[QUOTE="totoro, post: 58984, member: 3155"] OK so we are moving at lightening speed with the medications... and because am single Mom this weekend... I have ZERO time to read... trying to catch up on all of the clean up, laundry, re-packing, dead plants, journals etc!!! So psychiatrist3 Difficult Child'd the Clonidine- K was literally passing out around 6-6:30 every night, kind of like- Narcolepsy- out cold for 15 to 30 minutes and then up and going until 7-8 and out again. She fell over at dinner one night on the table... very scary, I took her pulse!!! I know the Prazosin can cause fainting but the first time it happened she hadn't even taken that one yet!!! So we are increasing the Prazosin to 2mg at bedtime- she wet the bed last night... But did not scream all night!!! He wants to start Strattera 10mg after supper each evening... he feels with the Abilify being "somewhat" of a mood stabilizer...(I realize that is debatable) this might help with her extreme hyperness, inability to focus and that Strattera touches anxiety in some kids... I am OK with this because we will be at the psychiatric hospital. But I am still nervous. Any other BiPolar (BP) kids try this??? He still wants to add a Mood Stabilizer, I think he is just trying options right now. He has mentioned Neurontin and Gabitril. Her drooling has increased and toungue thrust also since we increased the Abilify also... I just realized we started her first medication December 13th 2006- we are on our 10th one... Good news though my mother in law kept asking what she could do to help and husband finally said, well it has been over a 100 degrees in Spokane lately and it is supossed to stay hot... the hotel they are staying at is a dump!!! You could help by getting them into a hotel with a pool!!! They did!!!! Wahoo!!! K loves to swim... and it has a gym. [/QUOTE]
