may be oppositional-defiant disorder? Perhaps a visit to your pediatrician would help. Also

Posted By: sm on 2006-08-23
In Reply to: I need some help. - :(

"Oppositional defiant disorder is a recurrent pattern of negativistic, disobedient, hostile, defiant behavior toward authority figures without serious violations of the basic rights of others. Such children exhibit persistent stubbornness and argumentativeness, persistent testing of limits, an unwillingness to give in or negotiate and a refusal to accept blame for misdeeds. This behavior is evident at home but may not be manifested elsewhere. These children and adolescents do not see themselves as defiant; instead, they feel they are responding to unreasonable demands or situations. This disorder is usually evident before 8 years of age and is more common in males (until puberty, when male-female rates are equal).  From Vacarolis's Foundations of Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing...

Don't visit now, visit inJuly/Aug to get....
an idea of what the weather is like.  It's DISGUSTING in the summer. Great if you like a 100 degree steam bath.
My son's pediatrician...sm
retired and closed his practice. He divided up his records among several other docs in the area. It was awful. We tracked down the records, but it took a few phone calls.
my pediatrician
My pediatrician still uses paper.  She has always handwritten everything.  I was just there today and saw a sign saying they were hiring full- & part-time.  I was in a hurry so I didn't ask, but I will be calling tomorrow when the office opens.  I am assuming they are looking for data entry people to start moving all those files from paper to electronic.  If that's the case, then I will be applying.
My pediatrician said not to give PB as it
can actually prolong diarrhea.   Ginger ale is best for nausea.  I'd just do liquids for hydration and forgo anything else for bowel rest.  I always put toothbrushes through the dishwasher or at least dip in bleach and rinse well when we have a sickness to help stop spread too.  
Pediatrician - what age to stop

I'm typing reports for 20-year-olds who are being hospitalized in Pediatrics and seen by pediatricians.  Some of these patients are already parents themselves.  I don't think I would want my 7-year-old in the same room as a 20-year-old with a baby of her own. 


At any rate, does anyone know the age nowadays when pediatricians sent their pts to adult care providers?  It used to at age 15 or 16, but that was eons ago. 


Thanks!  I'm just curious. 


 


See a pediatrician. Ask around for a good one if you don't already have one. sm
Also, research the internet. There are many natural ways to handle things like this without medication, but it will take time and patience.
Just took daughter to the pediatrician and they are now using EMR...

   


Another update - pediatrician report....
They just got back from the pediatrician's office. The doctor is a pretty smart woman and weighed the child in her shorts and t-shirt, no shoes, and told her that she has to come by every week and be weighed in exactly the same outfit, and that she checks pockets and under shirts to make sure that no one tries to stuff them to make themselves look heavier. I guess she's seen these tricks before. She told the child that she's at the correct weight now for her height and shouldn't lose anymore weight. She did give my hubby some referral sources for counseling so he'll make phone calls about that today and he's going to make his daughter go even though right now she is very upset with him about it. "Oh well" I said to her!
anxiety disorder
I'm feeling I have this, though have never been clinically diagnosed.  I get very uncomfortable in large crowds and much prefer being in a setting with just one or two people or even being alone.  I have gotten worse as I've gotten older.  Then again, I really seem to ENJOY my solitude so I'm not certain it's a bad thing completely.  
not symptoms of bipolar disorder
actually, that just sounds like most of the spoiled kids I've met - society won't treat them the way mom did so they're trying to push the buttons they used to push w/mom. (Did she die or wise up?).
Anyone have social anxiety disorder?

Sleep disorder transcription
Does anyone know of any companies that do strictly sleep disorder transcription, that are looking for IC's?

Passive Aggressive Personality Disorder...

You just described my ex, and he has passive aggressive personality disorder and oppositional defiant disorder. 


Here's a description:  http://www.toad.net/%7Earcturus/dd/papd.htm.


I would also recommend reading "Why Does He Do That?  Inside The Minds of Angry and Controlling Men" by Lundy Bancroft.  You can buy it at Barnes and Noble and amazon.com.


My ex loves to annoy people for the fun of it.  The only way you can get him to do anything is to tell him not to do it.  And, of course, he is extremely controlling.  It is just my opinion, but I think that people with these types of personality problems just shouldn't be married to anyone.  Every time my ex gets a new girlfriend, I really just want to give the poor girl a hug.  If your husband has this type of personality, you really should divorce him.  Life is just too short to spend it with someone who makes everyone around them miserable.


They say that this is the most difficult personality disorder to live with..

My therapist said that of all the personality disorders/mental illnesses, this is the one that is the most difficult to live with, and I think that it even mentions that in the diagnostic criteria.  Once my ex was diagnosed, a huge weight lifted off of me, and I no longer felt so much anger and frustration.  I can't tell you how good it feels AFTER you divorce someone like this.  Suddenly the world just seems wonderful when you don't have to deal with them anymore.


