Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Carol, I used to have this happen with my CII, and it turned out it was the RF. I know the Auria and the CII are different, but I think your audie should be able to fix your problem....... S. CII 5/01 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----- Original Message ----- From: cbm_1933 I posted this earlier but no replies. My processor is cutting out and I wondered if any of you had similar problem? It is not related to any noise or loud sound. It cuts out when it is quiet; when I may be speaking; when some one else may be speaking; or if I am just riding along in silence in the car. any time. Dead space lasts about 4 seconds. It can occur several times close together and then not occur again for hours. It started on 2nd mapping day when I was switched to the BTE Auria. We thought it was batteries not fully charged but all batteries now fully charged and also happens on any and all batteries. I also changed head pieces thinking maybe short in the cord but that did not correct it either. I see my audie Friday for third map and she knows about it and is checking with AB and will also check all my programs but if any of you have had similar experience please let me know so I can share with my audie. thanks for any help.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 Donna, did you read the " draft letter to new members " that was just posted yesterday??? It explains how the group works, how to change your settings, etc. You can see it here: achalasia/message/15155 Of particular importance is the part where it tells you how to adjust your email preferences.... I'll cut and paste that below for you. Nobody can control your membership except for you -- a few mouse clicks is all it takes to either go 'no mail' or unsubscribe from the group altogether. There's no need to be bombarded with emails if you don't want to receive them. Debbi ----------------------- You can change your email settings at any time by using the " Edit My Membership " link on the upper right side of any group webpage. You may change the email address to any other address you may have (which requires you to " verify " the address by replying to an email that will send to the alternate address.) [Please be aware that any address you use to post to the group will be visible via the internet to the public and to other group members via email.] You can also change the frequency with which you receive emails. " Individual Emails " means that each time someone posts to the group via website or email, you will receive an email containing that post. " Daily Digest " means that the day's posts will accumulate into one big email, one message listed after another. At the end of the day (or more often if there are more than 25 messages in any given day), will send this one long email to your inbox. " No Email " means just what it says -- no emails will be sent to you, and you will have to read each message on the website's " Messages " page. ----------------------- > Hi All, > > just for now I need to stop all of this email bombarding me - this group > has been extremely helpful, but I need to move on.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hi ; I have SD and the generic worked just beautifully for me.I live in Canada and we still have the Weth brand here.I hear it was sold to Triax in the States.Steifel is also a good brand.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 , The paragraphs below are from one of my 2002 postings. Since that time, there has been little feedback from our group. It appears that all generic minocyclines are not the same when it comes to RA, but most of the time people who are taking a generic drug do not know its manufacturer. " The question of which generic brands of generic minocycline work for RA keeps coming up in our group, but there have been more questions than answers. A number of people have shared that they had to go back to brand-name Minocin because " the generic " did not work for them -- but without providing the name of the manufacturer. A problem is that brand-name Minocin is 4 1/2 time mores expensive than the generics. I hereby volunteer to maintain the web page www.tmgp.com/generic-mino.htm page to summarizes feedback on the efficacity of generic minocyclines for RA. To share your experience, please send your feedback to rheumatic . Please do this now, even if you have already sent this information to the group in the past. Be sure to include the manufacturer of the generic that you have taken or are now taking. If you do not already know this information, please ask your druggist. In August 2000, Dr. Mercola wrote, " Clinical experience has shown that many patients will relapse when they switch from the brand name to the generic. Clinically it has been documented that it is important to take Lederle brand Minocin. Most all generic minocycline is clearly not as effective. A large percentage of patients will not respond at all or not do as well with generic non-Lederle minocycline. " Please see http://www.mercola.com/2000/aug/27/Rheumatoid Arthritis.htm There are a number of manufacturers of generic minocycline, and the same drugstore may be carrying different manufacturers. If you do not specify a manufacturer, the druggist will pull the generic of his/her choice. Independent drugstores, as opposed to chain drugstores, may be able obtain the generic from specific manufacturer upon request. Also, different drugstores will charge differently for the same drug. I found that my local independent drugstore was willing to match Wal-Mart's pricing. " *** The pelleted Minocin was developed by Lederle Labs, which became ESI Lederle, which was acquired by Wyeth-Ayerst Laboratories, which then changed its name to simply to Wyeth. Minocin by Lederle, ESI Lederle and Wyeth were all the same thing. In early 2006, Wyeth sold its Minocin product line to Triax Pharmaceuticals. Hopefully brand name Minocin will remain what it has always been.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 It is a result of hyper activity of the spleen...so anything that causes an unusually high amount of red blood cell destruction will lead to enlargement. Anemia is a good example of that. Is it something your doc will try to control, or has removal been suggested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 Shrugged his shoulders???? Are you kidding me???? Time for a new doctor first and foremost.... Don't allow yourself to be treated that way. Are you in a position to seek a second opinion? I would start there. You need to know exactly what function of your spleen is compromised. so sorry for your experience.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 , Depression is one of the common symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis along with joint stiffness and fatigue. It is likely that after two months on the AP, you experiencing a Herxheimer reaction, during which RA symptoms will actually be worse. The good news is that the Herxheimer reaction is only temporary and is a good thing, proving that the AP is working. After another couple of months, you should start getting better and better. So cheer up! Sincerely, Harald At 06:00 PM 6/28/2006, you wrote: >Has anyone experienced depression, i mean really bad, when starting >the AP?

