicaid. My daughter is now 21, and I wish I had known to do this when she first turned 18, but she has been getting SSI for a couple of years now. Also, be sure to get guardianship establised. It was an easy thing to do in our county. Blessings Connie > My son will be an adult soon. Will he then qualify for SSI or food > stamps? He will still live at home.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 I got into this discussion late, but at the Inclusion Works conference in Austin last week, there was discussion about Benefit Planners that can help with Social Security. There are 8 centers in Texas with Benefit Planners, and you can call (800) 772-1213 and ask for the BPAO office closest to you.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Hi Lee I feel for you. I live in South Africa and we are with a very good paediatrician there (the medical system is generally very good so long as you go private) and our paediatrician was at a loss as to what could be wrong with our daughter (even he stopped believing in monthly viruses after about 6 or 7 months). He referred us to a paediatric rheumatologist. Please try and find one of these in hungary (if your doctor can't refer you there should be a medical register of some sort that you could find one yourself) and he/she should be vaguely familiar with periodic fever syndromes and autoinflammatory diseases even if they dont' actually have other children with the syndromes in their care. At least this is what I found to be true in South Africa and although our paediatric rheumatologist is new to these diseases, she doesn't think we're crazy and she's running the right tests to find out exactly which one emma has. I hope this helps Kind regards Inga INFO NEEDED HI EVERYONE DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW OF ANY DOCTORS IN HUNGARY WHO KNOW OF THIS CONDITION? I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU CAN GIVE ME. WHEN I MENTION IT TO DOCTORS HERE AS A POSSIBILITY I GET A BLANK LOOK AND GET TOLD WITH A SMIRK THAT THEY HAVENT HEARD OF ANY SUCH THING.

MY CHILD ISNT THE ONLY ONE HERE THAT I KNOW OF THERE ARE A FEW CHILDREN THAT ARE GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING THAT I KNOW OF.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Well, I know how you feel, we are military and each base we go to have no clue about it. We are stationed in Japan currently and military doctors are the worse! The Japanese are very interested in learning about it, but the military they give you these weird looks like you are stupid or something. And tell us there is no such thing! My wife remembers reading something about a doctor in Hungary who knew about or information try this link http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=577699 Military doctors don't have a clue about , currently last year the doctors here sent me home early from deployment saying it was emergency that my daughter didn't have , but had JRA. I was in Iraq and being sent home, for nothing. We have 5 volume of medical records stating she doesn't have JRA or any Rheumatiod disorders. Now I got orders to deploy again to Iraq area and after 2yrs of my wife trying to get a referral to ENT always being denied. In may she was seen, no one ever knew her tonsils were taken out, no one ever told us her medical records were lost in the states. Here I am pissed off with them, and the ENT didn't take my daughter serious. In the states her lymph node was 3X3cm and was to get FNA done but we couldn't get it done prior to leaving the states. After 2yrs of trying everything to see ENT, she was seen in May 2007, he ordered a CT scan to prove to my wife nothing was wrong. Now he called and wants to do a FNA sometime down the road. I am getting deployed in a few months, they are going to pull this again and say its an emergency. Here they don't know what is, she was diagnosed with it, 2002/2003, tonsills came out fevers slowed down. She still gets the symptoms, but the fevers aren't as high as they use to be and maybe have 4 fevers per year or less. We never gave her steriods.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 HI INGA THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWER. I CANT BELIEVE YOU SOUTH AFRICAN. I AM ALSO A SOUTH AFRICAN AND LIVED THERE FOR 35 YRS! MY SON WAS BORN IN BENONI AND HAD HIS FIRST FEVER AT 6 MTHS OF AGE. HE HAD THEM EVERYMONTH AND AS WE WERENT ON A MEDICAL AID AT THAT TIME WE COULDNT AFFORD TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WE THEN WENT TO IRELAND WHERE THEY PUT IT DOWN TO NEW GERMS AND INVIROMENT. I GIVE UP SOMETIMES AND THINK THAT MAYBE WE WILL JUST HAVE TO ACCEPT THIS BUT ITS NOT ONLY FOR OUR CHILDREN ITS FOR ALL THE CHILDREN TO COME THAT I HAVE TO TRY AND GET THIS CONDITION KNOWN TO THE MEDICAL WORLD HERE.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 That must be so frustrating for you. Have you tried printing out any information written by doctors and taking it to them to read? I would print it out along with our posts about our children who have been diagnosed with this illness. The doctor at children's hospital gave me some hand outs on which I have also seen on line. I hope everything works out for you and your child. . > > HI EVERYONE > DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW OF ANY DOCTORS IN HUNGARY WHO KNOW OF THIS > CONDITION?

