Guest guest Posted January 8, 2002 Report Share Posted January 8, 2002 Hi Everyone I have an electric toothbrush for which sometimes he fights when I use it. Has anyone got this problem. had constant ear infections from 4 months to two years old, I mean fortnightly infections no glue ear apparently, so at two with only about 5 words I said I wanted him to have grommets. The specialist who inserted them said that had he not had the anesthetic he would not have performed the operation as there was so much pus in his ear he could not see where to insert the grommet but once it drained he completed the operation. No more infections since four years and no problem. Or so it seems. No language and a fear of swings being picked up and swung around. So once he ended up in privated physio and OT he was paranoid of the hammock but overcame that in nine months of therapy. We stopped private therapy and he had SES help. Ok we think we don't get any reports and the physio is never at IEP meetings. Anyway not to moan yesterday at the physio he was scared of lying on his tummy on a giant ball and being rolled. And as I said being slightly elevated off the ground. He still doesn't like swings but the paediatrician said that as he can't make talk and has initiated physio there is no more he can do for him so has an appointment in Sept. I thought maybe just maybe that he has a middle ear problem or is this behaviour common for apraxic children. I look forward to anyone elses experiences. See ya.
