Avatar n tn Hope the statement, " Time heals all wound." is a true one. I guess a person should be more patient and allow more time before thoughts of the worse case scenario creeps into one's mind. I have a company as well and yesterday I had to meet with a bunch of clients. They were certainly polite, but you could'nt help but notice their shock when they heard my raspy attempt at speech. I've started using my blackberry a whole lot more to communicate.
Avatar m tn Then there is the mechanical part of communicating our language and that is speech. Problems with speech can include just trying to get the words out, pronouncing the words, the tonal quality of our speech, using emphasis and inflection. Problems with speech can be from weakness or spasticity of the muscles of our mouths, throats and vocal cords. Or it can be with the way our brain tries to direct the speech.
Avatar m tn s thyroiditis have tongue issues that has/had an impact on your speech? I have the scalloped appearance to my tongue, a swollen feeling near the back and underneath the tongue which affects my speech. Did the thyroid meds fix the problem and if so, how long did it take?
Avatar f tn Second, he should be observed by a behavioral health specialist at school in order to clarify the nature of his reactions and how to intervene beyond the time out response. Third, he should undergo a comprehensive Speech/Language evaluation.
Avatar m tn The parts of brain mostly affected in NPH, are those that affect the legs, bladder and cognitive mental processes like memory, reasoning, speech and problem solving.

Avatar m tn I found those chills to be awful, what I do is get my work-out clothes on & like it or not, I go for a walk & trust me when I say, ITS COLD OUTSIDE! But I do it anyway, as it relieves my anxiety & warms me up, this for me is one of my lifesaving remedys in my methadone detox, laying around is not the best thing for me, so no matter how bad I feel, I get up & start moving, it helps.

1061306 tn?1254664568 I have to laugh at myself... and am very open with others in regards to my mental issues. Don't hide it well anyway, poker face has never been a talent of mine. Laughing is the best medicine. (if you can muster it up). I don't get too defensive when others poke fun... more so when they don't take it seriously. THAT is frustrating and does make it difficult to fnd humor in my situation. I always say, "self-deprecating humor is only funny when I use it".
Avatar f tn The first amendment was specifically designed to protect speech that people might find offensive as well as everyday speech. Regardless what is considered outside of the boundaries of free speech is defined within the United States not through terrorist groups.

Avatar n tn There is prominent ventral impression on the thecal sac centrally and to the left of c6-c7 related to a combination of spur and disc. Predominant pathology is osseous. There is a spinal stenosis with canal measuring 9.8 mm at c6-c7. The canal also shows narrowing at c4-c5 secondary to spurring. The canal measures 9.8 mm at this level. There is a narrowing of the canal to the left at c3-c4 secondary to large spur with canal measuring 9.5 mm. Minimal cord flattening on the left at c4-c5.
Avatar n tn My 5 year old son is in Kindergarten and loves it. Academically, he is doing fine. However, he has a lot of problems with maturity. He tends to be extremely silly and goofy almost all the time and has trouble being serious. We've emphasized to him that there is a time and a place for silly behavior (not school) but it doesn't seem to be sinking in. I've noticed his silly behavior is worse when he's tired, so we try to make sure he gets to bed early.
Avatar f tn So, around this time last year I experienced tingling in my left hand that lasted for a few days, coupled with extreme fatigue. Days later, I developed nystagmus only upon waking that lasted for about 10 minutes or so. That eventually went away after about a month. About six months later I had a severe headache that migrated to my right eye and lasted for over a week. Went to an optometrist, no optic neuritis.
Avatar f tn Pathology report shows infiltrating mammary carcinoma, no special type, low combined histologic grade, Low proliferative rate with apocrine cytology, measuring at least 6MM in greatest extent (best measrued on P63 IHC Slide) Calponin and P63 show absence of myoepithelial cells int he neoplastic tubules, consistent with an invasive interpretation. Immunohistochemical studies for estrogen receptor and progesteron receptor are negative. My questions: No special type? What does that mean?
Avatar f tn You can still request that your slides be read by another Pathology Lab. If you aren't seeing a Breast Specialist I suggest that you do so and this might help clear things up for you. I'm sure you are more than aggravated at how things have gone in the past. I'm not sure why the ADH wouldn't show up on Excisional Biopsy unless the area was so small that it was removed by the previous needle procedure/ OR/ the Excisional Biopsy did not include the area of ADH.
Avatar f tn t seen that as a test for dysphagia in any MS forum. It seems more relevant to get a barium swallow or speech pathology assessment. I've had so many tests lately, and spent so much time at the clinic, that I'd like to avoid this if it's not necessary. Any thoughts?
Avatar f tn Hi Rayyu. I am not a specialist but parent of a child with mild ASD in question - possibility of a mood disorder/ADHD combination. My son makes good eye-contact, communicates failry well, follows instructions very well, friendly with everybody in general, akward with peers, lot better with older and younger children.

Avatar n tn Please consult doctor or get the X ray cervical spine done to rule out cervical pathology. Avoid thick pillows too and also get your blood pressure checked.
