[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 157828, member: 3444"] We were told dopamine antagonists are the first choice, like Depakote, and that APs are also used because of their dopamine blocking properties for treating the chorea symptoms. Sometimes I start wondering if I'm expecting too much? I just want my kid to be able to write legibly and without feeling like it is such a monumental task -- he USED to be able to do that. I want him to be able to enjoy his passion for reptiles and be able to hold his pets without shaking so badly he nearly drops or flings them across the room. Forgot to mention, propranolol was used for a time, but didn't seem to do much. Oh yeah, and his ASO titers are high, but throat culture negative. Cardiac consult was negative. [/QUOTE]
