Guest guest Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Luz, My son would go through these painful screaming bouts as well. The first time it manifested our chiro told us to do cranial sacral therapy on him. The CS therapist thought that he might be going through a growth spurt and his cranial bones were not adjusting to it. This brought substantial relief within 2 weeks. Then we moved out of state and the new D.O. gave us Petadolex which relaxes blood vessels in the head. You can get this over the counter in health food stores. Note that it doesn’t heal the pain as it’s happening, but it works toward relaxing the vessels in order to not get the pain to begin with. If it is TMJ, I will send you a file I have on that separately. Hope this helps. Carmen Carmen F. Goldman, Esq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 I would also recommend having a dentist check her teeth and gums. It seems like something hurts when she bites and/or when she swallows. About seeing an ENT too? This was really hard to watch Subject: Re: this video is tough to watch- but I'd love your thoughtsTo: mb12 valtrex Date: Monday, November 23, 2009, 7:53 AM Poor thing, have you had her evaluated with a dentist? I remember reading of a mom who was having trouble getting her child off of a nipple off a bottle. The child would hold it in their mouth all day. Well, she came to learn that because of the child's poor nutrition because it was a horrible eater(like many of our kids), it's teeth were rotting out. Keeping the nipple in the child's mouth kept the air off the teeth when it breathed and the air would cause considerable pain. So it could be pain during eating or even at other times too. Does your daughter have a stuffed nose and then has to breath through her mouth? Have you looked into homeopathy? We are using Homeopathy Center of Houston and they have ways to get rid of the metals without it being so harsh on the system. Good luck to you, that video breaks my heart.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I agree. I had a good friend whose son with autism was having a major melt downs and even some behavioral problems. His mom took him to the dentist and a cap or something had come loose and his teeth were uneven and causing some MAJOR pain. He was nonverbal and couldn't tell her what was wrong. But the dentist fixed the problem and he is back to his happy self again. Dental issues can cause major pain.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I have a gut feeling that most of the nonverbal kids are experiencing seizures. Quite awhile ago when I was new on the Autism-Mercury board, I had asked the group about my son learning words and then forgetting them and then learning other words. I was frustrated because I thought my son was getting more language, but apparently, he was just getting different language. Andy Cutler suggested that he might be having seizures, and if you think about it, it makes sense. If you think about the inability of some children to say anything, it makes even more sense. You need a properly working memory - messages sent back and forth - to be able to learn to speak. I think it is related to demyelination and I think Vitamin A helps, but I am not sure why. > > I agree.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 OK-1. We see a dentist every four months- her teeth are in good shape, and so are her gums;2. Yes, have tried homeopathy-- mixed bag, not the one deep healing remedy yet-- what would you suggest?2. Ongoing NAETWhat I do wonder about is seizures and nerve inflammation; we're treating the inflammation with Enhansa though I'm checking on Bradstreet's findings-Thanks all. Luckily this is not what she's like most often... LuzLiz- If she has tooth pain, why would she bite her hands? Wouldn't that make it worse? I think it would be an easy thing to rule out.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Based on my experience last year,and the year before,with similar episodes.it is probably related to inflammation.Yes I was very weak,and sick,often with a high fever after these went away. The neuro I saw had no idea what they were.I had never heard of other people having such episodes before,but Martha Herbert touched upon it in her Mainne CDC lecture,and she was where I got the glial inflammation theory. Subject: RE: Re: this video is tough to watch- but I'd love your thoughtsTo: mb12 valtrex Date: Monday, November 23, 2009, 4:31 PM Our son has the same thing. We have been to regular doc, immunologist, DAN, allergist, ENT, and neurologist. It started off sporadic, one every month or two and then eventually we were up to 4 or so of these episodes a week. He would push right in the middle of his forhead with our hand or his as he screamed like someone was trying to kill him. It is heartbreaking. He would almost always end up vomiting and would be clammy and lethargic for a few hours afterwards. It's horrible and completely takes him out of commission for a while. This frequency went on for almost a year. We did find out he has partial complex seizures and he is now on Topomax to control seizure activity, but nothing had really helped with the episodes. Then all of a sudden I realized a few weeks into last summer that he had only had one since school had gotten out. We went the whole summer with only 2 episodes. Since school started back up in the fall, he gets about one a month. No one has any answers. At first the neuro. said they were related to his seizures and then he keeps changing his mind. I can relate, as we have watched my son go through one of these while trying to eat too. Nickie Re: Re: this video is tough to watch- but I'd love your thoughts Luz, How long has she been doing this?

