[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 309692, member: 3444"] Just wanted to throw in our experience with the whole blood draw issue, because as you know we are in a boat, too, though not as often as Badger. difficult child 1 tolerated Ativan for a bit -- it really, really took the nasty edge off his anxiety and allowed him to get through blood draws without having a full blown panic attack. Not saying it will help Badger for certain, but it might be worth trying if you haven't already. difficult child 1 eventually refused the Ativan (after we got the general anxiety under control with daily medications) because he didn't like feeling loopy (guess that's a good thing!). Now he doesn't even ask for the Emla either. Just tells me to wait in the lobby and saunters in on his own. I hope the medication adjustments work quickly for Badger -- I can appreciate how you must be feeling through all this. It can be very hard, even for warrior mom's like you :) Hang in there and keep us posted on how things are going. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
