OK, doctor still not really feeling the need for more testing. I ask for a full evaluation and get asked what I'm wanting. Is there some more specific name that I'm missing? I said a full psychological/neurological profile. Why? *headdesk* Let me think... because she reacts so oddly to so many classes of medications that something is being missed, that's why. doctor also still saying she can't possibly be Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) because she met all her early milestones (so why do so many Aspies not get diagnosis'd until teens or later? she had no answer for that).
She's changing the clonidine to Kapvay (same thing but in an extended release tablet). She's keeping her on the Abilify and the Topamax, but the Topamax dose is getting split into two smaller doses instead of one big dose. She also wants to add Trileptil (she wanted kiddo on Tegretal but I nixed that because of the health issues it can bring).
Not too impressed with the Kapvay thus far this evening, it sure isn't knocking her out like the clonidine did (which was why she was on the clonidine, because without it she's nocturnal).
