triplefigs said:Hi, all. The appointment went well with the Neurologist today. DH went too. Rees was very anxious/crying during the entire appt which was good so she could see what we were dealing with. Long story short, Rees definitely is having anxiety attacks and has been diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder. She said it was a good thing we came in as he could make himself very sick. He will start a med tomorrow to hopefully help. We follow up in 2 weeks to monitor his progress. The doctor also feels Rees now falls on the Autism spectrum and she tentatively diagnosed him with PDD-NOS. Not what I wanted to hear, but I'd rather face this head on and get him the help he needs. My parents will be here tomorrow by the time we get home from school. I'm really looking forward to seeing them.
Thanks again for the prayers. I am feeling a little better, but am still very emotional and completely wiped out. My mom told me to go have a beer, and who am I to argue with my mom!![]()
I'm glad that you got some answers today. In my opinion it is better to know what is going on rather than wondering. There are great meds out there for kids now so hopefully they can get the anxiety disorder under control pretty quickly and things will get a little easier.
