Guest guest Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 He has s special ed teacher and is in a class with 2 other boys. He spends half his day with other " normal " preschoolers. His teacher is a TOD...course she is deaf herself and doesn't speak much or very well. His " auditory " training is being done by an interpreter who is being trained by AEA consultant in how to conduct auditory training. Are their specialist(certified) people similiar to a SLP in that type of training? Our IEP is tommorow. This will be a new one since he has been implanted. I do not think they keep up on his equipment all that well at school...I want it written in IEP that 2 people are trained in use of Proccesor and also that equipment checks be done 1st thing in morning and once midday. I know there are days when his hearing aid is left off. can those type of things be put in IEP? Also, I know my daughter didn't tell his teacher that he was being implanted until after it was done, she knew her opposition to implants. That of course is another concern, That his deaf teacher may be more interested in him signing then speaking. It will be hard to bring these things up tommorow. I do not want to offend the teacher. We are in a area of about 400,000, so its not rural. We want him to be verbal....but also think sign can be very usefull as he is still deaf when that CI is not turned on. I am going to request that he gets daily speech...as he is way behind and at 4...this is a critical time. Do you think 30 min a day is unreasonable. Thanks so much for your response. There are very few implanted kids in this area..or other parents to talk to grandpa Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But please remember that you are looking to do what is best for your grandson. Offending teachers often comes with that territory. If the teacher is a hard-line deaf person who dislikes CIs and will not support verbal and auditory learning, then she is possibly not the right person to be working with your child. Our sons is verbal because he lost his hearing after kindergarten. We have met people who are hard-line oral and hard-line ASL. Neither really works for our son. He needs support to function orally and is currently learning to sign because it's something he thinks he is going to need as he become " more deaf. " you have to find the right solution for your child (grandchild) and that is not necessarily going to be what the school or TOD is pushing. So fight for what you know is right for this kid and don't worry about bruising the teachers' egos. Be polite and be firm. Your goals include oral training so make sure that is part of the IEP. Our son works with his TOD for 1 hour a day. He is now 14 and has had that amount of time for years. As to speech, I think your grandson's age is also a factor. I don't know if you can keep a 4-year-old focused on speech work for more than that amount of time. Our son never received speech services. So -- all you parents with little ones and experience in this, please add your 2-cents! Best -- Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Hi Jane... haven't seen you around.... Okay... suppressed TSH is good for you..... but what about the thyroid hormone levels, especially Free T3? How are they looking... if they are still low that explains all the symptoms.... Do you have the last labs that you can post?

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Yo ! Here's my last lab : T3 uptake 46.20 T4 9.7 Free Thyroxine index 11.2 TSH .07 Seems to me with my tsh needing to be suppressed i.e. on hyperthyroid end, then my T3 & 4 would be outside the " normal " high reported on lab results. Since the TT and RAI and starting levothyroxine, seems I've gone into menopause. Doc did a FSH test on me, it's 25 and says the high range for menstruating females is 22.5 and lowest range for postmenopausal is 16.7 Endo seemed to think it meant I had gone into hormonal menopause vs. induced menopause. I'm the youngest of 3 girls in the family, and the first to have this blessed event! Not ready to get rid of the feminine products quite yet, though. Why do we wait for menopause, and then when we hit it, we're called postmenopausal? If menopause is no more eggs being released, what's postmenopause then? My last labs were 3/29. About 6 weeks ago, I was overmedicated, hyperthyroid, and going crazy. I think we were in contact during that. Once my med level dropped in my body, I got my brain back and back on solid ground. So now I am really leary of doing too much med. I have started back on a bit of Cytomel. I take a 5mcg pill and divide it into rough quarters, and am taking one dose of it upon waking, with my levothyroixine. I can tell a bit of difference in fatigue. I will try raising it to half the 5mcg when we get back from vacation. See if it is too much, or helps with the fatigue. I see myself making little improvements week to week both in brain clearing up more and energy. It gives me hope that things will continue to improve. But from what hubby told endo, and got out of me, endo seems to think this isn't normal. I'm always stretching for that next piece of improvement, brain, energy or both. Another aspect of this, that I told hubby last night, is it's like I've been in med graduate school since November, on the web learning about thyroids and adrenals and now Sjogren's, Chronic Fatigue and sleep apnea. I think we'll find out I do have apnea, from those who've seen me sleep. I kinda am hoping for that, since the cure seems to be easy. Anyhow, it's not like I'm not doing anything, I spend up to 6 hrs on this computer, finding sites and learning. And I know from my college days, that learning is tiring. Anyhow, see where this goes. Got me kinda bummed again. Am I really going to get better? And all I can do is wait, time will tell, and tests and trying different things. I'm not one to rule out psychological factors, like if this was depression and God knows, hearing the " C " word is a blow to get over. But I think I've worked on the psych side enough and other than bouncing back from the " C " word, I don't think it's psych stuff. But then I wonder what if it is, and if it is, how can I know, and then admit it to myself so to work on it ? It's at that point that I hope others, and God, have soft 2 by 4's to hit me over the head so I get the message and have the ah-ha. But, I just think I'm not that bonkers. I've worked on my psych stuff too much. And then, I do have my family doc, the endo and the psychiatrist who has done meds and therapy with me, all on my side, for me to get back to my normal.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Do you have the ranges for your 'T"s?\ With all the hormonal fluctuations that you've been through.. the thyroid doing it's thing .. the scare of the surgery and the RAI and of course the big C..... now menopause... yeah.. your upper gray matter is going to be doing some flip flops up there... a LOT of changes in the chemistry in your body in, as far as it's concerned, a VERY short time... Suppressed TSH doesn't mean that your hyper, or mean that your Frees are over range... you have to actually check the Frees to see if they are over... The 'ideal' goal is to provide enough replacement to drop that TSH to near zero, but not so much to bring the Free's over range.... That can be harder to do in some.. easier in others... when I had my labs done last year... my TSH was well below 1.0 and flagged as below range and hyper.... but my Frees, both of them, were near the bottom of their ranges, and I was still hypo... indicating I had to increase my dose... and I did.... Over the last couple of months I've had to drop my dose a bit... to stretch out my pills till I can order more.... I can see symptoms creeping back.... most notably is tendons again... this time not my foot, but oddly enough behind my right knee and in my neck.... Proves to me how huge a difference a relatively small adjustment can make.... You'll get it figured out Jane... you're smart, you're making use of available resources... you have hubby in your corner.... and you have a doc that listens and sees that something is still off... you'll get it figured out.....

