[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 308575, member: 1991"] Good point, Hope. All possibilities need Occupational Therapist (OT) be considered. Asking if he is happy about going to school won't necessarily tell you if that is a factor. GFGe3 loved going to school, was desperate to be there. School was where you had information laid out for you to learn and that made his brain feel good. But it was also where there were mean kids who were horrible to him. These mean kids also lived in the neighbourhood so unless he stayed within our gates he would still cop bullying. However, school was supposed to keep him safe. We found he did best when they put in for extra funding for a playground shadow. But that was only for one term and I couldn't make it continue. We eventaully found, In difficult child 3's case, that pullnig him out was best. However he is now old enough to be put back in to mainstream, if the bullying was the only problem. It's not, so he stays on a form of home schooling. But that's us. Different kids' needs can be met in different ways. And yes, this still could have a simple explanation. I remember y mother sending me off to college with a bottle of 'tonic". I took a dose and was prompty sick. I had little warning I was about to vomit, it was about ten minutes later. I've since learned that I can't take any medicine with iron in it, or copper (even trace amounts. I worked in an old building with copper hot water pipes and one of my co-workers, in a hurry to have hot water for his cup of tea, filled the kettle from the hot tap. I also had a cup of coffee and was promtly sick in the same way I react to the iron tonics. I barely made it to the sink. Afterwards I realised that the kettle MUST ALWAYS be filled from the cold tap, for me. Newer buildings with new pipes don't have this problem. The onset of the iron sensitivity was fairly sudden. One day I was OK taking the stuff; the next I was not. Anti-inflammatory medications and aspirin can do the same thing. There can be all sorts of reasons for a sudden vomiting attack, apparently out of the blue. And boy, do you fel better afterwards! Well, not immediately afterwards, but certainly once the nausea has passed it's a relief. Marg [/QUOTE]
