Hello everyone I am an occupational therapy student also just like marie and tiffany hi guys we actually go to school. To answer the question whats the difference between OT and PT is OT wants you and tries to help you reengage in your prior occupations like school, work, selfcare. We even care about the past lesuire activites that interest our clients. Pt wants you to build strength and stamina, however, getting you back into your roles as a student, parent, husband or wife etc... is not their complete comcern. In OT its the basis of all our intereventions. does that help? what do you think girls.

Hi Everyone! I'm new to this group. I am currently studying to become an Occupational Therapist. I just wanted to introduce myself, and see your perspectives. Let me know if you have any questions about occupational therapy and I would be happy to answer. I'm very interested in what everyone has to say. -Mare, OTS On Mon, Jan 19, 2009 at 1:51 PM, andrea murray <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, Yes I took baclofen for a long time when I was in High School. I have CP and the doctor I was seeing then was for the drug for people with CP. In 1993 I broke my neck and the had to go off it. I didn't have any side effect. In away I wish I was back on it, because I have really bad -muscle spasms..

I took this drug right after my accident in '88, but that was 20 yrs. ago and my memory did not log any recollection of the side effects. Below is a news link; a doctor claims it worked for his addiction to alcohol, it got me thinking of changing my spasm medicine. I do not suffer from alcohol addiction; but I take diazapam for spasms, and was going to talk to my doc about baclofen for the spasms. I was just recently diagnosed with inherited Cardiomyopathy; so I was wondering about any cardio side effects as well, which I will find out when I have another echo cardiogram next week. http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?rn=3906861&cl=11605466&ch=4226723&src=news Tim c5 c6WhoopieKat.com A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
