Here we go again!
So the latest with difficult child 2 now that psychiatrist called me a few minutes ago... he feels that we ARE seeing some hypomania based on the obsessive toothbrush incident in the store, the frenetic cleaning of his room last night, the intense worry over certain things, all since pulling Risperdal because of dystonia.
He believes the stimulant is probably making things worse, and that Depakote is not enough on it's own.
And clearly, the clonazepam won't do a thing for stabilizing his mood.
So now he's advocating Seroquel, and felt pretty confident that we won't have any issues with dystonia like he did on Risperdal, Abilify and Zyprexa.
He asked me to check in with the neuro to get his blessing, and is going to try to squeeze us in Monday morning to see difficult child 2 for himself and make sure this is the right tact before prescribing.
Meanwhile, he's to come off stimulants completely for the weekend.
So what can we expect with Seroquel?
