Hi Nathan,

Is this like a processing problem like ADD?

Hi Nathan,

I am on new supplements that are reorganizing everything inside for me
right now…from top to bottom it seems. The symptoms I was having did
not make me feel like there were rainbows for me on that day, because
of the intense therapy for me, and it caught me off guard.

I read your post yesterday, but the computer monitor was bothering me
so I had to get off. I have two faceted crystal balls hanging in my
bedroom windows, and the sun moved due to it now being spring, and the
light hit one of them just right and it made rainbows that covered my
ceiling with them.  I thought about what you said, and it brought a
smile to my face. Thanks.

One of the supplements I started taking caused me an annoying problem.
Intense buzzing in my ears, but the good news, in desperation I
grabbed my light color filter glasses and put them on. Immediately,
the buzzing in my ears stopped. I use them now as my computer glasses.

Interestingly, even after I took them off the buzzing in my ears did
not come back! They still do not help me when I am inside the house. I
am satisfied to use them as my computer glasses. After my therapy is
done, and if I need to, I will get another color tint check from Helen
or just get them re tinted, as they are fine for now.

When the bad chiropractor hurt me, it was odd how my glasses just
stopped working for me the way they use to. Instinct told me that
there was something more going on than just getting rechecked by
Helen. I was doing so well with them up until the bad chiropractor
hurt my neck again, but no worries...things are coming my way again. I
have rainbows again in my life.

Lu

Dear Lu,
               Thanks for not only being so kind, but your
encouragements as well.
               I am 29, so not super young, but old enough for my
reading issues and concentration issues to have made my life a bit
tougher.
               I am sorry to hear all the problems you have had with
your vision and health.
               I will keep you in prayer, as you thrive.
               Thanks again,
                  Nat

Dear Lu,

Hyperlexia occurs when an individual reads at an advanced level but
cannot comprehend the work that he or she is reading. Nathan

RE: prolotherapy for chronic pain
Lu,
I've only had one prolotherapy treatment for one shoulder--5 weeks ago. I
notice being stronger and having more range of motion and less chronic pain
already. However, it will take 3 treatments before this shoulder is "done,"
the dr. thinks.

The treatment:
I had several injections of corn syrup and lidocaine all around my left
shoulder, which was injured 13 years ago in a car accident and never
improved despite traditional and alternative treatments over the years. I
get my 2nd treatment this week. For a few days, I felt slammed against a
wall and took lots of Tylenol. The shots themselves weren't bad (like a bug
bite) except one hurt more because it was deep, I suppose. One cannot take
antiinflammatory meds after the treatment (just Tylenol, which is for pain
but not for inflammation) since the theory is that inflammation causes the
area to heal.

RE: arthritis
I did look at the arthritis site you mentioned. Sounds interesting. So are
you taking antibiotics all the time?

Questions:
If you take antibiotics all the time, what do you do to keep the good flora
in your intestines?
Will you have to remain on antibiotics, or are you "cured" at some point?

Julie Evans

Hi Julie,

Wow! I want to thank you for this information. I have been in extreme
pain from the bad chiropractor all of this time, because he set me
back with severe, acute pain. Oddly, my seizures somehow improved?
They are still there so I have to be careful by wearing my color
filter glasses when I am out of my house.

My neurologist referred me to Dr. Robert Franco, MD (Rheumatology),
and I just received good news yesterday from Dr. Franco and that is
that in 3 months my chronic exhaustion (blunt force fibromyalgia) will
be better, and in six months my brain fog (blunt force fibromyalgia)
will be good as well!

You can visit his website at www.thearthritiscenter.com or call him at
(909) 788-0850. I am overwhelmed right now with all of these wonderful
improvements in my life. I deserve this time in my life, and since the
auto accident Helen and Dr. Rinaldo (good chiropractor who did Applied
Kinesiology) were the main two doctors who helped me up to the point
where Dr. Beck (bad chiropractor) re-injured me. and I assure you that
I saw a bunch of white coats that did not bring much physical relief
for me. I am sure Dr. Franco will push me to a healthier level.

As a backup I am glad to know about Prolo therapy as it makes sense to
me, and should I need to explore this. It will be something I will
share with Dr. Franco.  When did you do this? Do you still feel pain
during the injections? How many have you had? What percentage has it
helped you?

Lu

Lu and others who have old injuries, chronic pain or fibromyalgia:
I'm doing prolotherapy for an old shoulder injury from a car accident.
It's also used for fibromyalgia pain.

Look it up on www.prolotherapy.com.
It is considered a non-surgical and permanent treatment for chronic pain.

Basically, the dr. injects something (corn syrup and lidocaine in my case)
into the painful area to cause ligaments and whatever to become irritated...
and then to heal stronger... lessening or eliminating the pain.
The Mayo newsletter even finally recognized it this month. It has been
considered experimental for a long time. Former Surgeon General Koop has
been a huge proponent.