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Have you tried this link - http://hungary.usembassy.gov/uploads/images/ms4ydPNthx7wSWHzit0OvQ/doctors_sep06\ ..pdf Here on a military base they actually almost took my wife away, they thought she was crazy everytime she would tell the doctors our daughter has syndrome. They called family advocacy (mental health) on my wife, no one would listen to her. My wife wrote a 9 page complaint about the pediatrics lack of services and care. Changed our kids care to family practice and they never heard of the syndrome either but want to see her in an episode, or when she has burning eyes, or swollen and painfull lymph nodes, or even if she does get a fever. Our daughter had her tonsils out and the fevers slowed down about 4 times a year or less, not as high. We never did the steriod treatment.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 I don't like Dr. Grim's referral to this group in his paper. It would look so much better to have a real website. I would like to see a real site and would donate considerably to get it going, including buying a domain name for three years or so. I can do simple websites and host them for free but I can't do anything that requires any learning right now, like chat, listserve, etc. I can do graphics and make things look pretty (or sophisticated). I would think even a fairly simple website would be better than reference to a group in a published paper. There could still be a link to join this group. All the fabulous " files " of this group could be put on the site, except for anything that would violate copyright. I have a website business I've been trying to get going since 2002. I have it nearly set up, but my intermittent illness keeps me from doing anything on a sustained basis. This is one of my businesses: http://www.sewmagicmoments.com I had this " almost " going in 2006 and then another episode hit. Our " real " business is run through http://www.wyosip.com I do weekly rate updates and make other simple changes as needed. The passworded client area is run through an outside third party. With that simple website and the bank's backing, we have over $200 million under management. I'm also the webmistress for my women's political group but will not reveal it so as to minimize the tar and feathering. If there is anyway I could help or contribute to this effort, I am totally willing, both with time and $$$. Someone just say " go " and I'll go buy a domain name and set up free hosting. We could have something up and running in a week. Val From: hyperaldosteronism [mailto:hyperaldosteronism ] On Behalf Of Dave Yes, there are many blogoshpherical server operators willing to let us in for free. For a small fee, they'd even set up that registry you keep mentioning. More personal. hosting is cheaper and better than ever, and one can make a site that " looks and feels " great with a little help. Had I not been flattened by sciatica and back surgery, I'd have pursued my pal Jerry (jerrymerrill.com) the programmer to point us in the right direction already. is too flighty - they can delete a group on grounds you may never discover. Anybody with the DMCA formula can challenge copyright with them and poof. You could have everything has - chat, e-mail listserve, graphics and players, etc. RSS. But you can make it so much easier to navigate, and link up to other places. Now I'm fighting post-op physio, and a spiro to inspra change, but did build, run and sell a website business 2000- 2006. It isn't that hard with tech help. I am up at the university in 2 communication grad seminars, so have easy access to the tech building too. . .someone could probably get a master's thesis out of this. . .or at least a BS capstone.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Wow, Dr. Grim. Here you are trying to get your body repaired and you still have had time for us. My best to you! Val From: hyperaldosteronism [mailto:hyperaldosteronism ] On Behalf Of lowerbp2@... I think my wife owns several domain names thru a web hosting site and will see what I can find out before anyone jumps in. Thanks I am going home from rehab today after 3 weeks post tearing my quadiceps tendon. In a straight leg brace which will be in for another month at least. Also on coumadin for 2 more months as had blood clots in my injured leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Val, That's very nice of you to offer. Do you (sorry if I've asked you before, Val) or does anyone else have web-based database user interface coding experince for the hypertension database that we'd want to host on the site? Dr. Grim and I have an initial cut of the data model for the HTN database, but nobody yet to develop the user interface. This will allow us to capture our stories in a way that has the potential of providing considerably more comprehensive insights into the progression, mis-diagnoses, various complications, remediations, and long-term prognosis for hyperaldosterone disorders.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 We already own ours. May your pressure be low! Clarence E.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 No, I do not have that experience and I'm too dumb right now to try to learn it. I could post stories and/or take data and enter it into a database type spreadsheet or other form, but I wouldn't have a clue how to have a user type interface. From the looks of our files, even stories are few and far between. I think it is critical to have a place where sick people can learn from the many years of errors and mistakes with others. Even if I put an initial site together, I'd want someone else here to have passwords, etc. to take it over if necessary. I would be happy to completely turn it over to a professional at a moment's notice.
