  1. Past hour
  2. Around here most sick people are suffering with allergies. The geography of the area makes it a bowl and everything just stays here. The tree or grass pollen has been high most days.
  3. My DD who is nearly 30yrs old. She was diagnosed and started on meds for ADHD in the 4th grade. She has gone through diagnostic testing two time as an adult, and she is about to have to go though it again to get back on meds. I don’t think it is profiling as much as it is just the system that we have. Every time she sees a new doctor, they make do it all again.
  4. Where do you get the Ceylon cinnamon? I’ve heard so much good about it, but never knew where to get it. Can you get it already ground?
  5. @Janeway I am sending all the prayers to your son right now. I am so sorry.
  6. How devastating! I'm so sorry. Praying with all my might
  7. Today
  8. Prayers for you and your family
  9. Now I’m curious- what was the essay prompt?
  10. Praying for your son and your family, Janeway. 💙
  11. But with the drug being one that could possibly be abused, I can understand a new doctor being hesitant. I would assume length of diagnosis and length of treatment would be something a doctor would take into account. Long standing diagnosis and stable on a med for years would look very different compared to say a recent diagnosis of a college student and a not very robust medicine history. It sounds like the OP's son had a diagnosis as a child, was prescribed meds but was not taking them currently. My daughter has been diagnosed twice, at age 18 and 19, and is now 24 and was stable on Vyvanse for about four years before getting her next psychiatrist. The psychiatrist accepted the two diagnoses and current treatment plan, while the OP's son does not have a current diagnosis or a current treatment plan. 🤷‍♀️
  12. I did the Sutab tablet prep. You can take them just with water if you want. No weird stuff to drink. It was so much easier than any other prep I read about, and no cramping at all. it's definitely what I will request again next time.
  13. The existence of a market is not the fault of the patient. They use baby formula to make meth. Not the baby’s fault. When a mother of twins is prevented from buying enough formula at a time without showing up at the store without a doctor’s note, the world has gone whacko. I live with three people with ADHD. We have a lot of expensive documentation spanning multiple timeframes. Documentation necessary for diagnosis that is not always covered by insurance. BTDT There are also PLENTY of medical conditions that are subjective. There are plenty of objective conditions that people are doubted for. I don’t think most doctors would be in business long if they didn’t accept the vast majority of existing diagnoses that come their way because patients and insurance companies would get tired of watching which way the wind blows. Do they change treatment plans sometimes to optimize new information or being fresh eyes? Sure!
  14. My son committed to UCLA yesterday! Then he went and declined the rest of the schools he was accepted to. Berkeley was the toughest to find the withdrawal button - we joked that they probably couldn't believe someone would be declining admission! The rest were much easier to find. 🙂
