[QUOTE="DDD, post: 511153, member: 35"] Not sure this would work but it might be worth a try. You could write a note addressed to psychiatrist. that "could" include this information. Dear Dr. X On yyy date I contacted your office to request verification that difficult children poor choices were the result of his prescribed medication, Prozac. This week (Thursday yyy) I received a call stating that you were not comfortable or prepared to make that statement. Although I was disappointed I do realize that there could be liability issues involved that would prevent that attestment. I assure you that my intentions do not include future litigation. Furthermore the initial prescribing psychiatrist apparently is no longer in practice. In a cursory review of difficult children medical records I believe that the facts indicate the following: 1. difficult child had no episodes of physical aggression prior to the Rx provided by Dr. Z. 2. I was in agreement with trialing Prozac in hopes it would diminish concerns about ____. 3. Unfortunately the Prozac was not a good fit for difficult child and he became affressive for the first time. 4. With your permission the Prozac was deleted (or titrated down ??) for difficult child. 5. difficult child has once again returned to functioning without signs of aggression. I have no idea if that would "fly" but if the psychiatrist agrees to sign such a "statement of fact based on medical records" the tone would be simply a statement of fact and not a condemnation of Prozac or the acceptance of responsibility for side effects. Possibility? Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
