I dont even know how to describe this. There is something very off about Sammy. i have noticed it for about a week. It is a bunch of little things but I think something is going on and I am not sure how to figure it out. husband is very worried to.
I will try to describe it: He seems to be going through a downward spiral behaviorally. When he is having his bad days, we have noticed that he seems lathargic one minute and running like a maniac or tantruming the next minute. He also does not fall asleep easily on those days. His eating habits are always weird so we cant go by this. He has developed a strange fear of cake...yes I said cake. He also started making this very stressed out look on his face. Some of the time I think he is playing with looks and others I think it is real. He has been having explosive tantrums that are more severe than the normal ones. He was at the dr mon. and tues. He does have a sinus infection which he has every other week during allergy season so that never bothers him and they tested him tuesday morning for Hypoglycemia which was negative. We are waiting for reports from the neurologist so we can get him into the Mayo Clinic in Minn. But we wont get in for at least 5 months so...
I dont know who to call or even the slightest Idea of what to do about this. I dont thing he does this in school. Today I picked him up and he was sitting in a time out which is very unusual for him and none of the teachers had put him there so I am assuming that it was a sympathetic time out. However, Sammy is insisting that he did hurt this child but it is unreliable info. I am going to ask his teachers if any of the other kiddos are making that kind of face or if it really is a stress/anxiety thing.
Other than that, I just have no idea what to think about this!
