Ok- I will try to make this as short as possible
difficult child is now 11 yrs. old and about 85 pounds-- was on 30 mg of foccalin a day (not XR) in June-- I have been slowly taking him off this summer- he is down to 5mg a day
ok- here is the crazy question-- my difficult child seems LESS nasty -- yesterday we went on a hike --me difficult child husband-- he was absolutely GREAT-- now I know I let him have his video games in the car on the way up and on the way home- and as we tooled around the poconos (driving)-- yes he still is impulsive-touching things in stores--I need to keep reminding him--BUT he did not get angry with me or ODD --ish--ie... I tell him not to touch and he touches anyway or does something else even more annoying cause he is angry. He was actually TRYING to control himself.
Could nastiness/being angry all the time a side effect of the foccalin?
OH GOD I hope so-- cause I like this difficult child WAY better. I can handle hyper activity/impulsiveness way better than nastiness!
What do you think?
