[QUOTE="Just keep swimming, post: 105516, member: 211"] Hi family, I've not been around much, but you have all been in my thoughts and prayers. We have been dealing with an unmedicated Aly for the last week! As you know, we moved to a new county this past September. So, that means all new docs. Had to wait 3 months for an appointment with with the new psychiatrist, that appointment is this afternoon, finally!!!!!!!!! Her psychiatrist from the other county was refilling her medications, but as of last week refused stating we are out of their county and her case was closed and just "go to the emergency room" if no one else here will refill. New psychiatrist couldn't refill as she has not seen her yet. Pediatrician is great but feels uncomfortable prescribing psychiatric medications. The main one Aly needs is Trileptal, as she is having multiple seizures daily. pediatrician said "take her to the ER". So, we took her to the ER. They gave her one dose of medication while she was there, called the new psychiatrist to get an new Rx and the new psychiatrist denied it till we see her today. I find all of this incredibly ridiculous and dangerous for my daughter. Those of you who know of Aly's history, know that this most likely will cause enough problems for her that she will end up hospitalized. I have kept her home from school as she is dizzy, has a headache and is having a hard time concentrating. Her seizures are I guess what you can Abscense seizures, she just looks "blank" for a little while, sometimes she does alot of lip smacking or swallowing, that is what I am seeing the most. Then she is exhausted, she has napped alot in the last few days. Anyways, have a good thought for us about 2pm west coast time today that I don't go in there blasting the psychiatrist with both barrels!! Shaking my head, Vickie [/QUOTE]
