[QUOTE="ready2run, post: 432067, member: 11339"] his episodes are off and on although sometimes it seems like they are all the time because he gets set off so easily that he spends most of his time in that mode. i don't know if it's really the withdrawls or if this is just him unmedicated because frankly he has problems with destroying things and hitting people on a regular basis even when he is medicated. he is just so argumentative nothing anyone can do or say is right to him. even when he is between episodes he still argues with everything and does his best to manipulate people into doing his bidding, especially the littler kids. honesty is not exactly his strong point so it's hard to determine sometimes what is going on but i am at the point now that i am just assuming that he is either lieing or in the wrong in most situations unless i have reason to beleive otherwise. i have called around trying to find out his test results today. so far i called the lab they said they sent out the pics and the doctors should have them by now and i should call the doctor that ordered the tests. that doctors nurse said they don't have them and didn't know what i was talking about. so i called the psychiatric. that asked for the results to be forwarded to her and she said she has a copy but she can't do anything with it because she doesn't know how to read them as she's not that kind of doctor which is what i figured, she just wanted a copy for her file. so i called his pediatritian who was not in. the nurse gave me ****(again) for not bringing him in for over a year and i had to explain(again) that the doctor has been seeing my step-son regularely, he comes to the psychiatric appointments with us. then i had to explain why he had the tests done in the first place because he is having trouble breathing and as soon as i said that she said(again) that they don't deal with trouble breathing and take him to the clinic. which is what i did in the first place and if she would just close her mouth and listen she would know that he is having trouble breathing because his medications that they gave him have caused him heart problems and so i didn't even finish talking to her. i am going to call back in the morning and hopefully be able to get her have the doctor phone or get him fit in there. it seems like no one wants to take responsibility to help with this when it is a big problem. i would like to take him there and leave him with them for an hour or two so they can see what i'm dealing with and stop brushing it off. anyways, time to get difficult child off the bus. thank you for the advice and the chance to let me vent. oh, and we already have everything dangerous locked up as we had an incident (well 2) last summer with him and had to babyproof everything even the high up stuff.
