[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 402683"] She just got irritated with me for writing the remainder "r" as a lowercase instead of an uppercase (it's how I was taught). She said they do this "Stars" thing where you get a sheet of problems from the teacher to work on with a group and you not only have to get it done, you have to get it done fast. I think I'm starting to see where she feels pressured on this, not just the get it done fast part but also the having to work in a group part. She said they're not allowed to draw lines on their problems to keep them straight but she does have to draw the "drop down" arrows. I said draw the lines anyway if you need to, and if she asks or says something about it later, tell her you need it to keep things straight or I'll tell you need it. I asked what she needed to do in order to be able to do it fast. She said "practice." Then she got really edgy about it and complained about foot pains similar to the Zyprexa pains. She started the Intuniv an hour before that, so I'm keeping a timeline now to see if it's the Topamax or the Intuniv. The titrate schedule she has for both new drugs is the lowest dose for a week, then stepping it up one unit each week. The Topamax is currently at 25mg, and the Intuniv at 1mg. She did sleep better last night and said she feels better rested today (or did earlier). I'm thinking of skipping the Intuniv tomorrow and seeing if the foot pains aren't present. Told her if she feels that again during the day or anything weird to come tell me when it happens. Going to keep track of what/when she eats too, since both say they can have an effect on appetite.
