Guest guest Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 My son has PANDAS and Aspergers and complsions and tics. We are seeing many different specialists and meds have become necessary to help with behaviors and compulsions and tics. My 7 year old son has started having bowel issues in Feb. At the time we were trying different stimulant meds. I attributed it to the meds so we stopped the stimulants. Now he is having loose BM accidents several times a day when he doesn't even know until it is too late. His Bottom is very irritated and sore. Does anyone know of a good GI ped Dr.? Is this a common ASP issue? We are Akron/Canton area but see Dr's in Cleveland also. Also because of recent tantrums and meltdowns/anger we are switching meds yet again. He has been on Abilify 15 mg and celexa 20 mg. The Abilify seems to have worn off its effect. Now his psychiatrist Dr. is switching him to Risperdal and clonidine plus the Celexa. What can I expect? Will this cause more GI issues and should I wait until I see a GI Dr to switch yet again? Dr. informed me today he is leaving the outpatient so we will get yet another Dr. to explain our long medical history to. Finding an OH Dr. to help with the PANDAS had been a nightmare. Please let me know if you have any suggestions other then Dr. or Dr. demio who do not take insurance. Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
