[QUOTE="klmno, post: 151543, member: 3699"] Well, I called this am and reported my concerns. psychiatrist calls back and says difficult child is calm and stable and staff reports from weekend just indicate quietness and being guarded. So, he is being discharged today. I did ask and psychiatrist agreed, to increase the seroquel dosage instead of leaving difficult child on the "starter" dose since he won't be seeing his regular psychiatrist for 2 1/2 weeks. The strangest thing- psychiatrist was saying that blood test are revealing fluctuation in thyroid (something- [I]English is his second language and I didn't understand)[/I] psychiatrist says, difficult child informed him that this happens all the time with him so not to worry about it. psychiatrist says, ok, well it is only a very small amount so I guss it isn't a big deal. Now, I haven't even heard of this coming up with difficult child so I KNOW difficult child hasn't heard anything about it before today and he sat there and winged it enough to convince this psychiatrist that he knew his thyroid levels fluctuated a little.....I'll be having a conversation with regular psychiatrist about this one. Oh- whatever the thyroid thing was, the psychiatrist said it went from 0.9 to 1.0 and he didn't like to see it over 1.0 in kids so he just wanted it to be watched to make sure it doesn't go higher. Anyone know what this means and if I should be concerned a little or a lot? [/QUOTE]
