Guest guest Posted March 27, 2000 Report Share Posted March 27, 2000 , I used to live near Chicago (Round Lake), where do you live? We live in Hawaii now (I know, big difference!). when we lived in Round Lake, I was divorced from 's dad (we remarried almost 2.5 years ago), and it was rough. That was before started showing signs of autism (he was only 2-3 at the time). I thought they did have a good early intervention program in Waukegan, though.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2000 Report Share Posted March 27, 2000 Beth, This is (a.k.a. the Lurker) answering some of your questions about my adult son . He lives on the campus of a large congregate care facility. The campus is beautiful with housing ranging from independent apartments and group homes to the appartment units lives in where there is more intense suppervision. We chose this setting because we feel might have more independence in a contained community with good supervision. Still, a large facility is a large system and everyone knows what that is like, weather it's a school system or whatever. goes to what they call a day program. He has several jobs which he doesn't always do for various reasons. He has a very caring instructor who struggles with the limitations of the system sometimes very creatively. paints, swims, trains in self help skills. Some days I feel he has a good life and some days I feel guilty that he is not at home or elsewhere in the community. He communicates with one to three words, some signs, alot of mime and expression. We use photo calendars and are starting Activity Schedules. As I said before he has been on a lot of medications but is off everything now and yes often the medications appeared to help at first but then some times even seemed to aggravate him later. We still consider Risperdol though at present we are working on developing Positive Behavior Support type perspective with the staff as well as continuing education, work and communication projects we keep working on. I work with families at the clinic who tell stories that sound a lot like mine. Our children often have similar problems to deal with concerning communication, behavior, etc.. So, it wouldn't surpise me if autism or an element similar to it isn't part of the puzzle for many of the adults who are struggling. I am always impressed with the challenges my son faces daily. I call him the Budda because he is always teaching me but never sees himself as the teacher. Thanks for the info on Medscape. I already registered. If Margret is reading this, my last name is Cornell not the town I live in. I actually live in Illinois, your home state, in a small town just outside Chicago.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2000 Report Share Posted October 4, 2000 I, too, received my last AICD in December, 1997. It was my third and it's still going strong. I also have a pacemaker. They both pace over 90% of the time. I thought I was " feeling " the pacing and it turns out that what I feel is NONpacing : o) I haven't asked lately how much more life they think it has. Guess I don't really want to know. With the last implant the Dr. tried to place it in the upper right area of my chest. When he tested it, it didn't revive me and I had to have extreme external shocks 3x. The next day they replaced the ICD in the abdonimal area and anchored wiring in the upper-right area of the chest. About 7-8 weeks later the wires pulled out of where they had been placed and I started receiving multiple shocks. Nine of them occurred simultaneously when I was in a small hospital where they had no idea what to do--asked them to use the magnet to stop them but they wouldn't. The Dr. who was caring for me there was not available and they finally transported to a larger teaching hospital where they determined what was the cause and repaired the work. The happy ending to all of this is that I haven't had a shock since that work was done! Prior years I was being shocked on a pretty regular basis. (I really lost count on the number of times. I'm so thankful to be here, enjoying a good life and listening to others who have learned to cope and support one another. Stay healthy, everyone, and lets keep smilin'.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Thanks Diane! I went to digest mode so that the mail doesn't hit the 1000 emails that AOL allows. LOL Had to do it. Speaking of exhaustion, I just think about work and it makes me tired. Standing up for 6 hours a day, running back and forth between customers, is great exercise but way different than sitting on my fanny 8 hours a day. I got me some Rockport walking shoes and that does seem to help some. Hello everyone! I'll try to stay more current, at least for the few days I can. LOL Always, SJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2001 Report Share Posted November 1, 2001 Hello everyone Thanks for all your advice. I'm feeling a bit more positive today. I think I've been in denial since being diagnosed on Monday. I was adamant that I didn't want to go through the surgery. Now I have to accept the fact that 2 surgeries are going to happen in the next 6 months. I now have to concentrate on keeping myself healthy and balanced and to make sure that this awful disease is not going to come back. Reflexology is something that I am going to try. I see the private consultant on Thursday 8 Nov. Until then, I am going to try and get on with my life and not dwell on this too much. Take care everyone Speak soon Helen x > Hello Helen, my name is .My 10 year old daughter has this problem too > and we live in England, and use the NHS.Everyone has given you good > advice,this is a dangerous condition and surgery is the only option.With such > minor symptoms you were really very lucky that the disease was discovered, > because the cyst just grows and grows,eroding and infecting everything in its > path.Ive read lots of histories, and it does seem that for many the problem > is discovered and dealt with, but for others ,the problem recurs, or there > are other pproblems.Mastoidectomy makes the ear cavity bigger,it is more > susceptible to infection, and infection can be more difficult to clear.Altho > surgery is unavoidable, alternative therapy might be useful in the treatment > or prevention of infection.I would love to take to a homeopath, and I > have heard from various sources that reflexology is effective with ear > problems,but my husband and daughter are deeply sceptical..Recovery from the > surgery depends on the procedure, and theextent of the cholesteatoma. > has not experienced dizziness afterwards, but she has had infections.We were > told to keep off school for 3 weeks, but American sufferers seem to get > going nuch quicker.BEST OF LUCK > p.s. hello everyone, still has pain and discharge and there is some > concern that the graft has failed.She is going into hospital on monday so > that her consultant can take a proper look under anaesthetic.HE SEEMS AS > FRUSTRATED AS US BCOS THE OPERATION IN jULY WENT SO WELL, THAT HE WAS SURE IT > WOULD BE AN ENDING.OOPS excuse capitals ,Im not shouting tho I feel like > it.Please wish us luck ,.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2002 Report Share Posted May 25, 2002 Speaking of the Dr. R and Dr Fox connection. If your insurance company wants an American doctor to do the billing, Could one go through Dr. Fox (billing) but still get Dr. R to actually do the procedure? In other words it would be like Dr R subcontracts the procedure from Dr Fox who actually bills the insurance company. If not, Why is anyone paying Dr Fox the extra thousand dollars or so when they could just as easily do it all on their own (with help from the Bandster Community of course(:>)? Any thoughts?
