[QUOTE="bran155, post: 170182"] Actually, she has never had a bran scan. I have been pushing for one for years, they always say it isn't warranted . I can't see how that is but that is what they say. She has never actually been in this particular hospital before, so I am hoping to get an MRI this time. I will start calling to speak to the doctor in the morning and wont stop until I actually speak to him. I am going to request that we meet in person, as a phone call just will not suffice!!! I'm sure you know, when dealing with in patient docs they never have any time for you. And yes, she has been raging and "blacking" as she calls it, for years. She has been on every medicine you can think of and none of it made a difference for very long. It all only worked maybe for a couple of weeks then right back to the old her. Let's put it this way, she freaked out when she found out she was being admitted and they had 10 guys there holding her down and gave her a shot of Haldol and Adavan, she screamed at them and told them, in not so nice words, that it wasn't going to do anything to her. And of course hours go by and she still walking around as if she didn't get any shot at all. During one of her earlier hospitalizations, the doctor told me he had never seen a kid's metabolism eat through the medication the way my daughter's did. Pretty scary!!! Surprisingly, she likes the Lexapro, she says it puts her in a good mood. Yeah right!!! The only medication that I have seen take a long term effect on her, in a negative way though, is Concerta, Strattera and the other ADHD medications.
