[QUOTE="Just keep swimming, post: 109756, member: 211"] Not much to update as yet. psychiatrist has been in contact with me several times, gathering more history, etc. It gets tiring saying "that's ALL in Aly's parent report, which is in her chart!" He did say that since it is the week of Xmas, things might move a little slower than usual, with getting the needed evaluations and tests. I asked about her dissasociated states and he or the staff have not yet seen that, they have only seen her panic attacks and anxiety levels that are through the roof. I said she is holding it in so tightly I am not sure they will see them, he agreed. Also said the dreaded words "we are just an acute psychiatric hospital, if we feel she needs it, she may get transferred to a more long term facility that can accomodate doing a slow medication wash etc." Not that I wouldn't want that to happen, just wish it could happen where she is. The other hospital is 3 hours from here, my daughter's place, and 5 hours from home. When we visited last night she had several panic attacks, begged us to take her home, etc. It is so heart wrenching it is very difficult. We will go earlier today and see if it is better during the day. pediatrician neurologist is supposed to do an evaluation sometime this next week and will probably order some testing. psychiatrist is not worried about her liver enzymes, said it is only slightly elevated. So, not really anything new to report, other than it looks like she will definetly be spending Christmas in the psychiatric hospital. Sad, but our reality at this time. husband is here with us till tonight which helps with Jayme but this tiny apartment will get old in a hurry! But I thank God my daughter lives here, cannot imagine being in a hotel right now. Will update again when I know more. Thank you all for your kind words, prayers and support. You have no idea how much they help!! Hugs and love, Vickie [/QUOTE]
