[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 508465, member: 11791"] Re: weight gain... when difficult child had to go on a medication with weight-gain as a side-effect, our (favorite) psychiatrist told us that, if the medication worked well for what was intended, that there are other ways to counter-act some of that weight-gain side-effect, OR there are related medications to try, and not everyone gets the same reaction from each medication. So... for the short run, see what works. THEN see what you have to change to avoid excessive side-effects. Once you get ONE doctor who has seen the problem... you are at the start of getting help. "Our" opinion (parents) doesn't hold much weight. But just ONE medical doctor... others tend to listen. [/QUOTE]
