[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 603262, member: 3419"] Hi Firefly2, I do have experience with this, unfortunately. ;) My son has HF Asperger's and a mood disorder, probably bipolar. ADHD was the first diagnosis but I knew from this board that it was just the tip of the iceberg. He urinated in the bathtub, in the sink, and in Coke bottles in his bedroom. Oh, yeah, in the closet, too. We were so naïve, we believed him when he blamed it on the dogs! but when we found it in the sink and Coke bottles/cans, we knew he had done it. He still says it was just one time and it was just because he was too tired, but he has no idea why he did it. And has no idea that it went on for yrs. Some of it is due to impulsivity, and some to a lack of social awareness and concern ... so I wouldn't be surprised if your son is on the autism spectrum. Especially with-all of his sensory issues. And yes, you can have more than one diagnosis, as our son does. The dr put him on desmopressin, which helps keep the bladder calm when it's full (the opposite of a diuretic). It helped immensely, especially with-the bedwetting. Now he wets the bed about once a yr. and he only uses it when we are on vacation, aka using someone else's bed. (He's 16) I would highly recommend desmopressin. I also would not recommend zoloft (Keep in mind I'm a mom, not a dr, so it's my opinion only). I have a feeling that with-your son's sensory issues, you'll run the gamut of drug allergies like we have. [/QUOTE]
