[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 397116, member: 3444"] The shock is slowly starting to fade now, and I really am feeling hopeful because at this point, it seems like we've already gone through the worst of it -- the violence, the destruction of things at home, the lying, the stealing, the acting out, and the bathtub antics that we are now aware of. I feel bad that he had to go through all that and that we didn't realize how much the medications were a factor. I guess most people would still be completely flipped out over this, but because I understand what was going on at the time I'm not as surprised as say my inlaws would be (not that they'll ever be told a word of this). difficult child 1 is taking this well. I think he's forgotton about it, or maybe blocked it? He says he vaguely has memory of doing something to himself, so that has to tell me it's been a couple of years since it happened. Can't believe he's never mentioned the fact that he often has pain when he urinates and frequent urge to go... Just another example of how he just buries stuff and doesn't deal with it. Sigh. Anyway, I told him that they could probably get it out with a scope, just that instead of his rear end it'll be the front end, and of course he'll be knocked out for it. I'm just taking an educated guess at this point. But the pediatrician urologist we're seeing specializes in non-invasive procedures, so I would bet that he probably won't need surgery. I had to laugh today, though. I went to our new insurance carrier's website today (we start with them on 1/1) and for some strange reason they don't list foreign body removal as a urological procedure! Go figure? [/QUOTE]
