I'm ARh- and both my husbands were ARh+.  I've had three children.  After the first one, I was given something called Anti D Serum so that the next baby would be OK.  Same thing happened after my second child.  All 3 babies were fine.  This was free (in the UK - thank goodness for the National Health Service).  Don't know what happens elsewhere.

Most of the information in here is correct. Please do not self diagnose yourself with this disease however; it will make it hard to get an offical diagnosis. The only way to have it offically diagnosed is via Endoscopy with Duodenal Biopsy to confirm via villi. There are lab titers that can be drawn such as, TTG, IGA, IGG and Serum IGA to determine if you are in danger of having this disease. The TTG is the most common indicator of the disease. The IGG can be falsely positive in up to 3/4 of the population and even higher in other races. Prometheus Labs out of CA does a celiac panel that is pretty popular amongst providers; but can be spendy for the patient. Prometheus will also do a celiac gene test, to see if the pt has the gene present to have the disease. The Gliadin antibodies are the strongest lab markers today for tracing the possibility of having the disease. Also, Celiac Disease is also VERY common in pt's with Down Syndrome.

Approximately 25% of untreated patients with Tetralogy of Fallot die within the first year of life, 40% by 4 years, 70% by 10 years, and 95% by 40 years. I don't think that would be considered rare.

It varies by location from a low of about 7.6% up to 8.8% or so.  If you post the location, I can give you a more accurate answer.

Yes, but there is an increased risk of their child also having Down Syndrome. Sometimes very mentally retarded people are sterile though, so if this is a question pertaining to a certian someone you know, they'd need to get a check up to find out for SURE.

He or she might be lacking something in his or her diet. Too much salt/sodium is not good. You should discuss this with your pediatrition.

Morbidity is about 3 per cent? I am guessing? but there is a lot of problems from the surgery. It does not work if you continue to not take care of yourself. you need to watch your diet for protein and vitamins, some people develop colon and small intestine problems.probably per centage of trouble is about 25-30 per cent?maybe higher? maybe  someone knows the real numbers? my wife has had a lot of problems and she had it done in 2002. and has had 2 bowel obstructions.

I think it mainly depends on the person and what other problems they have. I know in my case when I got below 40% I was pretty much useless and really couldn't do much until I got back up over 45%. I'm currently around 65% and (for me) am somewhat normal<g>.

What is Apert Syndrome?\nApert Syndrome is a condition involving distortions of the head and face and webbing of the hands and feet. Characteristics include:\n\nskull - short from back to front, wide on the sides, and overly tall (craniosynostosis) \neyes - slightly side-spaced, bulging, the eyelids tilt downward abnormally at the sides \nface - the mid-face has a sunken-in appearance, the upper jaw slopes backward, lower teeth project in front of the upper teeth \nhands and feet - webbing and/or fusion including finger bones, toe bones, and joints of fingers and toes \nWhy did this happen?\nThere is no link between anything the mother did or did not do while she was pregnant and the occurrence of Apert Syndrome. Doctors believe Apert Syndrome occurs when a gene mutates early in the pregnancy.\n\n\nWill this happen to children I have in the future?\nThe chances of having another child with Apert Syndrome is almost non-existent if both parents are unaffected. If one parent has Apert Syndrome, there is a 50% chance that his/her children will have Apert Syndrome.\n\n\nWhat kinds of problems could my child have?\nIn addition to the physical characteristics common to Apert Syndrome, your child may have the following problems:\n\n\ncleft palate - about 30% of children with Apert Syndrome are affected \nslower learning rates and abilities - about 50% of children with Apert Syndrome are affected; however, as the children grow older, they often catch up with others \nvision problems caused by imbalance of the eye muscles \nrecurrent ear infections which can cause hearing loss \nnoisy breathing - the smaller nose and airway passages may make breathing difficult \nhyperactive sweat glands may cause your child to sweat a lot, especially while sleeping \nproblems with acne are more likely, especially during puberty\n\nWill my child need surgery?\nDepending on the severity of Apert Syndrome, your child may have some or all of the following surgeries:\n\n\ntotal skull reshaping to correct the tower skull problems at three to four months of age \nfrontal-orbital advancement to increase space within the skull and the size of both orbits (the part of the skull with holds the eyeball) at three to four months of age \nmid-facial advancement - usually prior to starting school \nfacial bi-partition to widen the upper jaw, derotate the orbits, and to narrow the upper face \nosteotomy (cutting through the bone of the upper and lower jaw to correct further problems usually during the teen years \nrhinoplasty - plastic surgery of the nose \ngenioplasty - plastic surgery of the chin or cheek \neyelid surgery to correct the abnormal downward tilt \nseparation of the fingers and/or toes\n\nNew advances and procedures concerning Apert Syndrome are constantly being developed. Be an advocate for your child!\n\n\nHow do I get help for my child?\nYour child should be treated by a qualified craniofacial medical team at a craniofacial center. Currently, FACES has information on thirty-two craniofacial teams located in 20 states, the District of Columbia, and Canada. This is by no means a comprehensive list of all the craniofacial teams. Please contact FACES for details.\n\n\nAm I alone?\nNo! There are many families and organizations who will be glad to talk with you and help you with information and support.

My son is asymptomatic. He has no current pain. But he has had two major abdominal surgeries (one experimental)  which required a Pain Management team. I believe he used fentanyl after one surgery and a personally controlled dilaudid after the other. He doesn't really like being hooked up to the pain meds and quickly weaned himself by yanking them out. Anyway, he was originally diagnosed with stage IV high grade desmoplastic small round cell tumor (rare, aggressive sarcoma that predominately affects young males) with multiple large and small tumors in abdomen, spleen, large and small intestine, liver, chest wall, lympth nodes, and right diaphragm. After 18 months of chemotherapy, debulking surgeries, and intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemoperfusion he was in remission for 8 months.

It can happen at any age although it is most common in the elderly, because they have decreased bowel motility and tend not to take in a lot of fluids.  They would have to remove the obstruction surgically