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 Vit C helped us with this problem. HELP!!!! I am brand new to this group. My son has been consitpated most of his young life (he is 4 and a half now). He has been on and off Miralax, Kondremul, and senna drops. Nothing seems to help. I have been to two GI specialists. One told me it is a result of functional stool holding. Since they associate bowel movements with pain they tend to hold their stools in. This just aggravates the problams. I am ready to try anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 ...my daughter has suffered with chronic constipation since infancy as well (she is now almost 6). You should join the group " Miralax " - it is all people who have children with chronic constipation that are trying to (or have succeeded) in getting their kids off Miralax. It is a wealth of info. I recently got my daughter off Miralax after being on it for 5+ years. We've done it mostly with the addition of Natural Calm (a magnesium citrate product). Mind you, we also have had her on vitamin/mineral supplementation, probiotics, anti-fungals (for yeast), essential fatty acids, and enzymes for a while (at least 4 months for most of those) because she is ASD, so they may (likely) have contributed to our success using Natural Calm. From memory, others on the Miralax group have used Vitamin C, Fruit-Eze, PlumSmart juice (made by Sunsweet and in your grocery store), and KidLax. I haven't used any of those so can't give you advice on them, but I can say that others have reported great success. The Miralax group has been as helpful to me as this Enzymes and Autism group. Good luck and feel free to email me with more questions, Carol > > I am brand new to this group. My son has been consitpated most of his > young life (he is 4 and a half now).

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 > > I went through the same thing with both of my children. My son ended up with encopresis (a leakage of stool and accidents due to muscle damage). When he is constipated now, I give him Magnesium Citrate which is a powder that you mix in water or juice. It tastes citrusy. Also give Vitamin C every day (can give up to bowel tolerance). We also made both my kids do their " 10 minutes " in which they sat on the tiolet for that amount of time and read a book, hoping to train their bowels. Don't have them push or anything straining, but sometimes just the act of sitting in that position leads to going. Hope this helps. Amy > > > I am brand new to this group.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Just wanted to jump in and say that we see a chiropractor also and it has helped tremendously in terms of helping the immune system and also helping to calm both of my children now ages 4 and 6. We started a couple of months before my daughter turned 3 years old. Now we get adjusted once every 2 weeks.I would highly recommend it based on my experience. ) Ginger P.s. I started going soon after my children and found out that I had scoliosis. It helps with that also. MHO </HTML> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Hello, For us, our saving grace was taking our son to see a holistic chiropractor, that practices " Hole-In-One " method on cervical spine. It is possible that your son has a pinched spinal cord and this is causing his onset of behaviors. When pinched, it causes a tightness in the brain, sensory issues are noted, quick tempers, seizure-like staring behavior, slowed auditory processing... these are all things I notice get better when my sons spinal is straightened. Our kids bump and fall so often, a bad fall could have caused a change in his spine. It happens alot with my 2 boys - age 3 and 6. Also, we do Cranial Sacral Therapy, with an excellent, experienced therapist. This CST has helped my 6 year old no longer be dysgraphic, because now he writes insead of staring off to the ceiling. And my other son stopped his staring spells after seeing both doctors. You should learn more about the spine and what it means to be out of line. Alot of these autistic symptoms are eased or go away upon correction. These are inexpensive alternates that cannot hurt to try. The chiro is a $40 visit, and the CST is $25. Not much money for something, that for us, has shown to be more effective and lasting then any amount of Speech and OT that we've done. For anyone who'd like further explanations about our experience, e-mail me. Also, I live in Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 There is a good chance she is still sick. Amoxicillin did absolutely nothing for me. I ended up taking three rounds of IV antibiotics later, none of it cured me. The only thing that helps me somewhat is the Buhner herbs etc. maybe you can follow up with herbal meds. Did you read the Buhner book? You can tailor the herbs to the actual symptoms. if you have not read it yet I would highly recommend it.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Why did your doc prescribe amoxicillin? I though doxycycline is the most widely prescribed/accepted treatment. I think I would ask for a month of doxy to be conservative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