 


 


Good grief...multiple personality disorder???

sounds like post-traumatic stress disorder!

Has anyone had any experience with a family or friend with bipolar disorder or some form of
mental problems.  How do you handle this person if you deal with them almost daily and you can see something is wrong in their thinking?
In her case, I'm guessing personality or mental disorder. After all, they are pretty common. NM

I'm not going to visit my family either.
They wanted me to take five days off of work and the other huge project I'm working on now to fly to visit with everyone at a luxury condo where they're all staying. That was fine. I was willing to work extra so I could have enough money for the condo rental and restaurant meals. (Everyone else is somewhat well-off with fewer kids than I have. They take frequent trips on holidays.)

Daddy dearest had to get involved and basically told me it would be too much trouble for me to go. I'd have to find a ride to and from the airport because he wasn't going to pick me up in in his rental car. Husband, aunt or taxi cab could have done it. I'd have to share a bathroom and sleep on the hideabed because my cousin was bringing her boyfriend so there wasn't enough room for me. This boyfriend isn't even related, and this event is a birthday celebration for my brothers. If anyone should be there, it should be me, not my cousin's latest bedfellow! Then Dad told me that I shouldn't be wasting money on trips when I've got a family, bills to pay, and that huge project. That's really none of his business. It's not like I'd go bankrupt over a few hundred dollars. He also said I shouldn't leave my kids because who would watch them. That's what my husband, AKA the kids' father, does. It's called parenting. Dad has also chewed me out no less than four times over the arrangements for this trip because obviously I'm too stupid to handle making my own reservations, never mind the fact that I've traveled all over the country by myself since I was 15 years old.

The last time I vacationed with my parents and brothers, my father made it completely miserable. He was bossing me around, treating me like a child, asking me about my finances, and criticizing everyone around him. Then he had the audacity to tell me in front of everyone that I was eating like a pig and was going to end up weighing 300 pounds. All I had eaten that day by 5:00 p.m. was one piece of wheat toast, one hardboiled egg, a cup of coffee, water, and a small handful of raw almonds. Then he lectured me for 20 minutes on the fat content of nuts and the virtues of diet and exercise. Like he should talk. Yeah, well, we've obviously got issues, too. I don't care, I'm not ruining my holiday worrying about it. I'm not going. I don't want to be separated from my own family when my husband and kids weren't even invited. I don't want to put up with Dad's attitude. He's made it clear that I'm not welcome. He tells me I'm stupid for doing things all the time, but I'm the first one he calls when he needs help with something.
Well, we don't have a choice when we visit...
It is an offer my husband's company is making. I live in Houston, so 100 degree weather is nothing new to me. I love the summer and I love the beach, so none of those reasons would keep me away. I am looking quite forward to it to be honest. It is beautiful there, at least the area we will be living in.

You would do well to visit the New MT board...sm
and some of the company boards here. MT isn't what it's advertised to be and it isn't what it used to be. There are definitely some challenges to the field from EMR and offshore that aren't going to go away. We are seeing job loss already. So know that it will be even more difficult to get into MT than it was 20 years ago and also that the future of MT is much more shaky than even 5 years ago. I'm in school working for a degree so I have something to do when it collapses. You will be wise to look through the above boards I mentioned (and archives) to get a feel for what is going on...

I will warn you though...very, very graphic.


Let me tell you how I approach the visit
If going to a new physician, I have my history and physical and all other information typed out for them. If a return visit, I type out a small list noting the reason for the visit. Mine are short and sweet, first of all because if not written down, hard for me to remember and just makes it easier for perhaps a person who is on their treadmill trying to see all the patients they can and me as I don’t want to spend a lot of time there either. I heard somewhere that after about the first 4 or 5 minutes you are tuned out anyway. Why not simplify for the visit??
Doctor Visit
Actually he said they usually do 600 mg every 6 hours or 800 mg every 8 hours. He just looked at my arms and wanted to know where I felt the pain was coming from, i.e., muscle/tendon or bone. I said muscle. He asked if I had any numbness or tingling, and I said no. That was it.
Oh no! My cats come to visit me too. They

It was amazing. My 2nd visit.
We were only there for 2 days in July. I got a whole week this time. My daughter lives there, in South Lake Tahoe.

I stayed at the Montblue in Nev. Very luxurious but pricey. DD got me a nice discount. The Horizon is also very nice and a little cheaper if you like the Casino thing. They also do the weekly Wifi rate there if you are going to work ($29). The Lakeside Inn is nice as well. There are lots of other smaller places too. I saw a nice Best Western that was right on the lake on the California side.

If you go, check out the Blue Water Bistro in South Lake Tahoe for a great dinner right on the water. I also really liked Sprouts (a good lunch place) which is all vegetarian organic type food. The restaurants in the Montblue are all good! 20-Four has the most awesome key lime log cake. I was trying to figure out a way to bring some home with me.

