Avatar f tn “One of the underwriting guidelines we follow for schools is that any on-site armed security should be provided by uniformed, qualified law enforcement officers. Our guidelines have not recently changed.” Lovell’s company provided insurance to almost 90 percent of the state’s school districts before pulling its coverage. Two other companies, Continental Western Group and Wright Specialty Insurance, followed suit.

Avatar f tn I stand by what I said (and I can quote the public laws) that the federal government makes schools deal with children who have disabilities and they (only partially) pay the schools for the services. In fact, if the schools refuse to provide these services the parents can sue the schools for a lot of money. I LOVE your last paragraph.

627816 tn?1349238116 Given the problems with the apparent over use and abuse of restraint and seclusion which have been emerging over the past few years in schools across the country, more strict and uniform policy requirements for schools on these topics may be needed. More data about and attention to how these procedures are used is certainly warranted.
Avatar f tn If this is the first time, have her checked by your doctor for proper management. Here are some general guidelines that we need to know when another seizure occurs: stay calm and don't move her to another place. Don't try to keep her from moving or shaking and don't try to wake her by shouting at or shaking. Take away items that could cause injury and gently turn her to her side so any fluid in the mouth can safely come out.
Avatar m tn adam - while I know this is scary for you, try not to get ahead of yourself. I drank regularly and heavily for several years, and now I am facing medical issues likely resulting from it. My point is that you don't want to be where I am. I know you are young and your buddies likely drink a good bit too, but your health really is most important. Yes, heavy drinking damages the liver.

Avatar f tn Took him to vet with three possibilities, seizure, brain tumor, or spinal cord problems. Vet prescribed prednisone and a muscle relaxer, and a steroid shot. The attacks have increase and meds seem not to be working some loss of bladder control. Appetite is good. We've had a second visit to the vet he doesn't recommend x Rays. Help we are lost.
377493 tn?1356502149 Granted in Canada it may not be as huge an age difference. But in the states, most schools say you must be 5 somewhere between Sept and Nov. - and for good reason. You can easily google starting ages and find out exactly what it is for our schools. I see no problem with him doing the 1/2 day program. The following year I would put him in a full day program at the same grade level - that way some things will be new to him.
704609 tn?1228738656 Thanks for the suggestion. What would you like to track in your seizure tracker? The more specific information we have, the easier it will be to create a tracker that meets your needs.
642877 tn?1281799282 I am a 48 year old man and I'm wondering how many mets I should be able to maintain for 30 minutes if I'm in average shape. I would also like to know how to calculate the answer.
Avatar m tn I went for an HIV test 2 days after my risk, i was wondering if the rapid HIV test i took is accurate because my results came back negative or i should take the EIA test?
Avatar n tn Some seizures can cause damage to the brain, hyperthermia (which can effect all organs of the body), can cause additional trauma, can cause cardiovascular abnormalities (abnormal heart function). If the seizure is due to an insulinoma, for example, the hypoglycemia that the insulinoma causes can be life threatening, if untreated. Since your dog did not lost consciousness or seize, her epilepsy may not cause her any problems.
Avatar f tn I don't think you are off your rocker. I think you have a lot going on and happening for both of you.Now take a deep breath . a lot of Children are being diagnosed as being add or adhd and even Autism these days. The best thing I can tell you is to please get him in to see a Neurologist and have them do some test ,like blood test to check all his blood levels and other things to make sure everything is normal and also do a EEG .
Avatar m tn I am trying to get something in writing to show that this decision does not follow within the accepted guidelines for treatment of his form of Hepititis. I believe the Dr. in Az. may have made this decision not realizing he did not have a 12 week blood sample. My son is 43 years old and in otherwise good health. He has not had any symptoms of Hep C nor has he had any side effects from the treatments.
Avatar f tn There are many people on Thyroid Chat that say that the ACCE guidelines that state subclinical would be TSH over 10 with normal t/3 t/4 or TSH 5-10 with normal t/3 t/4 and goiter or antibody are outdated and todays guidelines say that TSH should be at 1 or at least below 3 EVEN with normal t/3 t/4.
10485665 tn?1411740029 It varies for everyone so there really is no guideline. It depends on genes, your activity level, the food you eat. For me, I gain little to no weight during pregnancy...It's the year after the baby comes out that I pack on 30lbs from breastfeeding (breastfeeding doesn't always make you lose weight). Talk to your doctor about it, but don't stress. Eat healthy, exercise moderately, but don't worry about the weight. It will come off after baby is born!
Avatar f tn My son is 7 and has an IEP for reading and language.The school also believes he has Ashburgers.( we have an appointment for testing comming up) Well at a meeting the other day with the school, the Special Ed Department Head told me they are concerned for my son because he is not progressing. ANd he also is not retaining any information that they give him. They say he zones out, His eyes roll up in his head not all the way back but just up. then his eyes dart around and look glassed over.
148588 tn?1465778809 Hmmmm that one certainly would make us all agree that we need to have some turnover in D.C wouldn't it? Maybe we could start by getting the lobbyists out, then look at whatever members of Congress have been voting for this monstrosity and make sure they don't get re-upped as well.
535822 tn?1443976780 I would call the school principal with any names of bullies and specific examples (any proof via the cyber world as well). If they have a zero tolerance policy regarding students standing up for themselves, then they must have disciplinary measures to handle it. That might not make the problem go away, so I would contact their parents. I'd make a LOT of noise about it. But knowing how to stand up to bullies is important.
1530342 tn?1405016490 Abducted Teenage Girl Rescued by Teenagers on Bicycles Stephen Brock, a professor of school psychology and president-elect of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), says the controversy highlights the importance of schools having protocols in place for how to pay tribute to the death of a student and other tragic events.
1116472 tn?1260075052 I am on Lamictal for my Bipolar, but i have also had a seizure. i know it is also a seizure med, and my bipolar issue is WAY more important. How much of the lamictal will be helping for my actual bipolar? I'm trying to understand, the doctor said it will treat both, but i need to be sure that the motivation was not for epilepsy, because that takes a backseat to bipolar, as i have only had a couple seizures, and am not diagnosed epileptic, and my MRI showed nothing of the sort.
Avatar m tn symptoms feeling sometimes, mine are related to migraines, but from what I understand it is somehow seizure related also. For me a key also is not so much searching for a cure as it is in preventing & avoiding things that trigger, set-off or contribute to the conditions. A condition that promotes migraine and/or deja vu for me is an ongoing lack of sleep followed by more than enough sleep. Within a day or two I will have a migraine or deja vu or both.
Avatar n tn I was diagnosed with H-pylori. I started a heavy antibiotic regimen for 21 days.Still had a few flare ups here and there. Now after about 4-6weeks later the symptoms are back. Spontanious nausea, stomach pain. Pepto usually would work but nothings working.Has the infection reoccured or do I have an ulcer?
