I haven't been posting on the board lately. Partly laziness. Partly disqustwith myself and my inability to parent/take care of effectively Carson and his symptoms. He is now taking Intuniv 2mg, Respiridone 1.5mg, Citalopram 10mg and Strattera 60 mg. He recently started the Strattera in the last 2 weeks. He was doing good. At school socially. No hitting or cursing. Still some defiant behaviour...refusing to do any written work though. In the past 2 weeks he has been in the office for choking his best friend! And for pushing others, refusing to do PE. Sticking his tounge out at the Coach and saying "whatever" to him. Now we have noticed he has a nose twitching tic. I recorded it with out his knowledge to show his doctor. He also weighs 79 pounds. And is only a few digits away from "obese" on the bmi scale. Wednesday he goes to his doctor for his first fasting lab work (that ought to be fun).
I am just so tired
Could the Strattera be causing the facial movements? He looks just like a rabbit wiggling his nose.
He can be so sweet. And then yesterday attacked his brother. I feel like we are sliding back to Awful Land.
