Welcome Corlee,

I hope the remicade and mtx are working well for you. The water

arobics should help you so much. It seems like with RA, fibro comes

along with it, I have both also. I take humira and mtx for my RA. I

take neurontin for neuropathy pain in my leg. I've heard it helps

fibro, so if it does, I'm lucky. I do still have lots of tissue

pain, along with the joint pain. Where do you live, if I may ask? I

live in OK, and are winters are fairly mild here, but we have big

time humidity in the summer, and it isn't easy. It is hard for me to

travel, just the moving of the vehicle causes me great pain. But,

with lots of stops, and able to sleep, might help you get through

it. You take care, and hope you enjoy the group, Tawny

welcome !

How did the testing go? He sounds very similar to my ds who is now 12 yo, hfa. He has hyperlexia and is also gifted. Each "label" adds and subtracts from the mix.

RoxannaYou're UniqueJust like everyone else...

( ) New

My name is , I live in AL. My granson is believed to have the low form of autism, he will be tested Sept. 8. He was 2 in June. He has speech delay, some temper issues,lines up his toys, but what is really confusing me is he never did this thing of lining up his toys until the last 5-6 months. He can count to 11 and has been able to for along time now, he can say his A,B,C's, matches colors and the numbers and shapes.My daughter wants to try changing his diet and see if this helps. Anyone have any recipes or other advice. Hes such a sweet boy. Thank-you. No virus found in this incoming message.

Carolyn:

I read your message and had your e-mail sent to me through the .

I live in S.W. Wisconsin now. I have two children. An ADHD/PDD-NOS/Aspie

boy of almost 15. Diagnosed in 3rd grade, I had to take matters into my own

hands. I had to pull him out of school because of the lack of cooperation

in many schools in this area. (I'm originally from WA state - Western

U.S.A.) I am in need of knowing if you home school. I have many questions

for anyone who home schools special needs BOYS in particular. My other son

I pulled out of school because his dyslexia was not diagnosed and the public

school would not diagnose because, " they did not get paid to be doctors no

get paid to test. " The comment of " Oh he will grow out of it and he'll be

fine " did not improve my opinion of why he was failing in

reading/spelling/hearing and understand vowel/consonant blends. He is 12

with dyslexia/anxiety/depression disorder. So my kids are also some times

lonely. Any recommendations on curriculum? Any idea's on how to handle

when they have melt downs? I have all the literature I read on a daily

basis. I even attended a seminar given by Tony Attwood here in WI. He is

the expert out of Australia and knows and speaks with groups of

teachers-parents-Para/educators on these issues. Any and all suggestions

would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance to any comments you

could give. A. Sterland - ssterland@...

Does he get therapy for the dyslexia? Or do you do any specific training/teaching for dyslexia?

Dear Roxanne:

Thank you so much for writing back. Okay, he does not get any help for dyslexia. The schools would not do it because they can't get funding for it. I asked our primary care physician and she said most insurance companies won't cover it because it needs to be diagnosed by the dyslexia experts. The doctor's don't diagnose unless you go to a specialist and PAY OUT OF POCKET which is hundreds of dollars I don't have. So the vicious circle continues. I now home school at a slower pace. I know I am very fortunate to be able to stay home we/my sons. One thing I tried was to use a "box" when he reads. No, not one that is over him. Take a little piece of paper that has a box cut out of it. Have your child either read one sentence through the box at a time. The "Box" can either be small one word at a time, or a whole sentence. I ask him what he sees. He says the word gets "real fuzzy mom and the letters go out of focus." The word "saw" is now "was". The word "dad" becomes "bab." Switch, switch, switch, 3's are backwards, 9's are 6's. Times and plus signs get mixed. So, I slow will go over the times and plus signs with a red pen, or black high lighter pen, or just write, "this is a plus problem, this is a multiplication problem." Yes, he does have glasses, but his stigmatism is so very slight I think the doctor gave him a prescription so he can "be smart with his glasses."

The school is lying to you. They do get funding for reading help plus, the No Child Left Behind law has serious language for forcing schools to find kids who are having reading problems and help them learn to read. They get funding through what is called "Title 1" and this pays for tutors to help kids who are not reading at grade level. If he was far enough behind, he could get an IEP and special ed help for dyslexia.

