[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 382963, member: 8831"] i dont blame you one bit for venting, and i think your train of thought is right on---i'm shocked that any doctor would blow off your concern and refer you to a psychiatrist. not to say, of course, that a seizure disorder and a mental health issue can't co-exist because they most certainly can, but i'd personally be looking very closely at the diazapam too, since that is the change that brought on the onset of symptoms. certainly there are other medication choices that can be tried to tease out the symptoms, if any (that arent diazapam related). i'd be looking for another [B]neurological[/B] opinion asap...are you maybe near a major childrens hospital? i know its hard to get an appointment, but if you have a good relationship with your pediatrician maybe he can intervene and get a faster appointment for you. just remember--"if it doesn't sound right, it probably isn't"...go with your gut.
