[QUOTE="klmno, post: 215711, member: 3699"] SW, personally, I thought the allergies had gotten to a point of being a sinus infection, too. I asked dr about the need for an antibiotic but he said he was a little concerned about difficult child just getting those medication changes from psychiatrist and he didn't really think it was an infection just yet. He said he preferred to try to get the allergies under control with the nasal spray first and not add another medication but if difficult child isn't feeling better by Fri., then call him and he'd address it as an infection. difficult child got up this morning, then said his stomach hurt and went back to bed. I've heard one thing or another for weeks now. His stomach probably does hurt from the medication change, but can they quit going to school every time? I'm so frustrated!! Oh- dr said the sinus drainage caused the sleep disruption (probably) and other physical things, including earache and sore throat and the low grade fever resulted from those things, but that wasn't necessarily an infection. School has some pretty good supports in place right now, even I have to admit. I don't think it's anxiety related to school right now. The reality of it is that if he's going to need long periods to shut down and put everything in life on hold, he will have to live somewhere else. Unless anyone can figure out a way for some agency to provide someone to come watch him while I'm at work or someone to pay the bills so I stay home with him all the time. I'm a single parent with no other income- unfortunately, neither of us have the luxery of shutting down and expecting the world to wait for us until we get our head back on straight or until we are in the mood to do what we need to do. Really, I guess I can try to get him on disability and maybe someday he'll get more advantage out of the resources being offered to him. But, the resources won't get better than what they are right now, I don't think. [/QUOTE]