I feel so bad when I read your post because our school actually does a great job with this. My youngest has dyslexia and before I could go in and ask for help, they had already pegged him for Title 1 program. In that program, they use Orton Gillingham methodology, which is one of the best methods to use with dyslexic readers. He made great progress. Also, my school offers "Fast Forword" as well and my ds has been in it for a while. It is an expensive program that we couldn't afford if we had to pay privately. But the school buys it and provides it to kids who need the extra help. I wish all schools were this way. But sadly, I know a lot of schools have the attitude you descibe in your email.

When my older ds (also dyslexic) was younger, I couldn't get them to remediate his "reading problem." I asked if it was dyslexia and got told all the things they tell parents - it can't be dx'd until 3rd grade, he can't have it because he doesn't always write backwards, we don't dx dyslexia - it's a medical dx and only a doctor can do that, blah blah blah. Needless to say, he never rec'd the help he needed. I was begging years ago for the school to provide Fast Forword and back then they told me it was not "scientifically proven" - only to decide it was a few years later. Imagine my face when I saw them vote to provide Fast Forword after spending years begging for just that! But it was too late for my older ds. At his last Evaluation, we requested an "IEE" (independent educational evaluation) and I also got the best book on Dyslexia I could find. (Read anything by Sally Shaywitz) I read that book during a one week vacation we took and came back prepared to get him the help he needed. I realized at the meeting that I knew more about dyslexia than anyone else in that room. They still wanted to not admit he even had it but I was able to show them every score that fit the exact profile of dyslexia and answer all their complaints with answers/explanations. Anyway, he is now a "compensated" dyslexic. He's learned to manage on his own. It's slow but good enough to get by.

Maybe you could buy a book or a program so you could teach him better reading skills? The box is a great idea, especially if the words are moving around!

Have you considered e-schooling? We do this now with my 12 yo (hfa, gifted, hyperlexia). He still has an IEP and gets his speech therapy provided by the school, as well. But he schools here at home with me. All his lessons are online. They tell us what to do each day and we do all the subjects. He has e-classes online too a few times per week. A real teacher teaches classes online in a virtual classroom. But I was also thinking about finding a reading tutor or program that would help remediate the dyslexia too. I just googled and found this -->

http://verticylearning.org/?gclid=CPGQrNT8yZYCFQVfFQodqSReyg

I don't know if it's any good but it was the first one up on the list. lol. It can give you an idea of what I mean. Maybe search around online and find out what is available in your state? You could still homeschool but also get help. They provide the curriculum and if you need help, you can call them or email them.

Here is a link to a page with a listing of some e-schools for your state --> http://distancelearn.about.com/od/onlinepublicschools/a/WisconsinPublic.htm

E-schools are the same as public schools and they would be required to do an evaluation of your ds and see if he qualifies for special education. Then if he did, he could get tutoring or therapy for dyslexia provided without cost to you (except you'd have to transport him to the therapy.) Just an idea to think about.

Have you been to Dr. G's website yet? www.neuroimmunedr.com

I would recommend that you start there and then post any questions you may have

on the board. The group is really supportive and very informed about the

protocol. My three sons and I are all on the protocol and we're seeing lots of

improvement.

All the best,

Robyn

Last year, I started out with the diet first to see if my son

would benefit. He did so well that as soon as I could I took my son to

see Dr. G. I live in the South so it was a big deal to have my son be

seen by him, but well worth it. I learned so much and I feel my son is

going more in the right direction than every before. My son has always

been delayed in speech and was diagnosed with Aspergers. He is now 8,

but he is only in 1st grade. However, he is doing well in school and I

am hopeful that he will graduate high school and college.

Thank you,

Freda

Hi,

I think that you daughter is very smart and she will be very successful if you guide her computers skills positively

I am an IT person and addicted to computers also . I love computers and game, my

children love them too.

..

I watch the news in my pc, I socialized in my pc, I do my banking in my pc,

etc.

In the computer world everybody belongs to the same race, everybody wears the

same clothing. Nobody call you “weirdâ€. People accept you the way you are…

I express myself better using a pc

because I am not afraid of the possibility of people disliking me because of my

look or color.

I introduced my children to the computer world and now they are addicted to

games, computers, phone, etc.

