[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 30612, member: 1697"] Sometimes the answers are not so simple even after much thought and input from several docs. I have been in so many meetings with multiple docs for my kids over the 18 years where one doctor had one opinion and another doctor had another opinion and a 3rd doctor has had a 3rd opinion. I have had my kids and myself get stuck caught in the middle while the docs fight it out, and while they get down and dirty and threaten to call CPS on each other or on me if my kids take or do not take certain medications. I have had all the docs involved agree on a medication approach and then have serious end results with major reactions to those medications. There are no perfect answers that are going to work across the board. THere is nothing wrong with second guessing and rethinking things and reviewing and re-evaluating them when something happens in the world. This is part of a learning process, and becuz most of these medications have not been safety tested in children and becuz the medicating of children for these problems has not been going on all that long (relatively speaking) it is not a bad idea for us to use these events to take another look at things. Sometimes we can learn from the experiences of others. Being aware and cautious is not a bad thing. [/QUOTE]
