Extractions: September is National Mesothelioma awareness month! Mesothelioma is hard to detect, easily mis-diagnosed, and always fatal. Have your doctor check you for Mesothelioma or Pleural Mesothelioma today! Asbestos is a mineral widely used in the past because of its resistance to fire and heat. Loose asbestos fibers can lodge in the surrounding tissues of the lungs and cancerous tissues can develop into Pleural Mesothelioma. The disease may be treated with drugs like Alimta or Cisplatin, but it is essential for everyone to know the symptoma and get tested for Mesothelioma Home

Extractions: Neuronal-axonal disease not associated with Werdnig-Hoffmann disease is a rare condition that primarly involves the axons. Neuronal-axonal disease not associated with Werdnig-Hoffmann disease refers to a group of peripheral neuropathies in which the axon is the primary structure involved. Nerve conduction is normal or only moderately slow. It is diagnosed by sural nerve biopsy. The biopsy shows sphered bodies in the axons, particularly in the presynaptic region. It is important to diagnose this entity because neonates with this disorder may not deteriorate and may even improve with time. The disease has a sporadic or autosomal-dominant inheritance. Giant Axonal Neuropathy Giant axonal neuropathy is a rare condition that involves the central and peripheral nervous systems. It should be suspected when the patient has tightly curled, kinky, poorly pigmented scalp hair. Motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity may not be decreased. The diagnosis is established by finding greatly enlarged axons filled with disarrayed neurofilaments in sural nerve biopsy. The cause is probably an error of metabolism affecting the formation of neurofilaments. Infantile Porphyria Infantile porphyria may produce neonatal hypotonia. The clinical course is characterized by recurrent polyneuropathy. Nerve conduction velocity is normal. The characteristic findings are increased urine delta-aminolevulinic acid and coproporphyrin levels and decreased erythrocyte aminolevulinic acid synthetase activity.
Welcome To Spirit Magazine Our baby had rileyday syndrome, or as it is now called, Familial Dysautonomia,or FD. He looked at us and stammered, barely audibly, Your doctor will call http://www.spiritmag.org/v3n1/fd_ourstory.html

By Lana Steiner The diagnosis came on Shabbos. So many minutiae have been forgotten in the eight intervening years, but every single detail of that day is sharp in my memory, and every facet of the previous day has been conjured up to fit all the pieces together. Our first child, a daughter, came after a fairly normal pregnancy; no major causes for alarm. Doctors ordered six weeks of bed rest for low amniotic fluid, but the baby was fine. Then one morning, just after my husband, David, left for work, my water broke. After twelve hours of labor, at 11:21 p.m. on a cool Friday night in March, our beautiful redheaded daughter was born.

Extractions: Home About Us The Brain Healthy Brain ... Site Map DHTML_MENU_rel_path = '/squizlib/dhtml_menu/images/'; Familial Dysautonomia (also known as Riley-Day Syndrome) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the sensory and autonomic nerve system. It is found primarily in children of Eastern European Jewish background (Ashkenazi Jews) who have inherited two recessive genes (i.e. one from each parent). People born with this disorder have a reduced number of nerve fibres; as a result, they have reduced sensations of pain, touch, temperature and taste. In addition, they are unable to produce overflow tears, have impaired motor coordination, and have difficulty with sucking and swallowing. This leads to repeated vomiting, and frequent lung infections that are brought about by gastrointestinal fluids entering the lungs. Other problems that may occur include excessive sweating, seizures, scoliosis and delayed puberty in girls. While there is no cure for this genetic disorder, medical care is directed at relieving the symptoms it causes. For example, a feeding tube inserted into the stomach can assist in feeding, and prevent fluids etc. from entering the lungs, while drugs are prescribed to prevent vomiting and seizures, eye drops lubricate dry eyes, and surgery can correct scoliosis. With improved medical care, the life expectancy of people with Dysautonomia is increasing, and about 50 per cent live to the age of 30.
