Guest guest Posted February 23, 2001 Report Share Posted February 23, 2001 I have had quite a few emails asking me basically the same question so I chose one and am sending my answer to all the lists as I think it will answer everyone in one email :-) Donna :-) < Pardon me for being blunt here,> Of course :-) <but if this guy is just going to send you to Dr. Amy anyway, why don't you just call up her office and make an appointment? Why go to all this trouble just to get his approval?> Several reason's: 1. I live very far away from Dr. Amy. I live in Ohio. Traveling to Louisiana will only be a one or maybe 2 time possibility. I need someone to supervise locally in case we have problems. I want that person to be familiar with my child. He is a good doctor. He has always listened and learned. 2. Insurance reason's My insurance MIGHT pay in part IF I have a referal from my son's pediatrician. We have private insurance as well as a medicaid waiver. The waiver will not cover an out if state Dr. (at least that's what I am told) He also wants to be able to consult with Dr. Amy IF and WHEN we start chelation. He has never done this before. He is at least willing to learn and run the tests. He wants to learn more IF he decides he is OK with doing this he wants to be able to ask Dr. Amy questions. . Due to the laws governing medical practice Dr.'s can only CONSULT on patients they have actually seen. SO we HAVE to see Dr. Amy to get her expertise. He also wants someone who has done this write a protocol for us to follow so that he has a " road map " on what he is supposed to do, what side effects to watch for, what tests to run, what supplements to give, when to do additional testing etc. I really need him to order all the test OR I can't do this. We are already struggling so much financially. My husband works 2 jobs and we still can't pay all the monthly bills let alone pay for medical services and supplements.

Use whatever you need to get it stopped. I my case, I used 10 mg of prednisone every other day, and on the non prednisone days took an NSAID. In addition, a lot of natural anti-inflamatories, such as bromelain, boswella, curcumin, ultrainflamx by Metagenics etc. 2- Then try to find out why the minocin failed. Additional tests may be necessary. In my case I had hypercoaguability in which bacteria uses fibrin to protect themselves.

This may sound insulting, but I honestly don't mean it too. Sometimes we overlook the obvious. Have you asked him why he is screaming? Roxanna's advise is excellent if you have and haven't been able to get an explanation from him as to what is causing him to behave that way. It sounds like something is stressing him out bigtime.

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 Hi! I'm wondering what the classroom is like? Could he have some sensory issues? It could be anything from there's just " too much " in the classroom (pictures, stuff hanging from ceilings) to too much going on at one time, etc. And if it's during lesson time, meaning when all are in their seats supposedly quiet, perhaps the inactivity bothers him or does know just what he should be doing, etc. Someone else also mentioned Tourettes Syndrome, that crossed my mind also. If you think it might be sensory, have him evaluated by an occupational therapist. Also, got this info from one site: " Some students with autism may exhibit excessive passivity, while others display patterns of disruptive or even destructive behaviors. Years ago, the common response to these behaviors was punishment, time out, or exclusion to stop or suppress the behavior problems. The currently preferred approach is known as positive behavior support (PBS), a proactive, constructive educational approach for resolving behavior problems. It is based on extensive research as well as principles regarding the rights of all students to be treated with dignity and to have access to educational opportunities. The PBS approach is supported by the discipline regulations of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). PBS involves a functional behavioral assessment (FBA) and the subsequent development and implementation of an individualized behavior support plan. The FBA process gathers information about the purpose or " function " of the behavior and the circumstances associated with its occurrences and nonoccurrences. The results of the FBA contribute to the individualized behavior support plan, which usually includes procedures for teaching alternatives to the behavior problems, and alterations to the environmental and instructional circumstances most associated with the problems. Such alterations can involve aspects of the curriculum, instructional techniques, social milieu or other feature linked by the FBA to behavior problems. The PBS intervention helps prevent problems from occurring, and helps the student acquire more effective, desirable ways for interacting with the environment. " I got the above from the site below. But also at this site, check out the advocacy page, lots of great stuff there. http://www.tourettesyndrome.net/dunlap_fox.htm > Hi my name is and I have a 7 year old son who has AS. > He is main streamed in the public school system but is > in some special ed classes.