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 Thanks . It helps to be reminded my body/brain has a lot to adjust to. I have set for myself that one year marker for how much I've improved, and have told myself if not where I have been at my best, before, then back to docs and testing and exploring. But it looks like that testing and exploring is happening sooner. My psychiatrist who handles those psych meds, and the other docs, want me off the meds she's prescribed to see how my brain clears up after that. I'm on nortriptyline, celexa, trileptal, xanax and ambien. The last 3 I only take at night so to sleep - or so before my goiter was found and tt and all. Pdoc now thinks my insomnia was thyroid stuff. But I haven't tried coming off them yet. I am going to after our vacation. I need some time of this form of solid ground I'm on, some time to garner strength, to face whatever difficulties there might be coming off those meds and when I'm off them. But every doc, and I see it too, say how those meds impact brain function. I do expect to feel a clearer brain. But then, needing to have a suppressed tsh cuz of thyroic cancer, I'm on the hyper side and sleep problems are one of the symptoms. Right now I just don't have the inner strength to battle sleep problems. It will be interesting to find what the sleep study finds on me. Note to self - talk to docs about significance of doing sleep study before or after off sleep meds. Ok, a lot for gray matter to adjust to, physically and psychologically. I have glimpses - it's like I see a small point of light in my brain, and I have glimpses of how I was when I did 12 hr days and loved it - where I had to drag myself out of my studio cuz there were other obligations. Where I got housework done too, it was no big deal. And there was joy. I get glimpses of that. And that's new since the thyroid was removed and all that's come with it, I haven't been able to have those glimpses the last 3 years when I steadily declined. It might be more than 3 years, that's part of this - memory hasn't been good for years, worse since the surgery, but I can only see to that 3 yr marker. I'm getting glimpses of what it is to be healthy. My hope is that those glimpses will enlarge. Time, I give myself time. Like I have a choice !

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Tis, Your TSH is out of range now. Free T4 & FT3 should have been done to complete the picture. You are Synthroid ? Have you considered changing Thyroid meds ? Getting T3 as well ? Cholestrol is most likely a result of your out of range Thyroid. I have just started my new meds today ... T3. Will eventually have T4/T3 combo. Can you change your Thyroid meds or change your Dr ? Jane > > Just got home with my latest labs. Have posted them below the ones I > had taken in March.

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Well...I have always been a Atkins fan and he said lots of fruit is bad and gives you Diabetes and Insulin problems which leads to cholesterol. Not going into that arguement here. 20 years of Atkins style diet ( meat and veg) and I am fine. Always get worse on fruit & carbs. But Thyroid is the topic and is your Thyroid managed well ?

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 That is how I was for two years hun and I went to the drs every week. No one could tell me what was wrong. Now I know it was thyroid even though I was in range. Now that I am just into hyper range I feel great and the doc wants to lower my dose. I think I am going to tell him I was taking both synthroid and armour the first two days and then I also took the armour a couple hours before my tests and ask him to keep me on this dose and wait and and test me in 6 more weeks because after two years of feeling like you are now I am finally just this week feeling good again. I also had to rego on antidepressents because I found I am actually one of those that does have a chemical imbalance but both combination has helped and adding DHEA and Selenium to my daily regiman has helped. So I guess what I am saying is pls pls dont give up. I was ready to also. I even told my husband I felt like I was dying. Please please try to find a dr that might help you better. I found the dr that deals with allergies here with no shots is the one that deals with armour thyroid only in our area. None of the endos will even prescribe it. I will add you to my prayer list and pray for your recovery. Reach out if you believe in God and ask him for strength and keep searching dont give up.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Meleese, I understand your concerns but I have researched this with great interest. I am currently taking Synthroid>>.15mg. I have posted my latest labs at: http://www.tisonlyme.com/routinehematology.html. As per my other postings I had my thyroid gland removed (due to pappilary carninoma) and lympth nodes all removed on the right side. As for the thyroid helper it contains these ingredients. Selenium (from L-Selenomethione) 150mcg Manganese (from picolinate) 2mg L-Tyrosine 400mg Ashwagandha (Withania) 600mg (standarized for 1.7% withanaloids) Gugulipid (Commiphora mukul) 600mg (standarized for 2.5% guggulsterones) This is the write up on the Thyroid Helper straight from the site.