I drove the whole 70 some miles around the lake. Tahoe City is really a beautiful little town. My favorite spot was Sand Harbor. Of course Emerald Bay is just beautiful too.

I say go!! It is the off season right now probably til Thanksgiving or so when ski season gears up. Then things slow down again around April/May before all the summer tourists. That is when you can get your best rates.

I came across "FlyLady"... it is actually a website "family" that HELPS get this time and CHAOS under control.  Things DO get out of control, and it slowly kills us inside... depressing us.  This website helps you take control of your time, sets up 15 minutes a day ONLY to work on your "zones"... one week you are in the living room, then maybe the master bedroom, then the bathroom and another small room.... this disaster did NOT happen overnight, and you cannot expect yourself to get it straightened out overnight.  Things get out of hand, but this website family can truly help... I did it, and within ONE MONTH my household was finally manageable, and I could open my door to anyone who came to visit... my friend and her husband came to visit me after a month of FlyLady work, and her husband just said "It just feels home-y to me.  What did you do?"  A MAN said that, and he didn't know what I was doing.  It is very cool, and encouraging, and strengthening!!!  There are e-mails sent several times a day for reminders to hop up and do a 5-minute "hot spot" rescue (hot spot being a spot in the house where it seems to get out of control).... take an hour, cruise the website, it is SO much fun... and DON'T FORGET TO SHINE YOUR KITCHEN SINK!!!  IT WILL MAKE YOU SMILE!!! 


Like we are going to visit a board from India.

office visit in what state?
Doctor is from India.  Patient is a FU on hypertension.  He says She came here s/l (drasting) ??? state believing that she needed blood work.  Said in plan for her to keep regular FU appointment.  She was well, but don't understand what state she came to visit?  Drastic maybe?  Help please if you can.  Thanks.
Maybe you should visit the mental health board

to discuss the topics of lonlieness and depression.  You obviously have no one at home to talk to.


How many times a day on average do you visit this board?

It's easy, just don't visit the main page ;)
Wow.
Anybody have to visit the hospital lately to an updated system? sm

I have gone recently for a medical problem and I am amazed how they have everything networked to different departments.


So I didn't like watching my wages go down and I now work for specialists, but it was such a nice hospital visit.  I was in and out of there in no time with no waiting.  It was an amazing system.  And this is a large acute care hospital!  I was absolutely amazed.


When I go back East to visit relatives
I am shocked that some things are a lot cheaper and briefly consider a move, but I adore the weather here.  I also don't get why they send all the good veggies/fruits back there and we get left with the icky ones (unless you go to a farmer's market - which is what I try to do).  Maybe the good ones survive the trip better and they figure we can deal with the shopworn ones locally.
Yep, my son's doc charged 111.00 for a 3 minute visit to tell him he had a kidney stone.
And to think the insurance paid it. Hmmm.
Yep, a visit to a cancer ward makes just about any day-to-day problem seem
s
Yes. It's expensive compared to a single visit for electrolysis but
I have found it very effective. For me it is more painful than electrolysis, but the visits are over much more quickly (takes me about 5 minutes for upper lip, chin, and cheeks). Because hair must be within the growth stage to work, it takes at least 3 visits to finish, spaced about 6 weeks apart, and you can't tweeze, depilate, or bleach while you are having it done. That includes for a few weeks before you start, or the first visit will be a waste. You can shave, which sounds odd to most people, but works just fine during the process. (You will be shaved before the treatments anyway, because the hair melts onto the skin otherwise.) No matter what the ads say, it does still work best on darker hair and light skin, because the melanin affects how the laser works. Another thing you won't hear about before hand is when used over areas of dental work there is an additional zing of discomfort. I put my tongue over the teeth in those areas, which helps some. My technician stopped providing anesthetic cream because of possible allergic reactions, but you can order it over the counter at a drug store or online. I have just toughed it out each time. My face is red for a few hours after treatment, but no burning. There will be a few strays, which they will handle as needed at a lower rate after the agreed upon series of treatments.
I think you are right. I am seeing the same things. I hope it starts soon..I love it. Will visit

Been to Brooklyn to visit friend who worked at the Twin Towers
years ago, can only hope she was not there when they fell. The friend lived in Brooklyn but I am with the above post about trendy, I heard the same thing the other night on HGTV. Are you there in Brooklyn?
Personally I would not force her to go - she can alway visit the grave site to say goodbye- sm
My mom died about 18 months ago, but has there been a funeral I would not have had my kids there (they were 6 & 4 at the time). I know my in-laws would have thought me a terrible person for that but I would not have cared (my mom donated her body to science-- my dad is too). An open casket is a lot different than a closed one and can make quite an impression on some. I just don't think that is something that should be pushed. She is old enough to make the decision, you should abide by it.
