[QUOTE="buddy, post: 542892, member: 12886"] So glad you are making progress. Your son deserves a chance and you are amazing in your advocacy for him. Do you think there's a chance ex won't allow the lithium? My son is on lithium but doesn't have bipolar. I can share that for him it caused almost immediate increase in appetite and weight. At one point he was so obsessed with food he couldn't stop talking about restaurants and any kind of food discussion. He also woke several times per night to pee. The dose was lowered and it fixed that. On it's own it didn't work for us but now he takes zyprexa and is improved and I don't know if it is the zyprexa or the combination. Since so much is going on I won't risk his going off of it. Between the two medications and puberty he has gained over 40 pounds since Oct. He has also grown several inches too though. Just sharing one experience. Terry's son is just starting it too. Others here have stories about it. Every person is so different of course. I hope this is a step in the right direction! Will be looking forward to an update from you soon! ! [/QUOTE]
