Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 I wish I knew what the difference between the two is but I don't. Tony also gets a patch of eczema on the right side of his face from time to time which has left a patch of light discoloration on his cheek, but I am trying to use fading cream on it. He is like me and won't wear gloves in the winter and all that recent cold weather we have had recently might have done his hands in.

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 Hi Kathy: Yes, it will be helpful to share the experience with someone else. In fact, I am just about to buy a new computer for home so that I can be connected to the world! I, too, am bone on bone and was told 6 years ago that I needed the TKR but opted to do PT and really strengthen my legs and that did buy me some time and also helps that that technology has improved so much in that time. I will be having a Zimmer TKR. My 10 year old nephew, showed me a website which takes you step by step through virtual TKR. A little more than I wanted to see but he got a big kick out of showing me. For a month I have been doing an accelerated exercise program to build even more strength in both legs. Hopefully, that will help with my recovery. I am also using weights to build upper body strength. The surgeon has recommended that i do the whole routine 3x's a day and it seems like a full time job but I can feel the difference. Whatever it takes, I guess! Nice to hear from you....Marciak f <thickandthin2004@...> wrote: Hi Marcia, Its nice to know someone in the same boat. I hope to have it done in July, I have only seen the Dr. once, he gave me a shot, but it didn't help at all. I go back in about 3 weeks. My friend and I actually sat down and wrote all the questions we could think of and that helps me get the information I think I will need. I am 61 and this started when I was 35, but I am now bone against bone and in a lot more discomfort than I have been in the past. I have been to a couple of sites that have discribed the surgery with pictures. I always like to know what is instore in the future.

I, too, have several steps going in to my house. The surgeon did say in passing that those would not be an issue as I could use the good leg. We'll see what others on this board have to say. Hope you will keep us updated on your progress. When is your surgery date?

I have been reading a lot but havn't see anything about steps and I don't go back to the doctor for a few weeks. I have steps going into my house, no matter which way I go in. Once I am on the main floor I will be fine but I was wondering how I will get up the steps when I come home from the hospital. Has anyone else had to deal with steps coming home from the hospital?

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Thanks Kassia. RJ's close friend has a younger brother with autism. He is high functioning and is mainstreamed with the other 6th graders. Some of the teachers are plain nasty to him at times though when he accidentally goes into one of their classrooms and disrupts things a bit. Honestly, I think all teachers should have more training on dealing with ADD, ADHD, autism, etc so they can do more for these kids.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 HEAR HEAR!! APPLAUDING WILDLY! I try to educate each teacher each year on what 's issues and abilities/disabilities are and what works and doesn't in dealing with him. He's changed so much in the last few years that there is thankfully less to tell but I feel better just making sure they understand him a bit before they work with him. Our school district seems to be one of the more progressive in terms of special ed issues and training for teachers and aides but there is still much to be done...

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Absolutely. My parents have often reminded me that teachers are taught to teach to the middle. That means the kids that excel and those that have difficulties are not helped as much as those who are average. It's stupid if you ask me.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 I totally agree... and I have a teaching certificate too! When I was in college, back in the late 1980s (eek, that sounds so long ago now) we were not taught anything about special ed or gifted kids and now I have one of each (DD probably is gifted, will get tested next spring) and find it quite frustrating! From what I hear not much has changed in that regard and teachers get most of their "extra" education from in-services (and parents like us).

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 -- Hi Judy, I had to laugh when you said " he was a little man, now a little monster. " that is exactl what prozac did to my daughter. Well, it didnt turn her into a man technically, but it made her bossy enough to say 'hey mom, I am gonna break your bones. " . A boss child. We got off that right away she takes risperdol and tyreptal. She is doing okay. What exactly do those 5o4 plans do for you? thanks Kathy - In , jchabot <jchabot@...> wrote: > > Hi Kathy, > I have three kids > Brittany (12) diagnosed with anxiety only, no meds, doing very well, high honor student, has never been a problem what- so-ever.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Kathy, The 504 plan for my son is just basically for his speech. He has to go every week. I'm sure I'll have to add more to it soon in school because he's been getting into a little trouble. My daughter has it for some accomodations like, if she needs untimed CMT's, or if she is going through a hard time , I can have her homework stopped, or if she needs to come in late.(She won't get penalized for these tthings with the 504) She may need an IEP instead very soon.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Judy - My 13 year old son just started prozac - only his second week on it. What happened to your son? Are there certain signs I should be watching for? My husband and I feel like he has gotten worse over the past 2 weeks - but the psych started him on such a low dosage - 2.5 mg, that we don't think it is a result of the medication (other things like school starting, etc) Any thoughts you could share would be appreciated. thx. angela jchabot <jchabot@...> wrote: Hi Kathy, I have three kids Brittany (12) diagnosed with anxiety only, no meds, doing very well, high honor student, has never been a problem what- so-ever.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 , You may have read what I have--that when there's a negative reaction to a new medication, it could be a good sign that it is affecting the part of the brain that causes OCD, and will prove effective in a positive way in time and with the right dose. So maybe this is a good thing. --- Leonard <aktl07@...> wrote: > Judy - > > My 13 year old son just started prozac - only his > second week on it. What happened to your son?
