New Med's


After being referred to several different Dr. for Carter's ASD we finally got to go to Primary's. We seen a Medication specialist and I guess medications in children with ASD do the opposite. We took him off all the meds he had been on in the past. I quite giving him everything because of they way he felt. They put him on a blood pressure medicine. I had my suspicion's with it as well as no sleep (had to make sure he was still alive). Well Carter can Snore, even without adenoids! He has more energy and is up bright and early (5:00 this morning). He says he fells better then he has ever felt. I guess the blood pressure pills help with the sleep so he has more energy during the day. Children with ASD are often diagnosed with ADHD-H when in reality it is just the effects of ASD. I am so glad this Dr. knew what she was doing and could answer a lot of my questions and not tell me I need a therapy dog like the other one!
