related harm and/or injury. After our
failed Invega Experiment (2012), I would like to commit to Clozapine for the
long run. In addition, I would like to
titrate my own dose to avoid intense discomfort and falling down. My current titration that maximizes my
personal safety is as follows:

Programming Language (DSPL)
The Mental Health Services Act
(MHSA) and associated literature contain what we here at MSG have named The
Darrell Steinberg Programming Language.
Though it came into effect Circa 2004, the true power of it has yet to
be demonstrated. Still too many
providers, consumers, family members, as well as others committed to Health
& Human Services remain unawares.
With our current readership we feel our impact will remain small.

Segue to Experimentation - Segue
– Invega – Brief
-
How is it that we gave in to the
Invega Experiment?
Basically Clozapine side effects
can be so miserable and scary (panic) that Mr. Torkelson voluntarily agreed to
further experimentation. Clozapine also
has the risk of being pulled from his system immediately. Because mister Torkelson requires Clozapine
for health promoting sleep he has up until 2017 entertained a replacement for
emergency purposes. We will continue to
address experimentation with other reports.
-
Clozapine Contingency - Fatality
This plan cannot be completely
laid to rest. At this time we do not
have a perfected Clozapine Contingency Plan (CCP). Note contingencies cut in immediately if our Complete Blood Count
(CBC) blood values tank setting in motion not being able to have it prescribed
anymore. Historically, our lab results
for more that half the year our CBC results indicate elevated cell counts. In a manner elevated values are protective
about Agranulocytosis.

20171214-TH: Important Note
[REWRITE]
Paradox: We DBA Tork
Reconstruction Company (TRC) started this document of TP during the summer of
2001. Back then we failed to finish it
and run it by our Kaiser supporters.
TRC really didn’t need it until the summer of 2004. Back in 2001 we were being treated for
double (depression complicated by ahedonia), a sleep disorder, and chronic
fatigue. As of 2014 we DBA Mentalation
Solutions Group (MSG) believe we are being treated for schizoaffective disorder
even though our primary complaints indicate: Anxiety, sleep disorder, chronic
fatigue, and traumatic stress disorder.
During the summer of 2014 our doctor, Dr. BS Lee, reviewed the latest
incarnation of our TP. He did not
support our pursuing our TP driven health care tool. The TP concept is a hard sell.
We hope it will help us avoid irreversible actions by those vested to
help us.
-
20171209-SAT: Paradox Update
Going backwards some of the
actions taken by TRC and MSG’s primary family support person (LAK) in 2012 we
still have to reverse. All of them will
not be reversed (spiritual surrender).
I another process about advanced planning our trusted nephew is
beginning take over LAK’s responsibilities.
With her we don’t do well sharing documentation. Sleep Disorder is now our biggest
concern. Last go round in 2012 we were
taken off Clozapine for replacement with Invega. After not sleeping for three nights in a row our Principal had to
be admitted for acute psychiatric inpatient care. This change off Clozapine cost us about $30,000 in
hospitalization fees. Our intent for
maintaining transparency by sharing this document is to help others and us
Prevent Catastrophic Loss (PCL).

Ambien (*)
Doctor David Royce Chandler (DRC)
On Routine Titrations
After stabilizing our sleep about
Ambien for some odd nine (9) years doctor Chandler in a role as chief audited
in totality Kaiser Permanente’s Orange County case folders. Most likely as a results DRC decided to not
renew our Ambien Prescription. We were
taking Ambien as it had been prescribe for nine (9) years. We were approved to ingest up to one (1)
tabled PRN per day. Although other
factors such as Family Conflict impinged on our sleep, without Ambien, we
almost immediately began losing sleep.
Eventually, we ended up in the Hospital for what we call: Episode
2004. Doctor Deutsch (MD-Psychiatry)
taught us for an effective and safe reverse titration no less than one month is
required and stepping down is wise.