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Luz, given that it takes some time for you to figure out exactly what is causing this, maybe it would be beneficial to visit an acupuncturist (not just anyone, someone who is highly recommended), to see if there are some pressure points you can use to relieve this pain when it happens. My son comes up to me and wants me to squeeze his index finger when he has had a food that he is intolerant of and it is causing pain. For some reason, it provides relief. So that is one suggestion. Also, you said she hasn't always done this. Think back to when it started, did it correspond to any new diet or supplement, the chelation? I think I would cut out the Enhansa at this point as well because phenols can cause bad reactions for some kids too - you don't want anything in her supplements or diet that will aggravate things or confuse your ability to figure this out. My son has lead too, BTW, and this started getting worse shortly after a DMSA challenge, so it could be lead moving around in the central nervous system too. Lots of antioxidants, magnesium, EFAs, and epsom salt baths would help if that were the case. Maybe selenium and Vit E too.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Yes Pamela From: mb12 valtrex [mailto:mb12 valtrex ] On Behalf Of Kulp Sent: Wednesday, November 25, 2009 2:16 PM To: mb12 valtrex Subject: Re: Re: this video is tough to watch- but I'd love your thoughts Somewhat OT,but would episodes of eloping with no idea where you are,and what you are doing,and then coming around hours later be seizure related ? Subject: Re: this video is tough to watch- but I'd love your thoughts To: mb12 valtrex Date: Tuesday, November 24, 2009, 6:54 PM I have a gut feeling that most of the nonverbal kids are experiencing seizures. Quite awhile ago when I was new on the Autism-Mercury board, I had asked the group about my son learning words and then forgetting them and then learning other words. I was frustrated because I thought my son was getting more language, but apparently, he was just getting different language. Andy Cutler suggested that he might be having seizures, and if you think about it, it makes sense. If you think about the inability of some children to say anything, it makes even more sense.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Luz-Glad to hear you can rule out a dental issue. As far as the homeopathy goes, I would try a sequential homeopath. We tried the classical route too and in my opinion it is too difficult to try and nail down one true remedy when there are so many things going on with our children. My son is non-verbal and that makes it even more difficult to get a true symptom picture. We are in our fourth month with Homeopathy center of Houston. What they do is work backward in your childs history clearing the assaults of vaccines, toxins, medications, etc. They address supporting detox and healing throughout as well. Currently for monthly support between clearings, we are on droppers for mito function, strep and ocd, yeast, detox, gut, thyroid, thymus, lymphatic drainage, bateria, viruses, etc, etc. They address quite a lot at one time. Hopefully next month we will start on something for parasites too. So far, we are only 4 months in, we have improved eye contact, a lot more social interaction, much improved potty training(he actually pees by himself now) less intense ocd behaviors, and for the very first time he can now blow a whistle and stick his tongue out, more imitation in general. We are very happy with the progress and we have only just begun. Houston is quite expensive but I know that there are other homeopaths out there that do a similar thing and probably aren't as expensive. Just something to look into. I'm wanting to get a hair test done on my son to see what all he is dumping sometime in the near future. Good luck to you. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > From: Darin and <odies4@> > > > > > Subject: Re: this video is tough to watch- but > > I'd love your thoughts > > > > > To: mb12 valtrex@ yahoogroups. com > > > > > Date: Monday, November 23, 2009, 7:53 AM > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >  > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Poor thing, have you had her evaluated with a dentist?

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I have no idea . I would guess that the answer is yes, in a way, because I believe issues with memory are due to scrambled messages in the brain (abnormal electrical activity). That's just my semi-educated opinion. > > > > I agree.
