We saw difficult child's psychiatrist today, and starting tommorrow we are trying vvyanse. I am tired of him taking his patch off, and the 15mg patch is not enough and the 20mg is too much.
I work about 6hrs tommorrow, so don't feel too bad about going to work tommorrow, but Saturday I work 12hrs and Sunday 8hrs. With the way husband has been lately (not good, sleep really messed up) I am thinking I should use my fmla leave and call in for the weekend. I hate to do that, as the leave really is for husband. But then, if difficult child does not do well on this medication I will need to try to keep him from agitating husband.
Am I misusing my leave if I do that? I don't want to do that, but I am not comfortable being gone for 13hrs (with travel time) and then 9hrs.
We are still going to do a stimulant vacation, but right now is not the time. easy child and I are going to the coast on Monday for 2 days for her birthday, and I don't think husband could handle difficult child without a stimulant. We were almost out of the daytrana, so the choice was either go with vvyanse or more daytrana, and I am tired of him taking the patches off.
