[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 17289, member: 3444"] Thank you, smallworld. I do have the short-acting Focalin and have used that after school to get him through homework (20mg). It's just so much different from the Concerta where he could manage well until almost dinnertime. I'm okay with the booster, just as long as I know that this is what's typical with this medication. I'll be leaving an update for the psychiatrist today. His spedcialty is peds/adolescents, and he's actually been quite good at managing things for us for the past seven years (unlike the pediatricians we've had who are just way out of their league). I know that difficult child 2's latest developments have been a bit more puzzling for him. I think he has mentioned mood stabilizers in our last meeting (things get blurry... Know what I mean??). We go back on the 20th. When your difficult child had the neuropsychologist evaluation, was he medicated during the exam? Just curious if that helps with the assessment or if they can see what's happening despite the medications. [/QUOTE]
