Avatar n tn The Training is not regarded as a substitute for medication, but it can be a useful addition to treatment and a useful non-pharmacological approach for children who display problems with working memory (with or without a diagnosis of ADHD).
Avatar f tn I think it is really important to have the plan written by someone with significant experience in using applied behavior analysis with children with autism (you can search for board certified behavior analysts in your region at www.bacb.com). It is really crucial that the behavior intervention plan matches the reason your son is acting out. For example, some children act out when they are given difficult wotrk to do.
Avatar n tn How about you try food supplements that have shown to have equal efficacy to Ritalin,Multiple vitimin with B Complex and Vit C . also Fish oil and been tried by many parents,with success, go into your local whole food store,if you have one called "Sprouts "they are very good and will go online for you to find what you need in a Natural Remedy to help you.If the drugs you have been trying dont work its time to find something less invasive that will, Good Luck.

Avatar f tn My 11 year old son has the following symtoms after a streptosyme infection found in his blood in Nov 2008, and after taking methylin for 5 days in Dec 2008. Could this be related to dystonia and why? 1. frequent blinking 2. painful finger cramping 3. stress induced twitches in left side extremities 4. involuntary movements/jerks in left side extremities 5. muscle stiffness and jerks in left arm, hand, fingers, leg, foot, and toes when trying to relax 6.
Avatar f tn As a side note per your original post.....Methylin IS the Generic for Ritalin which someone else had suggested. They are one in the same. As I said, I have also tried that...but to No avail! Good Luck to all of us who have to constantly fight the renlentless Fatigue Monster!
Avatar n tn She said to increase his dose from 2 ml to 4ml I did this and it seemed to last for 8-9 hours for the past month. Just the past few days though, it seems to last only 6 again. Today, I gave it at 8am and by 2pm he was jumping off the walls. I also stopped the OJ in the morning so not sure if that helped at all. His doctor said that taking Vyvance would be the next step because it could be more long lasting.
556935 tn?1215720270 25 mg of Xanax. Everything we have read says that it has not been evaluated for safety and effectiveness in children and is not generally prescribed for them. What we need to know is, is it ok for her to take them? Should we take her to see another Doctor and have something else given to her or should my husband speak to her counselor about the supposed symptoms, since they aren't something that we have ever encountered when she has been with us? Please give us some advice.
Avatar n tn The doctor said that because his prescription is so severe, he wants him to wear the glasses all the time and to cover his good eye with a patch for 8 hours a day for a year and half at least, which it bothers him tremendously. Any other suggestion in this matter? How do I get my son to wear the patch? and do you think it is too early for an astigmatism to be detected? Will his vision benefit from the glasses and the patch? Any advice on how to get him used to them?
Avatar n tn I must add that she is currently on medication for ADHD. She sees a couselor every few months, without any benefits , that I can tell. She is a lovely, respectful child. My brother is at his wits end. What can you advise?.
Avatar f tn Sed rate for children should be less than 10. It is a marker for inflammation. My child had an elevated sed rate and foot problems that led us to find out that she has Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis. There are also other things that cause an elevated SED rate.
Avatar m tn m just wondering what are the main reason why some woman have many children?My mother has 7 children and she seems overworked and tired but she does'nt seem to show an regret at all.Is it related to educational level or childhood experience?My mother started work in a textile facotry when she was just 13 and stopped her formal education then.She also said she was teased in school and felt lonely. kind regards.

Avatar n tn I think that is probably the most damaging stage of grief for children. As adults, we understand that anger is part of the process, but a child can become emotionally crippled because they can't understand how they can be so angry, even feel hatred, towards someone they love so much. I'm sure his mother is trying her best to comfort him, but I know how difficult it is when you're in so much pain yourself.
Avatar n tn but i understand your predicament when it comes to the family all reason and logic will not convince you, A test will be comforting wait for 28 days for a DUO test or Do a PCR test now this will be conclusive and destress you.
Avatar m tn hello. i have known this forum for long time, it helped my friend once, but this is the first time i have to ask. my question is weird. but i am anxious when it comes to my child so please help. the only thing i am really curious is,if the imune system of small children is less strong and they can catch hiv more easily (or this is negligible). my 4yrs old son loves to meet a friend of mine, who is just great friend but her sexual life is not always "safe".
Avatar m tn my father is a paraniod schizophrenic, has been for years, he is on high alert for his violence, and been sectioned many times before. all drugs do not work, no more to try as he had them all. the one he is on just calms him a bit. he has abused my sister many years ago and beaten us. now we older we do not go near him for long. im the only one left talking to him, without me there would be no-one in his life, but i moved away from him, i have 11yr old daughter, and 18yr old autistic son...