Obviously, they don't know what to do for him and you really need to tell them that time out is not what will help. That just adds more stress which we all know just makes the problem worse for these guys. There is the Balancing the Tray article (I believe its on the website) that would be good to read and give to his teacher if you feel it fits. Its not always the last thing that happened that is a result of the behavior, its usually culmuative. Let us know what they find out!

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 Hi , My son used to do this and it turned out he had sensory integration problems. He experienced the noise of the classroom, the fluorescent lights, the milling around of the students far more intensely than the nt kids. He may be screaming because he is in pain, and it looks like oppositional behavior, but it is a neurological/physical problem that is not being addressed, and that he cannot articulate because he doesn't understand it. Ask for an SIPT (sensory integration and praxis test). It can only be done by an OT who is SIPT certified. Such an ot will be knowledgeable about sensory integration and will probably have many good suggestions. You can also ask for an evaluation of the classroom environment to determine what sensory problems it presents for your son. Part of the solution for my son was incredibly easy and inexpensive. We got a large appliance box and put it in an out of the way quiet area, and put a big pillow and a blanket in the box. Whenever he is feeling overwhelmed, he can go to the box and shut out the world (eliminate the excess sensory input) by crawling in and putting the blanket over the opening. He also goes there when he is having trouble concentrating. He can produce more and better work in the box than he can in the classroom.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2003 Report Share Posted April 3, 2003 Hello , might be because he is overwhelmed or an asperger thing. Mine growls. I agree he should not be punished for this. Does he have an IEP? Have them put " Not to be punished for noises because of his dx's " or something like that.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 Hi & welcome!! DON'T FEEL STUPID!!! Please don't! You said yourself, you had no idea this could happen, pretty much none of us in this group knew of plagio BEFORE our babies developed it!! This is such a growing epidemic today, you're not alone! YES, the DOCband definitely works wonders!! You'll be very pleased with getting your son banded and you'll be very very pleased with the results it will produce! Your ped mentioned neck exercises, does your son's head have a tilt to it? If so, that's torticollis and might be in need of physical therapy. Torticollis is a leading cause of plagio....one of our expert tort parents will chime in here I'm sure. Have you been to Cranial Techs website? www.cranialtech.com Has your son been casted yet?

I didn't know what plagiocephaly was until my son developed it, also. on was fitted for the doc band about 4 1/2 weeks ago and he is doing wonderful and rounding out really nicely. He started the band at 5 months and we are expecting him to be in for another 8 weeks...for a total of 12 weeks. He is in the photo section if you want to compare head shapes. I will be updating it with progress photo(s). Welcome to the group...this is a wonderful group that can guide you and your family. All questions are answered and if you need support you'll get that, too. Good luck and keep us posted regarding your son's journey to a rounder noggin.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 , Same situation here. My daughter had the vacuum used on her, as well. Actually, both of my daughters did. The difference was this: My first daughter was born in a great hospital in NC under a great doctor, and I had commercial insurance. Her head had a swollen spot for a couple of weeks after she was born, then it went away. My 2nd daughter, who is now 8 months old, was born in a crappy hospital with a crappy doctor, and I was on Medicaid. Her swollen spot was there for about 2 months, and now the right side of her head is higher up than the left, actually the left side is depressed, and her plates overlap on one spot, causing a ridge that is visible on her head. She's been in the DOCBand since May 23, and is about to get a 2nd band, because the first was no longer fitting her well. So far, it hasn't done a whole lot for the height of her head, mostly has rounded out a flat spot on the right side of her head that was caused by her sleeping with her head on my arm. They did point out to me today that there is some correction with the height of her head, in that the left side, which is depressed, is looking a little higher, because they are putting pressure low on that side, allowing it to grow upward some. I didn't think she had torticollis, but she apparently has a little, and I'm supposed to be doing exercises with her, but haven't been diligent with it. I'm told this can help tremendously. How old is your son? Hope it works well for you! It's not as bad and traumatic as it may seem. My daughter hardly notices when her band is on. She fusses a little when we put it on, but once it's on, she acts like nothing's different. These folks here are wonderful encouragement, too! I don't get in here as much as I'd like, but they're wonderful, so be sure post and questions or concerns. Lots of support here, I've found!

