Guest guest Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 My 9yr old son who has apbergers, OCD and anxiety has been tapering off Zoloft. He was on it for 3 years always the same does. No new meds except the prednisone. He was on 50mg of Zoloft is now at 25mg has been for 3 weeks. He also takes .25 mg risperdal 2 times a day. He got bronchitis and had to take him to the ER Sunday night his oxygen was at 88 and having trouble getting breath. They admitted him overnight. Gave him breathing treatments every 2 hours and prednisone. They gave him 60mg of it to take at home for four more days. Today, day three of getting it, he got two doses at the hospital, his moodiness and OCD which has been dormant was through the roof. He hated then loved everything. Nothing pleased him, and the new thing, everything had hair or germs. He went to bed hungry because he wouldn't eat from bags that had been open. Would not drink sink water or anything from the fridge because it might have hair(mine) in it. He was insane with the germ thing. The family doc agreed to stop the prednisone so I am wondering if this will fade away and if this is what caused it?? I cannot handle this. I mean he wont eat or drink! Help!!! I cant handle one more day of this kid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