My son is 22 and when we see each other we play games together, sometimes we

search web sites to learn how to play the guitar and also we watch movies in

our pc.

Using the pc my son learned to play the guitar; I learned how to program in VB

and how to set up my web page for my business and how to run an internet

business.

Using the pc my daughter learned math and to play the clarinet.

Using the pc I met the most wonderful friend I have in my life.

Using the pc I keep contact with my family from Dominican

Republic.

I buy games for my daughter, playing those games she had learned to dance, to

be patience and to do well in math...

I do not see anything wrong with using a pc or playing games all the time.

The bad aspect is the social effects that computers could cause in some people,

but in my situation I have not time to be social.

My aspergers girl

sooths herself playing computers games.

When she plays a game she abstracts herself and travel to a place where

she is accepted as she is, where being “weird†is acceptable and sometimes “coolâ€.

I also always keep track and monitor the web sites she goes

to and she is well train on internet securities.

( ) NewHello Everyone!My daughter, , is 13 years old and has Asperger Syndrome. I joined on-line support groups a long time ago, but life got busy and I know longer stayed joined. I have been having a lot of hard times lately, trying to figure out what is best for my daughter, and I constantly find myself at a loss. She is addicted to the computer, has no friends, and wants to do nothing but play on her computer. I'm worried, I want her to go and do things and spend time with me and our family. She is the only child, I am divorced and she doesn't see her father. We have a small family and most of them are not very supportive. I have a wonderful boyfriend who treats her wonderfully. But I am at a loss on what to do to fill her time so she isn't on the computer as much. Any help would be greatly appreciated.I am really looking forward to being back on this support group!

Hello - I am new, and newly dx'd (two days ago). I am 54, have had chronic

fatigue syndrome since '93, and am on disability for cognitive issues that I

believe are related to the CFS. I'm frustrated that it took this long to dx

me; it took me changing PCPs, and one app't with this new doctor, an

osteopath, got me the blood tests to show high inflammation and a dx of RA.

I forgot to ask about the ANA panel results..

Right now, pain control is my focus; I'm using Tylenol and Lodine

(etodolac). The Lodine is new, and is still kind of iffy as far as my

stomach goes, so I can't take it regularly enough for good pain control.

And, oh joy, unfortunately I am highly sensitive to most medications.

Anyway, I know very little about RA and I have an app't with a

rheumatologist in March. I don't know what to expect or what to ask. I'm

leery of specialists; I hear too many horror stories.

So I'm looking forward to reading posts and learning.

Hello Pat:  Welcome to our very special group of caring people.  You will

learn so much here about RA and what an ugly beast of a disease it is.  I am

70, and have had RA for almost 6 years.  The best thing I did for myself was

join this group.  I have learned so much about RA, and it changed my life

outlook.  The caring, support, information, and love you get here is truly

amazing.  The best of the best is here.  You can cry, vent, etc. here as

everyone knows exactly what you are dealing with on a 24/7 daily basis.

 

I am glad you will see your Rheumy next month.  That is the best thing to do

right away so they can start you on the meds. quickly.  Plus, you need to get

some pain meds. that work well for you.  They make a big difference with what

you can and can't do each day.  My advice is to rest as much as you can.  RA

is relentless and truly wears us out.

 

I hope you feel better soon.  Again, welcome again.

 

Hugs,

 

Barbara

have had RA for almost 6 years. The best thing I did for myself was join this

group. I have learned so much about RA, and it changed my life outlook. The

caring, support, information, and love you get here is truly amazing. The best

of the best is here. You can cry, vent, etc. here as everyone knows exactly

what you are dealing with on a 24/7 daily basis.

I am glad you will see your Rheumy next month. That is the best thing to do

right away so they can start you on the meds. quickly. Plus, you need to get

some pain meds. that work well for you. They make a big difference with what

you can and can't do each day. My advice is to rest as much as you can. RA is

relentless and truly wears us out.

I hope you feel better soon. Again, welcome again.

Hugs,

Barbara

Hi Dawn, that's a tough one. The very good probios are on the pricey side.

Not as bad, try sedona labs i-flora. There are many out there, and the group

will come in with all kinds of suggestions. The two best I use are pricey,

so if you change your mind, I will be happy to share that info.
