Guest guest Posted September 14, 2000 Report Share Posted September 14, 2000 Suzy Hang in there girl - I do believe the bursting out crying is not only from the treatment but it is stressful knowing that you are living with a chronic illness also. My husband had a terrible time dealing with it and was like you and very upset about that to then so like always I thank the antidepressants that have helped him so much. Stay positive!!!

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2001 Report Share Posted July 20, 2001 I was talking to someone at my son's speech therapy ( a mom) and she said that there is an apraxial nerve that runs from the brain the the mouth ( for oral motor) and that sometimes it can be damaged causing a misfire from brain to mouth functions. Sometimes this can happen at birth she said through a rough delivery. Did anyone else hear of this? or was anyone told that this may have been a cause to their child's speech apraxia problem? I never heard of it? Any answers? Kerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2001 Report Share Posted July 21, 2001 I would like to know about the various medications you parents have knowledge about. Is Proefa a brand name? Is Cormega? And am I to assume these both contain the Omega Essential Fatty Oils? And is Flaxseed oil the same, or different? And what is DHA? I have a daughter with Magenis Syndrome, who is 44. She cannot talk and no one has ever diagnosed this. Everything has always been blamed on mental retardation. We have learned to dissect every diagnosis because things are not always what they seem. We have been seeing something of late with Kim, that I find hard to even mention for fear it will go away.........and this is that she is hearing sounds......as before she could/would not, I often caught that she could distinguish a high pitch sound. In fact, when I want to get her attention as in warning of danger, I yell in high pitch very loudly, and it is enough to startle her to stop, look, listen. But only sometimes. Lately, there have been other things. Like when I am playing the CD player in my bedroom, and sometimes she wanders in to say something.......signing, gesturing, or whining, taking my hand, whatever it takes,,,,,,,then all of a sudden, she seems to notice the music and puts her hands over her ears. I am trying to watch this closer, as sometimes the light flickers on the stereo, or the cabinet door is left open, or other telltale signs. So, I am checking it out. She is very good with vibrating sounds, and I think stereos with speakers setting outside the cabinet, vibrate the floor or furniture. I, too, have a hearing impairment and I am always aware of others who are, also. Sometimes before they even realize it. When I first started to wear eyeglasses, even though Kim did too, she did not like my needing them. She knew, I think, that I was her ears, eyes, and voice, and she knew she depended on me to be sharp. It gave her some insecurity for a spell. But it led to my being able to teach her better care of her own glasses, as I let her learn to care for mine. Learning to lay them just right. Learning to clean them, and how sacred they are. Kim has no sense of the value of money$$$$. This Apraxia, and the other words with Apraxia in them, I am trying to determine their differences. I hate going in on the website and trying to pull up this area of interest and then waiting, and then the next, I just don't have the lifestyle required to do that.......please help me. I need a quick crash course. And I live in South-Central PA, so where and who can I turn to? has been on supplements for over 15 years. I will forward to the list, a rundown of such. We have seen many miracles revolving around the usage of magnesium, B6, and Calcium, especially. I will want to try her on the Omega Oils. So I need quick info. Kim also has diabetes, and do others who take this supplement? Sandy Tome in Pennsylvania, Mother of four, one diagnosed with -Magenis in 98. Thanx!

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 Sheila, 40 mgs. of CELEXA is equal to 20 mgs. of LEXAPRO. It's exactly twice. Ask your doctor or druggist. Skye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2003 Report Share Posted June 4, 2003 Taken from www.lexapro.com ... Lexapro's efficacy and tolerability have been demonstrated in clinical trials. The recommended dose of Lexapro is 10 mg daily, which was comparable in a clinical trial to the higher titrated dose of Celexa at 40 mg daily. Additionally, many patients taking Lexapro 10 mg per day demonstrated a significant improvement in depressive symptoms beginning after the first or second week of treatment. > >>Sheila > > Shells, that is! > > Skye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
