Patient discussion about AMP.

Q. My child, who has dypraxia, passed both TOVA & BRC. Help, I don't want to put him on ritalin but feel pres Since age 4 my child has received OT, ST and Physiotherpy. He is now 81/2 and has difficulties at school. Last year, after years of therapy, we went to a private Neuro Developmental Physiotherapist and she diagnosed him with Dyspraxia. I thought that my son was good at sport, but when she asked him to do the simplest of task like stand on one leg, or walk one foot infront of the other, he had great difficulty. He has diffculty processing information or thoughts and turning them into actions. This is especially evident in copying from the blackboard. His handwriting is extremely poor, even after many years, at much expence, of intense OT. His attention span is very poor, he daydreams and shuts down in class. The slightest noise, knock on the door, ticking clock etc wil break his concentration. He has passed both TOVA and BRC test, yet I am still under pressure from the school to put him on ritalin. I feel his concentration & attention problems are due to his Dyspraxia. Help

A. Hello I dont no if this will help you, My son has been told he MAY have mild dyspraxia but at the end of the day my son is a great kid with so much to give and lots of love with in him, I suggest that you stay away from ritalin it will only sedate your son, he will not be himself he will become a child with no spirit.

I no an American lady who lived in the uk at the time and used ritalin the out come was that she regretted using it on her daughter as she had lost her real child due to the drug.

Q. Diet & exercise do not help with weight loss since being on psyc. meds. Any suggestions?

A. L-carnitine and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) can be helpful for fat loss. Studies are mixed, but I find them to be effective.

Try cutting out grains (rice, corn, wheat) and eat vegetables and fruits for carbohydrates instead.