I started to tell Lu about this offline, but decided many of us who are
light sensitive have also had injuries and might benefit.

Julie Evans

Hi Nathan,

How are your eyes doing now? I am sorry to hear of your problem with
your ambolyia (lazy-eye). Before I knew about Helen's glasses I went
to Sav-On and purchases a pink wrap around glasses. I was lucky that I
managed to pick a color I tried on there that helped me with my
vision. It helped calm my system down. I wore them for years until a
dumb doctor convinced me that I did not need them.  He was wrong as my
seizures became worse.

When Helen diagnosed the colors for me, I did not want to give back
the color lenses because how well they helped me. It was torture
walking out of her office without them. Then they came UPS and how I
cried and danced in my heart with joy. My world changed, as I was able
to be more involved with my life. For about three years you would
never seem me without them on my face.

Now...I use them as needed as my system has calmed down. I have
discovered the cause of my light sensitivity and that is from regional
blunt force trauma to my neck from the auto accident I had in 1991. I
am currently seeing a rheumatologist and a neurologist. I now
basically wear my dark sunglasses when I go outside, and the lighter
ones when inside. I never leave home without them.

I suffer from fog brain from my fibromyalgia that goes into my brain.
I can't say that I understand it all, but relieved to finally have
doctors who are helping me now. I still am happy with my glasses but
my system does not need them like before. I am glad, but I am not out
of the woods yet.

Lu

Hi Nat,

It is tough when you are a child, and no one pays attention to your
school learning struggles in school. Ouch. I also suffered from
Dyslexia in school, but it was never diagnosed, so I fell through the
cracks, but I managed to go on with my life in school…ignored.

It did not hold me down as I excelled in my life. Then I had an auto
accident and the blunt force trauma wreaked havoc in my life. This is
when my vision problems become chronic. I suffered from light induced
seizures. What a mess that was (and sometimes still is), thank
goodness that Helen's color filter glasses were around. I was lucky
that the colors in my color filter glasses helped calm my system down.
  I am more involved in my life now, but currently face the blunt force
trauma injuries that challenge me daily from pain and chronic
exhaustion. How are you doing? I am focused on my writing.

You sound so young, and I hope that you have better health than I
do…do me a favor and grab a rainbow for the both of us.

Lu

one for me.

Hi everyone,

Hi all,
                     I am new here, and have been dealing with vision
issues for quite some time.
                     As a child(probably like many children), I was
not diagnosed at all for dyslexia or other reading problems.This made
my whole reading life miserable, as I never actually read very much
until I was around 12.Even then, I had to 'adapt' and do the best I
could.
                     It's a wonder I graduated high school, with all
my struggles.
                     I think, like most people with dyslexia issues,
we assume that either we are the only one with the issue, or everyone
else has similar issues, and doesn't talk about them.
                     For me, I just kept trudging on, mentioning my
discomfort occassionally.But my parents had other issues, so I never
went anywhere for help.
                     Back to square one again recently with problems
reading, I decided to look up dyslexia info, hoping I could identify
my problems. I found some, but still wasn't sure.
                     Finally,(I think with God's help) I arrived at a
website for dyslexia that mentioned something called scotopic
sensitivity. I pursued research, and was stunned as on and on,I found
my reading problems, totally defined!!! At last! It was me, in plain
english, and all my lifelong struggles with reading!
                     I then began to look up lens colorations, and
remembered I have a blue tinted pair. I ran to my drawer, and placed
them over my eyes. I am now using them while online today, and
already my eyes are relaxing, and the glare is DRAMATICALLY cut down.
                     I just wanted to say, I am so happy that God
showed me what I could do, to receive some help.
                     Now, onto a full diagnosis, as soon as I can, and
I am able to read like I never was before. :)

                     I'd love to hear anyone else's story about
scotopic issues being overcome!Please feel free to share, or e-mail
me: natamonworld@...

      -Nat

Dear Julie,

I agree with the article. I do not have dyslexia, but benefit from
using highlighters. I had strabimus (cross-eyed) surgery at age one
and currently have lazy-eye. I wish my vision problems were not
confused for my coordination difficulties. I have ADHD and NLD, but am
more of a hyperlexic rather than dyslexic reader.

Dear Group,

Avoid scams! With all the expenses that a family can bring, it is
important to be as avid as a saver as you can be. I posted a link on
http://www.clarkhoward.com Click on Clark's Library and there are two
columns of links on various topics.

I find it important to save money especially when you have children
with special needs or when you have a relative who had special needs
and you are considering to have children. Money should work for you;
an individual can be able to earn income of money they already have.
That is why it is so important to pay off debt even if you need to
take on a second job. The younger you are, the better you will end up;
however, since the working age will likely become 75-80 (or may become
70-75 due to a decline in the nation's life span), it is important to
save for unforeseable expenses and to ensure that you are a okay.

