We still have teachers and people telling us she is hyperactive and needs ritalin. lol
Her pdoc says she is just symptomatic. Nothing will totally get rid of it. She is restless all the time but with the thorazine, it has improved. Its frustrating though when at each teachers meeting they bring up how hyperactive she is and needs meds for this. ugg. She cant stay sitting in a room for more than 15 minutes at a time before she needs to go see the guidance counselor for a break. Not all restlessness and agitation is ADHD for heavens sake! She sees and hears things! yea, that would make me have to get up and leave class too! Or be distracted in class! Do you know how many times I have to repeat this???
Okay. Rant over....
