Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 For advice on how to give them go to: http://www.drneubrander.com/page1.html where you will find video footage of families administering them to their kids as well as detailed instructions. Some DANs begin with this treatment no matter what the child is like. Others do other things first no matter what the child is like. Others do it based on the individual child's test results. You definitely need to be comfortable with it before you start. It is a commitment and, though they have been useful for my daughter (one of the last things we added in our case) I really dread the nights we give them even though she sleeps through and doesn't even know she gets them. Other parents LOVE giving them because they see such dramatic improvement in their kids. Josie Starting mb12 shots...need reassurance please! Hi, We just had our first DAN dr appt last week for my 4 1/2yr old HFA son. He suggest we start the MB12 shots and we have decided to, however I am a little nervous. This will really be our first biomedical type treatment and I just wanted a little reassurance. Also any advice on giving shots? Do any of you use numbing cream first? Would appreciate your comments or advice! Thanks! Vinny's mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I was so terrified the night I gave my son his first shot. I had a knot in my stomach all day and was almost in tears as I walked in his room to do it. It was so easy, he didn't even flinch and 20 shots later its old news. I'm in and out of his room in 20 seconds. I use BLT numbing cream about 40 minutes before his shot and put a small bandaid over the area where I put the cream so I don't miss. Once you get the first shot overwith you'll fine!!

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I just started giving my son these shots around Jan. 1st. We don't use numbing cream because we do it at night when he is sleeping. Although, even if he was awake I don't think I would need the numbing cream. The needle is small and the injection is quick. I did look on the Neubrander website for some tips and that definitely helped but overall..it's very EASY. Last night I had to give him his shot..I remembered last minute -it was late and I wanted to go to bed. I looked at the clock and it said 10:07. I ran downstairs-got the shot and an alcohol swab, went into my sons room-gave him the shot and was back in bed by 10:10! We've seen subtle changes with my son and I understand this is typical with B-12. Check out the website..it's very helpful. Best of luck.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Just wanted to add that some kids DO feel it. I use the numbing cream and we do it while she is sleeping but she STILL flinches and occasionally mumbles something about " itchies " though she never has woken up for real. I have experimented all kinds of ways - cream, w/o cream, waiting longer waiting less, testing the cream on myself,, etc etc. I 'know' we are injecting properly but she is STILL at some level aware of us (go into room, pull down covers, pull down pjs, put cream on, come back 20 mins later and pull down covers and pjs and undies and often MOVE her so her bottom is accessible). And do this 3 nights per week. And remember to do it before we are both falling into bed ourselves. I know it is easy for some families - and I am not sayig it isn't worth it - but I find it to be a royal pain AND I sort of feel like I am deceiving her (but prefer this right now to telling her we're doing it). We've been doing it since September. Just another opinion! Josie p.s. On top of it all she has a pair of footy pjs that she LOVES and I often have to lie to her and tell her they are dirty on shot nights or somehow make sure she is not wearing them on shot nights.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I am also using MB12 shots for my son since October 2005. Have no negative to report but notice some subtle improvements.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I used numbing cream for my son at first. Now I just give him the shots while he sleeps and he doesn't wake up. I am so glad we did the biomedical things because my son is so much happier and healthier. He can tell me what is on his mind now as well. eglove <eglove@...> wrote: Hi, We just had our first DAN dr appt last week for my 4 1/2yr old HFA son.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Where do you get the numbing cream? We use to use it prior to blood draws, but the Doctors say it's been discontinued.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 My ND prescribed Methylcobalamin Concentrated powder from Kirkman (under the tongue) which is B12 and she said it was powerfully great. Dr. Bradstreet (Autistic school and Research from Florida) also mentioned at his lecture last year that lots of parents are doing the B12 cream at night time instead so it is less invasive. I just wanted you to have a couple options to look if you didn't know about them. ----Original Message----- From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of le Hays Sent: Tuesday, January 31, 2006 8:00 AM Subject: Re: Starting mb12 shots...need reassurance please!

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 We do B creams at night as well. If we skip 2 days, it's time to move out of the house! So, they definitely work.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 ON the presription it only shows Vit. B complex. I think it's B12, B6 and maybe B2.
