[QUOTE="jdharris79, post: 144761, member: 5015"] Thanks for all the welcomes...I am truly tackling this head on to hopefully have some control over this before he hits the teens and we have a full blown case of the conduct disorder. We seen the psychiatrist today and i guess we are cutting back the serequol because his weight gain is through the roof and he is now sitting at 144lbs. We also getting some blood work checked for the weight gain and ruling out diabetes he said. He also told me he couldnt stress enough how much this is a pure case of DEFIANCE and the text book case of the oppositional defiance disorder without any other underlying conditions. His last appointment before the physc exam they the psychiatrist told me that rarely does a child just have odd and not adhd or a learning disabilty. My child is the rare occasion i guess. He also agreed that there is no adhd no learning diabilty and get this no bipolar....but meanwhile the physc exam is sitting staring him right in the face saying CHILDHOOD BIPOLAR THAT NEEDS CLOSELY MONITORED.He said the sereqoul and risperadol do the same thing and they will help the defiance but the wieght gain is outweighing the good. He also finally agreed to no stimulants are not good for him...I have only been fighting this for 4 years.... So I guess there was some good that they finally cant lable him adhd anymore and they cant use stimulants for him but now to get him to agree and accept the bipolar part . I will just keep relying on the mental health team I am sure they will go to bat with me on the bipolar when they are the ones that got the diagnosis of bipolar... Till then I will just keep fighting the fight with my head held high knowing that I am doing all for him I can not just sitting back and letting it get out of control. Jill [/QUOTE]
