Chloe The Kinesthic Learner. How Her Health Issues Interfered with Her Learning Style

Let's review where we came from. Chloe was born a floppy infant and needed rehabilitation help reaching her ability to walk , talk and all growth stages and has low tone issues. Chloe always comprehended the written word better then the spoken word. Now the spoken and written word comprehension are almost equal.
Working with a neurologist who is very helpful. We started to try different medications and talked about what worked and what did not work. Then I started typing up a daily log to show the Neurologist how complicated it was. After doing the log for a year, we now see it gave the neurologist a picture of how the medications are working also.
Chloe has Fibromylgia like symptoms since birth which greatly interfered with her physical developed. We have found nerve issues in her forehead and left side of her neck.We check in with the Neurologist and she reviews our progress every 3 months. Chloe has a secondary issue and we are not sure if it was caused by the nerve issues or it is a second problem completely different. She is on Neurologist prescribed doses of Iron, D3 and B12 that she may have to take daily for the rest of her life.
I am really glad I did a log because it shows us the recovery she is making.

A person less anxious and smiling more, due to a fabric bandage over a pain patch?

We know that Chloe has a nerve problem on the left side of neck that effected the development of her left shoulder. For a few years with her neurologist, I have been discussing the left side of Chloe's forehead and the pain she has from there. We were wondering if it was deferred pain from somewhere else or actual from the forehead.
We have had a very cold February and I took cell phone pictures of the swollen red area that emerged on her forehead and sent them to her neurologist. She thought it might be a reaction to the prescription pain ointment that she prescribed for Chloe. I told her that the medicine rub on the spot calms it down and actual had cell phone pictures of it doing that. She admittedly wanted more details of what helps and what triggers the redness to appear and what works to calm it down or prevent it. So we are trying to get the information together for our next appointment. The pain patch moved over to where the redness surfaced and the fabric bandage keeps the area warm and away from air.
So far we know what works keeping the area with a pain patch and a bandage over protects it from the air and cold. Molly, who works with her at the YMCA, said at the last session Chloe was all smiles threw out the session and even laughed a couple of times. Chloe seems more in control of her emotions and actually able to talk through disagreements better then without the patch.
So we are working with the Neurologist to identifying the problem or problems and if there is something we can besides what we are already doing.
