not doing good on GH

[Guest guest]

Hi all it seems that when you finally think their is help for our

kids something goes wrong!! I give hugs to everyone with kids that

are sick or hurting, I can say I feel the pain that my is

going through, I am so stressed out about these G H shots!!! It was a

week yesterday and things are just awful, I am tired of talking to

doctors tired of talking to therapist.... they all just kinda say

the same thing try this try that.. they don't know how is so

strong willed and so defiant on top of all the sensory issues in

which I am beginning to wonder if this is affecting him with the

shots, several of you on here say their kids are adjusting well on

the shot I am wondering if any of them are sensory like and

what to do? I feel so bad for him but I know I have to be strong I

didn't know it was going to be like this!!! He is so hysterical and

emotional , I know it is different with every child but him just

having RSS and everything else that he has been through surgeries

being ocd and odd and sensory all mixed into one plus now this

trama??? What am I going to do,he is going crazy if I just go in the

kitchen to get a drink he starts crying and running (that is where we

keep the shot supplies)I am wondering if it is stinging or burning I

have been talking to a lady and her son is very sensory and found out

that the same stuff I am using Nutropin A Q was really stinging like

a bee sting, I can't associate the difference cause he screams the

whole time!! I do think that when I am injecting he does scream

louder so I am wondering if it is the meds, Do any of you have this

problem? Do any of you know about the cool click air injection

device No needle can this be changed? Is he old enough for this

device, I hate for him to hurt escpecially if it is the med I don't

want to put anything extra on him if I don't have to.I just don't

know if it to early to tell or not,I ask him if it hufts and he says

yes you meanie I don't like needles I try to explain to him that it

is so tiny he shouldn't feel it? UGH I need help!! The sticker

chart doesn't help he could care less ,he doesn't like praise

afterward he is just plain hateful and mean towards me this hurts me

so much!! We have to go for kindergarten shots next week and he has

to have 3 in his arms plus then when we get home later he isn't going

to like me after that day!!! I have tried the numming cream still

screams I am just going out of my mind here seeing him like this!!!!

We are going to meeet with the lady and her son and she is going to

let her son give himself the shot with and see if this

works... but I think in a actuallity he is just scared, I don't like

having to get on to him before hand but I have tried being nice and

rewards and I am just having to hold him down 3 of us and this is so

awful, either I try to prepare him before ,he goes crazy or I try not

saying anything until I have gotten it ready and I ask him to come

here and he sees it he goes crazy..so either way NOTHING is

working!!!!! I am wanting to try at night when he is asleep but I

really don't want him to wake up and be scared to go to bed he bangs

his head at night and he knows when I come in to move him he wakes

up, if I was to start poking him then he isn't going to trust me to

sleep!!UGH Help if you can I hope I have explained things well to

see if any of you have anything else to try. I don't know what to do

now and it's only been a week UGH I have to do this for years I am

going to lose all my nerves lol thanks to all and hugs to all

5 years!!!
