Bob;
When confronted with the suggestion that a patient may possibly be exhibiting sign of a factitious disorder, the wise clinician will retreat into a posture of abstract defence of the patient, rather than one of overt hostility or defensiveness, Bob. The caregiver role is predicated upon trust and intimate knowledge of an individual's condition, and the patient, by virtue of the very nature of the doctor-patient relationship, can expect a certain degree of advocacy from their caregivers. However, subverting this trust, either intentionally, or by conversion, perverts this relationship. Furthermore, caregivers have a second duty to the greater good of society as well. When confronted with evidence of malingering in his patient, the prudent clinician will agree to the suggestion that this be included in the differential diagnosis of his patient, while at the same time maintaining abstract defence of the patient. Since malingering is a legal issue, the ultimate determination has to be left for others, not the caregivers or medical experts to decide.

I also suspect there are many other guys out there using "Stuart" their handle Bob. Here, some of aren't too internet literate, and setting up usenet accounts is not something some of us are too interested in, although some have their own email. Generally we use community email at the office. I happen to "home-office" a lot also. In any event, what the hell difference does it make to you anyhow?

No Laura, seizures are relatively common. I would get to the doctor ASAP, and make it be known your symptoms
Good luck, and all the best getting through this tough spell. You'll come out OK.

What a load of crap. There is nothing *at all* indicating evidence of malingering on Laura's part. Rather, all evidence is completely to the contrary, as was my warning about keeping it that way. Seems the issue here really is malpractice, not malingering. http://tinyurl.com/bjoh5

Bob, I think you have grossly misunderstood our conversation. No one here suggested anyone was malingering. We were discussing the subject as a result of your comment regarding legal redress presumably against manufacturers of defective meds. You made a comment regarding pressure that potentially would "psyche" you inti a worse condition. That's what led to the discussion regarding factitious disorders, Bob It had nothing to do with Laura, remember.
Just to refresh your memory: Here's the original statement you made;
"My own experience of legal redress involved tremendous overt and covert pressure to psyche myself into an even worse condition, merely to increase the payout (and legal expenses.)"
That's what we were discussing.
Now Bob, as an aside, you have told just about everyone in the group to "shut the fuck up" or other abusive and derogarory remarks at one time or another. You MAY have an anger management problem requiring counselling, Bob. Might want to check it out. Just a suggestion, mind you...

You head is obviously too far up your arse for you to realise that malingering is about a faked condition, while a worse condition is a worse condition.
Given my reply was to Laura, perhaps the point was a tad obscure for a "doctor" of your persuasion, so I'll repeat it. "Be warned though. Money may be able to maintain health, but can money compensate for health?"

Bob, you wrote "My own experience of legal redress involved tremendous overt and covert pressure to psyche myself into an even worse condition, merely to increase the payout (and legal expenses.)"
So, if I understand you correctly, what you are saying is that someone (your lawyer) somehow attempted to influence your concious/subconcious mind into voluntarily/involuntarily psychosomatically creating an actually worse condition than you would have otherwise experienced had you not gone through the legal redress process? Say, were you actually aware of the pressure at the time, or is this all in hindsight? Either way, Bob, it sounds like you were targeted to be a victim of an excellent hypnotist, or you were deemed mentally ill at the time by your attorney, or it could be one of the more creative rationalizations for malingering I've ever heard.
Help me out here, Bob. Call me stupid. I don't fully understand what you were getting at.
> Given my reply was to Laura, perhaps the point was a tad obscure for > a "doctor" of your persuasion, so I'll repeat it. "Be warned though. > Money may be able to maintain health, but can money compensate for > health?"
How can money compensate for "health" Bob?. It can help in assisting disabled persons fund mobility, buy prescriptions and help recoup lost earning power due to disability etc. But I knew what you meant.

Sounds like this is one thing you have excelled at telling others to do, on a fairly regular basis, Bob

Telling people they are stupid or to "fuck off' seems to be a talent of yours whcih I recognize fully, Bob. But you seem incapable of clarifying what you meant by this pressure exerted upon you to psyche yourself into an actual worse actual condition. I don't get it... Please explain what you meant by that? Are you suggesting you suffered from conversion hysteria?

Jeez, Stuart, off coarse, you don't get it, and do need some help! Weaving this thread from your medical proclamations to hysteria has obviously got you nowhere.
You could always go put your proverbial finger in your proverbial dyke, and pay that malpractice insurance.

Sorry if I embarrassed you Bob, or aroused suspicion surrounding an outstanding legal claim. I couldn't help but notice, in your message above, you suddenly added "Brinker" as your last name. Your handle says Robert McGregor. No problem, Bob, My Usenet handle Stuart has been used in araa by a colleague. He originally changed the display name to 'al', then I used 'fred', then back to 'Stuart", then things got mixed up because I forgot to change it once upon a time, then I used to go to rec.aviation.pilots, and that left more google stuff, so,... I don't think you need worry about being found out if that's any concern. I hope not.
Now give me your best Trailer Park Boys "home-made" fuck-you...:) One for the road, Bob..C.mon;;) friends??

Symptoms typically begin 1 to 3 days after cessation of drug use and peak at 5 to 6 days, but may occur later with sedative-hypnotics that have long half lives.
Administration of flumazenil may result in abrupt appearance of symptoms including convulsions. In this case, the withdrawal syndrome resolves rapidly as the effect of flumazenil diminishes.
Manifestations include seizures, drug craving, dysphoria, headache, insomnia, anxiety, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, muscle weakness, tachycardia and tremor. Agitation and confusion may progress to delirium, disorientation, hallucinations.
Seizures are a frequent presenting symptom and may commence up to 7 or 8 days following cessation of the sedative-hypnotic.
Arterial blood gases Blood and other cultures as indicated CPK CT scan head and lumbar puncture, if indicated ECG Serum electrolytes, urea, creatinine, glucose Toxicological screening
TREATMENT
In severe cases, treatment of convulsions takes priority.
General symptomatic and supportive care is very important and includes reassurance and provision of a calm environment.
Clinical features may abate with replacement of the sedative or hypnotic drug or by substitution with a similar sedative-hypnotic such as:
Phenobarbitone 60 to 120 mg orally and repeat every hour until symptoms of withdrawal resolve.
Diazepam 20 mg orally and then 10 mg every hour until symptoms of withdrawal resolve.
Once the patient has been stabilised, gradual drug withdrawal can be undertaken.
CLINICAL COURSE AND MONITORING
In severe cases, death may occur in the absence of adequate treatment.
Duration of the withdrawal syndrome depends on the half-life of the agent and/or that of any active metabolites. Careful observation is required during that period. Adequate nutritional and fluid intake should be ensured. Appropriate social and psychological support is an essential component of medical management.
LONG-TERM COMPLICATIONS
Social and psychological problems.
