mar Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 This is really hard! Ds has been doing well for awhile with occasional tics hear and there. But with strep in may several times between him and dd a little worst but okay and these past couple of weeks total downside!!!! Pulled something in chest no broken injury and now all congested eith a cold I think. Was at doctors for injury but got strep swab also and nothing. He is now fighting a cold with coughing and pale. Last couple of days just all over , jumpy not really listening. He is laying on the floor and on head at times. He is around sister and just keeps pushing buttons. I feel so bad for him! I know he is not feeling well but what is up with the hyperness at times. He is bouncing on minitrampoline and I ask what about your pain by rib . He saids it's okay if j jump a certain way. He missed all week of football bc of pain but is all over. I guess when I see my 10 year old on the kitchen floor who is 5 foot 4 it really breaks my heart. His OCD is up. He is more clingy. Sorry just venting and realizing this never ends. He has this constant little mouse sound tic for about a week. Mar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaMW Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Is he taking any antiobiotics now? Our doctor told us to try GABA when he seems anxious. I have noticed it does calm him. We are currently on Keflex, just starting a long term course as maintenance and I noticed he is jumpy and wound up more so than usual (son also 10 yrs). Our biggest issue is agitation and irratonal thinking. I have noticed the abx has stopped the OCD. All of us families have experienced different things but yet some of the same things, it is just so confusing at times. I know what you mean about needing to vent, we all do. Hopefully you will find some answers, many great people on here with advice. You are not alone, if that helps. My days are usually filled with anxiety myself, waiting for the phone to ring because he can't stay at school or something else is wrong.

sosudden Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 10 year old dd here and tour story sounds so familiar. I think we have noticed that before - our dd at her worst was always always on her head upside down and moving strangly on kigchen floor. Heart breaking mar but u are not alone!!

JuliaFaith Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) Did you try the Motrin full dose 3xday for 5-7 days and then 1 dose/day for 5-7 days? This helped a bit with my son's last flair even while on abx. Edited October 10, 2012 by JuliaFaith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had it three years ago and sneezed for an hour strait and the then next dose several months later he got sk congested within 20 minutes that he cried and it was pretty crazy and scary and has not had it since then. I know there has to be something causing this but don't know what! Mar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
