[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 24747, member: 3527"] I am of the same opinion as MidwestMom on this one, with everything else going on, it seems strange that the ADHD is the PDR's bigger concern. That really is the BIG battle we are fighting with our PDR. The ADHD stims seem to make the behaviors worse!!! But she is more concerned with making sure that is properly treated than taking into account the other behavioral issues that are being escalated by the ADHD medications. It's like I mentioned in my, well, fifty page intro, I know that they say like, 65 percent of kids with behavioral disorders also suffer from ADHD, so it isn't an uncommon thing, you would think that these PDR's would know how to handle this dilemma of the ADHD medications working AGAINST you with any treatment you seek for the behavioral issues. From what I understand, mood stabilizers like Seroquel, when used in conjunction with the ADHD medications, will help with the behavioral issues and combat the HORRIBLE side effects of the stims they give for ADHD. Of course, every child is different and this may not always work, but it may be something to bring up at your next appointment! [/QUOTE]
