Bogus Study: Drug Repurposing Candidates To Treat Core Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder

Study that I can drive a truck through says these 4 drugs are the next cure

In this study, the people conducting the study were testing Loperamide or branded Imodium in the United States to “treat autism.” They were trying to treat “social communication deficits” instead of accepting that the autistic community has its own set of norms and rules for social communication. Rationale of Study There are no medications currently approved for the treatment of social…

Update

Little one’s update:

- expansive vocabulary. he has learnt to say many words that I have lost count. He recently started saying “q” for “thank you” and ‘kum” for “you’re welcome” among others.

- he still cries when we drop him off to daycare but I know he cries for a little while and settles down after I or hubby left.

- his fave dessert of all time: cookies and ice-cream

- a little picky with food but unsurprising because he knows his dislikes and likes VERY WELL now.

- he enjoys playing with his Duplos, toy fruits/food but barely play with his massive Brio train set. 

- Loves the iPad because of “Little Baby Bum” and “Bert & Ernie Great Adventure”. Blippi is no longer a favourite. 

- Daddy has begun to drop little one off at and pick him up from daycare on my days off. This is a huge deal because he used to be nervous just thinking about it but now it seems like he has it under control and he, himself, is very proud of it. LOL.

- he was infected with Hand, Foot, Mouth disease and twice with the flu in one month (in February). January and February were worst months for little one when it comes to getting sick. 

My update:

- I had the flu, too. Hubby on the other hand, had HFMD from the little one and he suffered more than the little one did. Oh boy, did He SUFFER. Thankfully, he was on a week’s vacation so his work days didn't get affected and he HAD TO rest. I didn't get infected with HFMD and I hope I am immunised against it. I have never gotten infected with it throughout my whole life. Touch wood. Hope it stay that way. 

- I had to take bromocriptine again. I went to see the gynaecologist for the yearly check uo and my prolactin was very high. My last check up indicated that my prolactin level has gone down but I still need to continue taking the bromocriptine, 

- i am back at work and i still feel out of it. I guess I still need time to get used to the routines. what I am super happy is about getting money at the end of the month. 

- will be travelling back to hometown in a month’s time and I already made an exhaustive list of things to bring. I also referred to previous blog about stuff i wish I had not brought and things I would have down differently. That s the awesome thing about blogging.

4) PROLACTINOMA current status.

And we’re off from the neurologist and onto the endocrinologist… Finally have the diagnosis! After 6 rounds of blood tests where the vampires took 8-10 vials of blood from me each time we finally found out how to treat what was going on in my body. We knew that I had a pituitary tumor however it took another year and half to pin point which hormones were imbalanced.

They found that I had excess cortisol levels and an extremely high prolactin count. The prolactin diagnosis is where it got confusing… The main symptom that entails is the production of breast milk. I had NONE of that. However my breasts always had the capability to give Dolly Parton a run for her money so I thought it was natural for them to feel tender and heavy. I am thankful that I no longer have that problem. I now feel more modest and ladylike in my clothing.

The other major symptoms of Prolactinoma in my case are as follows:

-no menstrual cycle -low sex drive -depression -anxiety -mood swings of Menopausal Status -the Britney Spears like stress level -memory span of a Golden Girl -insomnia -weight gain -chronic migraines -vomiting -dizziness

I was started on Bromocriptine as a form of treatment. So far it has done wonders. I have gone from 170lbs down to 129lbs in just four months. The migraines are not an everyday occurrence anymore however when they do occur they are worse and I end up in the ER vomiting and convulsing with continuous shakes. Now when they get so bad I have a tendency to lose all feeling on the left side and feel paralyzed with this cold tingling sensation throughout my arm and leg. After 6 long years of no period I have had 3 cycles in 6 months. However the first one was horrid and lasted 32 days strait at which time they had to treat me for my temporary anemia with Vitamin B12.

But with all things considered I’m trying my best to keep my chin up under these less than desirable circumstances. While I find it heartbreaking that I am still in school and that it’s taking so long since I’ve spent the last few years forced to place the thing that keeps me happy on hold and I would give just about anything to fulfill my desperate need to relocate but until I can get my health to a point where I can stand on my one two feet alone I’ll be grounded for just awhile longer. In the meantime I am back in school and doing well once again! I count my blessings that this isn’t something that has the ability to kill me (I think not at least) and that I now have a good excuse to go clothes shopping since NONE of my clothes fit me anymore.

I have a lot to try and wrap my head around and not a whole lot of time to do so. My body has been going through some drastic changes and though my health has gotten a little better it’s been making me go through a bit of an identity crisis. The things that I loved about myself are altering every day to the point where I wake up asking those oh so familiar questions… Who am I now? Who will I be in the morning? Why is this happening to me? When will it stop?

I can see you coming, AF! 13DPO

TMI update: I saw brown CM on my panty liner yesterday. This is the typical CM I see every time my period is about to show up. I am so disappointed but… At least my cycle will be shorter this time.

I have read on numerous forums and blogs and seen vlogs of women who have experiences with bromocriptine and it usually takes 3-6 cycles or months to get pregnant. This coming April 28th will be my second month on bromo and when my period comes, then it will be my third cycle on it.

Let’s see.

I am also curious about Hubby's SA on this coming Friday. Hope everything goes well!

Bad and good news at CD 3

Bad news: I am still not pregnant as AF appeared 3 days ago.

Good news: bromocriptine works and i ovulated which then led to my first period after 97 days of absence.

So hubs and I are looking forward to trying our best to conceive again.

I started bromocriptine on Feb 28th and i ovulated about two weeks after taking the first pill. My bbt temp rose and this is also a first for me! For the past one year since I started ttc I have been tracking my temps and never got that post ovulation higher temp until this cycle.

Before AF came I was so hopeful that I could be pregnant but then it came and my first reaction was not one of relief but rather, sadness.

And I ranted at my husband again for not being pregnant. Poor hubs.

He just kept quiet.

Anyway, I am over the sadness and am so motivated to keep on tracking my temp and see if I will have the textbook 14 days follicular phase as I had 14 days luteal phase before AF came. Let’s see.

I probably will not track at the same time everyday as 2 week-spring break is here. I tend to wake up later than 5.20 (time i usually wake up on a working day) so let’s see.

Heading to the gynae office to get a new prescription for bromocriptine. I am quite nervous about Hubby’s semen analysis on April 26th. Wish us luck! Here’s to another cycle.
