Hello all--
The good news is that difficult child has FINALLY been referred to a new psychiatrist--this one at a university hospital that does neurospych testing. YAY!!!
The bad news is the new docs don't feel they want to do any testing--at least not yet. They have started by talking about parenting techiniques and personality clashes and what works for some kids doesn't work for others etc...
But after our first session and hearing about difficult child's rages, the doctor prescribed Vistaril--which she explained was an anti-histamine--and she said the medication would help difficult child regain self-control and calm her down during a rage.
Anyone have any experience with Vistaril?
Does your difficult child take it for rages and has it helped?
Thanks for any info!
