Guest guest Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 Neem, Yes, your absolutely right, some kids with tort don't use their tort affected side in some cases, that's why some have delays in milestones- but that is fantastic that he is rolling towards his tort side. Tort is not always an indication that the child will have delays in gross motor skills, or have problems using that side. My son was ahead of schedule for almost every milestone, sitting up at 5 months, crawling at 6 and walking at 10 mnths. He also did use his left side (his tort side), but there were times that it seemed he would prefer using the right. We did a lot of stuff with like the rocking back and forth as one example because I was very aware of the delays some kids have, and thought that we could prevent that if we worked on him early- so its good to know this and keep it in the back of your mind, in case you see him start preferencing the left (non-tort side) only. Having said that, I would also make sure that he is not rolling towards the tort side as an imbalance, where the shoulder and/or hip is tightly pulled up so that he is off kilter and rolling towards the side he's pulling up on, as a result. What got me started with the rocking was seeing trying to sit up, and then tip over to the left, like he didn't want to put that side down on the floor- so he would lose balance. So make sure that Siddharte is not rolling left by essentially pulling up that body and making him roll that way since that side won't be necessarily as level as the right side. You'll really have to watch him and assess for yourself if you think he is pulling up, or just doing what comes natural, rolling! It sounds like Siddharthe is doing very well, working with that tort side and using his arm and leg is still very important- so that is something to really celebrate! ! And your doing a great job in getting him there- keep up the great work Mom! Please do not hesitate to ask all the questions you need answers to, I was walking in your shoes a short time ago and know the anxiety that your feeling- so I'm all ears! Your doing a great job, keep up the good work! ' Mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Is it okay to mix a Revia 50mg with purified water to get the desired dose (drink 4.5). Is it mg to ml (1 to 1). Will it last, can it be frozen? >From: " Bou " <lswillia@...> >Reply-low dose naltrexone ><low dose naltrexone > >Subject: Re: [low dose naltrexone] Questions >Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2004 20:55:38 -0500 > >I don't think most muscle relaxants have an opioid basis.
