If you suspect Lyme disease, you will need to arm yourself with knowledge and know how to find a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor (LLMD) – your life could depend on it.

In your search for information on Lyme disease, you will see a lot of conflicting information. Much of that information will be from or endorsing the diagnosis and treatment guidelines of the IDSA. it is important to know that the IDSA Lyme guidelines have been found fraudulent by the CT Attorney General. you can confirm that here:

For a diagnosis based on your symptoms of dyslexia, the starting point is normally the teacher of the child. It is time and again the teacher who is the first to point out the problems, even though they don’t typically tell you that your child has dyslexia, a definition of Dyslexia is “difficulty with words or language”, and whilst difficulties don’t always mean dyslexia per se, the problems may lead you to start thinking about about testing.

The challenge of having a weak short term memory can affect organization and can be completely characteristic of having dyslexia. the result is that they have to read something eight to ten times for you to store what a phrase means. Reading words letter by letter as dyslexics do, becomes so slow that reading fluently seems impossible. Brain scanning shows that fluent reading for dyslexics requires the standard zones of the brain to be activated at a much higher level compared to typical non-dyslexic readers.

Softening down the white background with the use of special glasses or colour overlays can help. For dyslexics, the white background behind words can have this effect on their eyes the entire time.

Because of having dyslexia, a child may test poorly in other areas, but those areas are not symptoms of dyslexia. Six Million Brits are dyslexic. In the UK along, 750,000 children are dyslexic and 4% of children are severely dyslexic. Kids are losing your way out there in the world. Many times over a poor vocabulary is day after day wrongly attributed to dyslexia.

Since the teaching style time and again is not done in a way that registers in the child’s eyes, the difficulties faced by the children can impact negatively on the child’s behavior and self esteem. since dyslexia is only rarely diagnosed at the first signs, children time after time become targets of the “slow”, or “lazy” label prior to getting diagnosed and finally understand how their brain operates. “Your just end up feeling stupid” as one dyslexic explained.

Ironically, once a diagnosis of dyslexia is made, all the pressure can ease, as finally there is a reason for the difficulties. This can help lower stress and have a profound effect on the upbringing of a child form that moment.

Those with reading problems tend to need a more relaxing experience than the average reader because they use various neural pathways in the brain when decoding. whilst your child will eventually read and may even become a fantastic reader, they will still need extra time. get more information on the verbal symptoms of dyslexia by continuing to DrLindasBlog.com

Ask a doctor or pharmacist.

Anxiety and panic causes stress and this brings on short term memory loss. you need to see your doctor, he can give you something for the panic attacks, as to restoring your memory loss, I am not sure there is anything that will help with this.

For every child, treatment may vary, what may be a wonder drug for one child may be a complete disaster for another, and sometimes meds used off label (i.e., they weren't intended to treat anxiety/panic) may work as well. it is important that you work with a medical professional when using medications for treatment and creating a treatment plan.

You may want to follow the research on a medication that is currently in trial at this time, STX209, clinical trial is going on for Autism and Fragile X, the study med is based on Baclofen, a med that has been on the market for years and is available. We've participated in the clinical trial and the medication did much more than just treat irritability, my child was in school during the time he was on the study medication and he improved in eleven different areas on his progress report.

Also, there is a new drug that will come to clinical trials in 2010 that in the animal model reversed symptoms and improved cognitive ability, see details below from an article in Time Magazine for more information and for more technical information visit Seaside Therapeutics.

I also encourage you to follow the research from Seaside Therapeutics, treatment options for autism and fragile X are rapidly changing.

Marijuana

Black Coffee.

Possibly St John's Wort. A very judicious use of anti-anxiety herbs– they can have a rebound effect that would be worse than the original panic. this is why people recommend doctors; any herb/drug that helps may hurt if not used VERY carefully.

I don't know any specific medication but I do know a book which can help people deal with Autism. Not only that, it also gives you information on what it is and how to deal with it. My niece was diagnosed with autism when she was 6 and it's been really difficult for her family. They said they have started reading this book and it made their lives a bit easier. I hope this book can help you too.
