[QUOTE="djsaxo, post: 223760, member: 6505"] Thanks to all who replied. Tomorrow we have our 1 week follow-up appointment with the doctor and I'm not sure what to tell him....is it working or not, well, I don't know?!?! First couple of days he seemed so out of it, just tired, too tired to argue. Then yesterday he seemed more grumpy, just cranky and irritable and back to hitting and being more oppositional. Today we had a full meltdown when he refused to put his cup in the sink. There was a time-out and threats of spanking on my part, then shoe throwing, lots of screaming and the a wrap up performance of stripping down to his underwear to top it all off....finally my threatening to spank him with a rolled up magazine got him to pick up the cup he'd earlier hurled across the room and put it in the sink. I know what you're thinking, "rolled up magazine?!?!?!" ***? Well, it worked! Before the medications he wouldn't have flinched, he seems to show some fear of punishment now at least. AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I mean, is he doing better than he was a week ago, sorta, but not really. Was I looking for a miracle pill? Perhaps. Will I ever have a "normal" child? I'll post results from the doctor's appointment tomorrow. :frowny: [/QUOTE]
