Guest guest Posted February 6, 2002 Report Share Posted February 6, 2002 In a message dated 2/6/02 1:49:29 PM Central Standard Time, r I have subscribed to this list for years and usually just read. I have just spent 45 minutes trying to register on to get to the file that has doctor recommendations. Can someone please just mail them to me? Liz, if your reading this, I would more than appreciate it if you can just download this file and send it. I am still in NY and trying to work from a computer cafe and finding it much to frustrating spending a fortune trying to do a registration, Melinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 7, 2002 Report Share Posted February 7, 2002 It's on the way to you in another email. I am not sure....is this our " official " list that usually sends out? I don't remember there being so many docs from California on that one I got before. Let me know if you check some of the ones in the Bay Area, please, Melinda. Are you still hoping to see Dr. Franco?

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 Thank you for your reply , Colleen and Sherry. Your information is most helpful. I understand that what I saw wasn't Rock Salt . It was Sea Salt and it adds minerals to the skin and removes toxins. Epsom Salt helps sore muscels and Baking Soad is for oder and softens the skin. Thank you so much.

My son's Lamictal dosage: 50 mg/per day for weeks 1-2; 100 mg/per day for weeks 3-4; 200 mg/per day week 5 and then I guess we'll adjust according to how it works. I'm glad to hear that people who have tonic-clonics while going to or in their sleep " make it " through the night. I haven't been able to sleep very well, just worried. My son said he didn't know that his last seizure was happening until it was over. Maybe I could put a monitor (hesitate to say " baby " monitor) in his room so I could hear if " it " happens. Am I being overprotective? Thanks for your input and support. .. ..>>> Sounds like your son is quite stressed during the day, so that the big swing into the relaxation before sleep happens quite quickly, just something to think about. We have used tabletop FM intercoms left " on " in his room for at least twenty years to hear what was going in while Charlie slept. He, too, used to seize in his sleep. Why would you think you are over protective? mjh http://foxhillfarm.us/FireBasil/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had 4 seizures, beginning just before Christmas. He had one in December, one in July, and now 2 in August (1 week apart.) Initially, he had a CT scan, and had an EEG done (only 2- hour sleep deprived.) They both came back " normal. " I want more testing done. Can anyone tell me what I should request? I'm thinking: MRI, blood work to look for electrolytes out of balance, and I'm not sure what else, sleep deprived EEG, and maybe a sleep study with EEG? I just want to be sure that we rule out everything that " its " not! I would appreciate any and all input as to what I should insist upon as far as tests go. Thanks in advance for your advice and support. .. .. >>> Go to www.andrewsreiter.com and ask those questions there, too. mjh http://foxhillfarm.us/FireBasil/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 A good book on Magnesium is " The Miracle of Magnesium " written by an MD. Carolyn Dean. Many folks feel that Mg citrate or Mg glycinate are the best absorbed forms. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0345445880/qid=1093437726/sr=1-1 /ref=sr_1_1/103-5970536-0364654?v=glance & s=books mjh In a message dated 8/25/2004 7:41:46 AM Eastern Daylight Time, writes: Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2004 01:39:59 -0000 From: " zoe88025 " <Zll51@...> Subject: --tonic-clonic--Magnesium, seizures & autism--abstract 1: Magnes Trace Elem. 1991-92;10(2-4):287-301. Magnesium, stress and neuropsychiatric disorders. Galland L. Great Smokies Diagnostic Laboratory, Asheville, N.C. Magnesium has a profound effect on neural excitability; the most characteristic signs and symptoms of Mg deficiency are produced by neural and neuromuscular hyperexcitability. These create a constellation of clinical findings termed tetany syndrome (TS). TS symptoms include muscle spasms, cramps and hyperarousal, hyperventilation and asthenia. Physical signs (Chvostek's, Trousseau's or von Bonsdorff's) and abnormalities of the electromyogram or electroencephalogram can usually be elicited. Signs and symptoms of TS are frequently encountered in clinical practice, especially among patients with functional or stress-related disorders. The role of Mg deficit in TS is suggested by relatively low levels of serum or erythrocyte Mg and by the clinical response to oral Mg salts, which has been demonstrated in controlled studies. Among the more serious neurologic sequelae of TS are migraine attacks, transient ischemic attacks, sensorineural hearing loss and convulsions. Mg deficiency may predispose to hyperventilation and may sensitize the cerebral vasculature to the effects of hypocarbia. Mg deficiency increases susceptibility to the physiologic damage produced by stress, and Mg administration has a protective effect; studies on noise stress and noise-induced hearing loss are taken as an example. In addition, the adrenergic effects of psychological stress induce a shift of Mg from the intracellular to the extracellular space, increasing urinary excretion and eventually depleting body stores. Drugs used in neurology and psychiatry may affect Mg levels in blood and may diminish signs of tetany, making assessment of Mg status more difficult. Pharmacologic use of Mg can decrease neurologic deficit in experimental head trauma, possibly by blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. In conjunction with high doses of pyridoxine, Mg salts benefit 40% of patients with autism, possibly by an effect on dopamine metabolism.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 I was reading a book by Dr. Lendon the other day at the library and he mentions that nocturnal seizures may be caused by the drop in blood sugar while sleeping. I did not read the rest of this section as my son does not have this type of seizure but there was more info there. You may be able to find the book on Amazon or in your library - the book was called Feed Your Kids Right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Hello, Jack! You need to get tested for E2 and prolactin. There are OTC supplements you can take that will fix you up if your levels are high - DIM if you have high E2, and munuca pruriens if your prolactin is high. Also, your total T is pretty low for someone your age. You should be shooting for the neighborhood of 800 or so. Finally, most doctors are dicks and they don't want to treat you. Don't trust them too much, read back through a few hundred messages and you'll see that sometimes they're cool, sometimes not.