I am not trying to say that money is extremely important, but that it
is needed to pay the bills and prepare for unexpected occurrences. Do
not make mistakes in your financial decisions, since your lifestyle is
costly enough. Also visit, http://www.suzeorman.com

I think Suze Orman is kind of snobbish, but she has insight that
provides credibility on how to live your life well.

Nathan

P.S. I also included a link on how your loved one might be able to
find assistance in the underfunded vocational rehabilitation program.

http://www.vba.va.gov/bln/vre/

Nathan:

Money shouldn't be that much of an issue.  screening for overlays should cost
you less than a hundred dollars, (much less.  Most screeners will work with
you on payment.)  There are eight colors, and more possible combinations than I
can calculate.  It's extremely important that you get a proper screening.  My
son, my daughter and I all suffer from SSS and each of us has a different set
of overlays.  My son actually uses five overlays of three different colors.
He can even tell a diference if they're not stacked in a specific order, or if
some of them are inverted. In the end you'll probably save money by getting a
screener to help you chose your overlays instead of randomly trying the
various colors.

You should also consider saving for filters (lenses.) those are much more
expensive, but in my opinion much more convienient.

Please remember that the wrong colors can actually aggrevate rather than help
your condition.  You really need to see a screener!

Good luck!

Thank you. I do not really have the money to take the testing, thus
my case manager practiced with the cover overlays, one with the
Irlen's prescription and one without. She never disclosed the
results, but she felt convinced that I could benefit.

I think they will help me read up and maintain my competence in the
profession; lacking the competence can lead to disassociation with
the accounting profession and in some cases, even prison. Nathan

Dear Julie,

Thanks. The color of green seemed to work best for me. I have also
chosen to have a gray overlay, since I am just so unsure of the
process since I have used highlighters to help. I am very happy about
graduating from college. I just hope that this well help me perform to
my duties as an accountant, since there is a lot we must read even
though there is no guidance on what is needed to be technically
competent. I am planning to pursue a masters degree so that I can
become a CPA, but I would like to get a job. Well, if its not an
accounting job, hopefully 2. I want to be an avid saver since I am
young, do not need the money now, and hope to save it for a rainy day,
when I have a family.

Nathan

P.S. On the other hand, I have to attribute my success to the loss of
wealth in my immediate family. I turned into a better character
because of it.

Dear Lu,

I have lazy-eye. I see an eye practiconer once every several years
for a regular checkup. I have had them since I had surgery for
strabimus at age 1. I often need to indicate to the doctor that I do
have an ambolyia (lazy-eye) and need to adjust the angle at which to
read the eye chart. I typically use high lighters to read, since it
helps me focus (concentrate) on the text and definately helps upon
reread, since it is much less straining. I have sent an email
allowing for the purchase of two color overlays. I will see if the
order is accepted and if I benefit from these overlays when reading.

Hi Nathan,

What are your symptoms? How long have you had them? Have you seen
doctors for it? What do they say? I know that regular eye doctors
will miss me having Irlen Syndrome. Mine comes from a blunt force
trauma called Post Traumatic Fibromyalgia that only happens from a
physical blunt force trauma.

Hi Jim,

Welcome, and hearing your story is part of why people join this
support group. It's okay to complain a tad as long as long as you are
careful not fall into the "victim" role, and you are not dealing with
serious problems. This is a simple support group and it does not
replace counseling if it is needed. This is a good place to find
friends. How is the weather in Florida? Sorry so late in
responding...just got back from Iowa.

Dear Nathan,  I would urge you to look into the www.irlen.com web site
for additional information about Irlen technology and how it may apply to
you.  Cathie Hay, Irlen diagnostician in Wichita, KS.

Dear Group,

My case manager suspects that I may have Irlen's Syndrome. I have
difficulty when reading and giving people eye contact. I do have eye

I am considering getting Irlen's lenses, since I have always had

Dear Group,

My case manager suspects that I may have Irlen's Syndrome. I have
difficulty when reading and giving people eye contact. I do have eye
strain and since I often only concentrate every two minutes on the
spedometer, I just today got my second speeding ticket.

I am considering getting Irlen's lenses, since I have always had
difficulty giving people eye contact. Maybe it would be helpful in
reading.

Nathan

Hi all just wanted to say hi . dont know yet whether you'll what to
hear it all from me but will tell in small pieces. dont want to
sound like a whiner because of my problems. ok will start my story
tomorrow. last tbi group i belonged to booted me because i held a
different opion from most on the terri thing going on in Florid
where im origianly from.

Hi to everyone, new and old members alike.  It has been way too
quiet in here.  Everyday when I come in and check the messages, I
feel like I'm coming in to a ghost town.  I hope that means that
everyone is doing really well but since we have had quite a few new
members who have never posted anything, I wanted to post and
encourage you all to feel free to post any questions, thoughts, news
or comments that you want to share with the group.  We would love to
hear from you.
Have a great day.
Robin
