Guest guest Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Hi All I forgot to mention this in my last post , it has been awhile ,about 1 month we went to see a (shrink ) pychyistrist for brandon's behavior and they said he is ADD ? ADHD they put him on Ritalin LA in the mornings 20 mg and then some other form of ritalin in the afternoon 10 mg and then risperdal at night 0.25mg for his sleep , they thing is and yes I have called the dr but he is rolling his eyes way back in the corners and up in his head and then some times blank stares and drools (only for a slight second), she said this could be signs of a sezier(sp)and we are scheduled to see her next week . He has Sensory issues and Odd and Obbsesive compulsive disorder. He has been picking his fingernails and toenails like crazy and this didn't start till the meds ? Are their any other kids on here on Ritalin? Are they doing the same thing with the eyes or the picking ? He also is not sleeping at night (yawns) I am so tired ! He gets up and plays but last night came and woke me up three times to say he wasn't tired ?This is relly becoming a big concern and I know the dr. is getting tired of me calling but oh well I want to know if it is to much meds that maybe he is overdosed or something by the way he acts ! If their is anyone that can't help or give advice please post back , he is only 30 pounds and on 20 mg in morning and 10 at afternoon that seems awfully high , but she knows of his weight she weighs him every time we go ! Anyways thanks and talk with you later any advice will help ! mom to s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
