Hi all ! Hope everyone is enjoying the end of summer.
It's been quite a while since I have posted but I check in a few times per week.
difficult child recently had a evaluation with a neuropsychologist and then after diagnosis was referred to a Neurologist who had a lot of experience in ADHD medications and their advantages and disadvantages.
After an extensive interview and reviewing all difficult child's records he feels its best that difficult child begin Wellbutrin.
He feels as though it will help him with focus, attention and "lift his spirits" and it will help motivate him.
difficult child has really bad tics while on stimulant medications and Neuro doctor feels this will help reduce tics as well.
I asked a ton of questions. The Doctor was so down to earth and upbeat and really made difficult child and myself feel so comfortable.
I just hate the medication-go-round ... I have been online doing all the research I can but I always feel this is the best forum to gain strength and knowledge.
He wants to start difficult child's dose out at 75mg and then follow up in 6 weeks to see how things are going.
This also will replace his current medication of Vyvanse 40mg.
Thank you !!!