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 Hi , Welcome to the group! There is NO WAY this is your fault. How could you have prevented a condition that you didn't even know existed! The DOCband is an excellent product and you will be in the very best hands! Did your ped say if your baby had torticollis, it's a tight/twisted muscle in the neck. That's the only reason I can think of that he would recommend exercises. Does your son only like to look to one side? Or does he keep his head titled? Do you have a casting date set yet? Have you checked out Cranial Tech's web site? If not and you'd like to the web address is http://www.cranialtech.com Please keep us posted. > Hi, my name is , and my son has positional plagio. We are > going to get him fitted for a DOC helmet.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 : Welcome to a very special group. What you are going through is very scary and difficult. No one knows what our kids heads will look like years from now so you have to go with " Mom's gut " . Everytime I find it hard to make a difficult decision, I go with what my gut is saying and I never look back. Every time I second guess myself, I end up regretting it. Go with the DOC band. It may be expensive and a hassle, but it will not make the situation worse. The flatness will only get better. You can go to Cranial Technolgies website and find an office near you. Also, if you are near two offices, call both. One may be able to take you sooner. I was very mad in the beginning as well. My son has tort. and the doctor never told me to keep him off his back while awake or move his sleeping positions. You have every right to be mad. As the days go by, the anger will slowly leave you as you see a beautiful head forming. Good luck and I look forward to hearing all the updates.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 , My son wore a DOC band from approx. 5-8 months and he rec'd about 90% correction. It resolved all facial and ear misalignment. I would also ask CT to give you some information regarding stretches- I'll attach a link to give you an idea as well. Good luck and let us know when the casting and/or fitting is going to happen.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2003 Report Share Posted July 27, 2003 Refer her to the book by Cave about Vaccinations. S From: [mailto: mcro99@...] Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2003 12:58:16 EDT Subject: [ ] I need help <html><body> <tt> I need some help. I am not very organized and lately seem to be having more <BR> problems then usual (maybe due to having amalgams removed a month ago, maybe <BR> just age, who knows) just not functioning as well as I want to!! Any way I <BR> need some quick references, sites, to share with someone I just met today. She <BR> has two kids. One 9 and dx'd ADHD and on ritalin since 3. One 6 and constant <BR> yeast, bed wetting, tantruming, on med for reflux, etc. Both allergic and on <BR> allergy meds since the age of 3. Since neither kids are dx'd autistic I don't <BR> know where to start because I am finding when I share articles and sites which <BR> refer only to autism, people whose kids don't have that DX look no further, <BR> thinking this is not their kids problem!  After talking to her today she is <BR> interested in looking into what I was telling her about the vaccine issues and <BR> asked me to send her some info but help what do I send?<BR> Michele<BR> </tt> <br> <!-- |**|begin egp html banner|**| --> <table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2> <tr bgcolor=#FFFFCC> <td align=center><font size= " -1 " color=#003399><b> Sponsor</b></font></td> </tr> <tr bgcolor=#FFFFFF> <td align=center width=470><table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td align=center><font face=arial size=-2>ADVERTISEMENT</font><br><a href= " http://rd./M=244522.3512152.4794593.1261774/D=egroupweb/S=1705061\ 616:HM/A=1595055/R=0/SIG=1247d4o3g/*http://ashnin.com/clk/muryutaitakenattogyo?Y\ H=3512152 & yhad=1595055 " alt= " " ><img src= " http://us.a1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/a/qu/quinstreet/300x250_uofp_purple-arrow\ s2.gif " alt= " Click Here!
