[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 187059"] I am apprehensive about the neurologist. He really did nothing for us except charge outrageous prices. He did prescribe topomax for about a year with no affect. That is when he said there was no need to return. I am also concerned if any of these drugs stunt growth. He is already the smallest in his class height wise. Also I do not see any onset of puberty yet and all his friends have shot up and their voices have changed. Then again wondering if the onset of puberty could be a cause of the frequent headaches. But....in elementary school and ever since a very young age, sounds such as clock ticking, fire alarms, buzzers at fast food restaurants, flourescent lights flickering..all bothered him extremely. Sporting events he would stop and cover his ears near the end of quarters. He has also suffered headaches frequently during school for the past 3 years. As far as Aleve..the ER doctor did suggest that. He also said if he takes that he would be stuck for 12 hours unable to take any other medication. So if it didn't work he was out of luck. [/QUOTE]
