Patti,

Back up a little bit....I'm not in pain. None at all actually. What I am having is weakness in both my shoulders and hips. Getting up from (God forbid) the floor or from a squat or even from a low chair has become more difficult and the same thing applies to doing anything that is dependent on my upper arms or shoulders. But nothing hurts.

So far I haven't noticed any difference from the Imuran but I didn't expect to yet. My doctor will increase my dose pending the results of bloodwork I had done yesterday.

So it's wait and see.

Hi Everyone,I have a friend who wanted to inquire about 2 separate issues. The first is about whether or not there now exists a test or markers that help identify autism in a fetus. Someone said they heard that something recently was developed (maybe out of U of M) but they were not sure. Has anyone heard of this? As far as I know, there is no way to detect Autism prior to birth. and secondly... Does anyone know what the school policy is for kids acting out. Can they call parents to pick them up? I thought they were required to work it through with the children in school as picking a child up would only reinforce the behavior. Can anyone

advise about the school's legal responsibility? I believe the child is a ese class. Thanks for all your help in advance.
