Good morning,
Recently my son was admitted into hospital for 5 days, he was completely out of control that day, and we had already been dealing with explosions for about 5 days proior over anything and everything, regardless i took him to the hospital and he was admitted, they observed him and disgnosed him (finally) with ADHD/conduct disorder.
upon discharge they gave me a one month supply perscription for his new medications. and they actually seem to help, that and i have read the book "the exposive child".
so yesterday i took him to the doctor that we have been seeing for almost 4 years now, for her to actually get angry at me, for asking her to re fill the prescription. her words were exactly " i am not the hospitals puppet, if they prescibed it they should be over seeing it, and monitoring it" I was furious, Just when i started to think that i was getting somewhere...BAM. she then went on to tell me that she is just a consulting doctor and is not actually his doctor at all. she referred him to a Phycologist 8 months ago, the appointment was 2 days after he was discharged, it was also just a consultation...
now that i am back to square one, i know what the kid needs, i just need to figure out how to get it, she refuses to refer him to anyone else. she says she has done all that she can.
I dont understand how a doctor can prescribe medication for 3 years without actually taking them on... it doesnt make sence.
Has anyone else experienced this or anything simular?
