[QUOTE="Mandy, post: 295049, member: 6245"] Thanks for the all the replies! We had a rough weekend so I am just now gettting back on. Here are some answers to some of your questions to give you a little more info ~Little Bear has had his initial blood draw a month ago and is due to have another one this week. ~He is scared at night at biodad's so I am trying to work out not to have any overnights. I am hoping he will agree without me having to take legal action. ~His initial dose was 500mg but we raised it due to him still going into mixed and manic states. He gets dangerous but I am doing everything possible not to have to hospitalize a 5yo due to the trauma I know he will go through. ~We aren't on any special diet besides watching sugar intake. We did the girlfriend diet for about 5 months but didn't see any real improvement. I am actually getting ready to put him back on it to see if I get an improvements with- the medications. I have checked out 2 more books and read them. One on Aspergers and one one bipolar children. The more I read abt Asperger's the less I think he has been mis-diagnosed... it just didn't fit with his symptoms. The book on BiPolar (BP) children did say that medications might not work on their own so now I am back to seeing what else I can do to help him. [/QUOTE]
