qannie47 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 My ds has now had 3 good days of school. I am seeing increasing improvement of symptoms. 90% DAY! Tonight, when I got home from work, I was greeted by a child who had a smile on his face and a sweet lilt to his voice that over the last month I wasn't sure if I would ever hear again. As I tucked him into bed, he sang a song to himself, "I am Happy Happy Happy". Music to my ears.... Mommy2MCL and ScaredMommy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qannie47 Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 PowPow: Really nothing different treatment wise. After we were discharged from hospital, I put him back on amox/clave 500 to finish out 14 days. (The hospital did not give it to him for 2 days that he was there because they did not see the value in it) Now he is back on old regime of 250 2x day. The only new thing to his diet is 5HTP started about a week ago. I lean towards thinking it was the abx that did the trick. I was told it will take awhile for the serotonin levels to increase from the 5HTP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qannie47 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 I would say we are a little over two weeks where I saw ds start to turn corner for the positive....He is still doing well....I have to remember that 7 year old boys are still 7 year old boys....when I take that into account, I would put him at about 90%, the remaining 10% are just little blips on the radar a couple times a day that he is self regulating himself out of almost immediately....Fingers crossed.

JoyBop Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 This is such miraculous news? Question...Was he on the abx before going to the hospital, and then it was stopped for two days, and then it was started again. Did I get that right? I cant help but wonder if there was something to that? Either way, it is the most wonderful news and I am so happy happy happy for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
