New here and need your advice

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

 

Martha introduced me to this group. Thanks Martha.

 

I have a 1 year old son, who has mild hydrocephalus. DO you know of

any cure that would help resolve this problem?? In Allopathy, the

only way is to put a shunt in. But I was wondering if there are

other ways of curing this. I know homeopathy and ayurveda can do

wonders, but I donot know of anyone knowledged in these areas. So,

please help me, if you know of any cure..

 

Thanks.

Dear Mama of this 1 year old son,

I am glad you came out of the closet enough to say this much,

although had I known your concern I'd send you to the ayurvedic

physicians, among other possiblities, as this may be beyond an

member's trainng. I personally do not know what hydrocephalus is,

and we all must be careful not to address it as such, nore can we

legally talk about cures; rather we can talk about supportive

therapies for what is known about organs and tissues etc.

 

So it sounds like some accumulation of ... fluid, I assume in the

brain or cranial cavity as there is this shunting process? If this

is the case, you may be able to gain so much from talking with a

family I know whose baby had significant fluid buildup and pressure

requiring shunting, and turned out she had brain hmm, according to my

rules, rapidly growing malignant accumulation well the diagnosis

medically was cancer and other things. The protocols this family

used were many, and they researched really well. That girl is maybe

16 today, and a very exceptional being. Very exceptionally

intelligent, intuitive, talented. If you care to call I'll share

their phone number in Ashland Oregon.

 

There certainly is other information, probably a wealth, including

with therapeutic grade essential oils available as you keep sharing

about you and your Baby's situation, and keep asking until you are

completely satisfied. I can refer you to someone also who is

experienced with this modality, herbs, et al with successful support

of brain tumors.

 

Are you still nursing? WHat can Baby do/not do? What is your diet

like and what has your post partum recovery been like? What are you

doing for it now? What are the descriptions of this condition? I've

more questions than answers right now to be able to offer you what

information I may have access to. The vaidyas (ayurvedic physicians)

may also be written and also asked this question at

www.ayurveda. But for their protection

also, as well as others I'd suggest rewording to not implicate them

in any practicing medicine w/o a license. Maybe online from India it

doesn't matter, but some of them reside in the US.

 

Wishing You Many Blessings on this Journey;

Martha,

 

Thankyou so much for responding.

I am sorry about the wording in my previous posts, I am not very

familiar with the protocols.

Anycase, I will glad to give you any information about my son, if

that will lead to the right medicine..

He is 15 months now, and he only cruises around holding on to

furniture, walls, hands etc.. He stands maybe for for a minute

without support and sometimes even takes a step or two, but then

falls down. He was quite big when he was born. No, I am not nursing

him anymore. Nursed him till he was 9 months. The postpartum was

very easy. He was a easy baby to care for also. Feeds well and

sleeps well.

About the hydrocephalus, he has aqueductal stenosis. He doesnot have

tumors or didnt have hmm.. We had mutliple MRIs taken, and all of

them show the same amount of fluid. Not sure what that means. He

doesnot have all the typical symptoms of hydro. He doesnt vomit, no

sun setting eyes etc. He doesnt have the shunt. We didnt go for the

surgery, we are still in the " wait and watch " mode.

He was almost on target for all the milestones except the walking..

He rolled over at 5 months, sat independently at 7 months, crawled

at 8.5 months, pulled up at 10 months.

Anycase, if you can recommend any oils that we can massage, or

anybody who can direct us, that would be great.

 

Thanks,

Vallery

 

Dear Vallery;

This is beyond my training, as I said, but I will pass the question up - Hakim

and Adrienne, do you have any familiarity with this kind of thing?
