My Daughter and her journey | ADHD Information

I was a little frustrated this morning when I posted my first post.   I guess I should leave a little more insight into her.  When she was 2 I spent many days in her doctors office crying because she was out of control and I didn't know what to do.  They referred us to a counselor to do parent-child therapy.  Part of her intake was an IQ test which then she was on almost a 5 year old level.  I completed the therapy with her, which benefited me greatly.  Still, I was at a lost.  I called for a support group in my community and we didn't have one.  I went back to work and she was enrolled in day care.  At 3, they started calling me because they couldn't handle her.  We maintained that until she started school.  I finally changed doctors and found one that listened to me and did the evaluation for ADHD.  We put her on concerta.  The first time I gave my daughter medication was the hardest thing I had ever done.  In about 30 minutes I was on the phone with my best friend crying because for the first time in her life.....she was playing.  It was amazing. So we stayed with that doctor, she liked him and I did as well. He moved to a facility in another city and we followed him there. After about a year there he moved out of state.  That is when our nightmare began.  No one in my area wanted to continue the medication he had put her on.  They all made the comment that it was too much.....while she is bouncing from wall to wall in the office.  Several doctors later, I had one tell me flat out one month she wouldn't fill her medication again and that we needed to find a different doctor.  We have very few pediatritions here so I went to one of the new ones.  Well this morning that failed. I don't mind trying something new, if it works for her.  We tried Vyvanse over the summer and it mader her more aggressive and doubled over with stomach pain. I am just wanting to find someone who will get to know my daughter and help us to do what is best for her.  I do not see her or the ADHD as a burdeon, but as a blessing.  She is a wonderful little girl who lights up the whole room.  But this new doctor today didn't even acknowledge that she was in there with me.  Why don't these doctors take the time to get to know their patients?  She is very capable of telling them how she feels and does have an opinon in what is going on and what she is taking. I am just lost.  I want so much for her and don't want this to hold her back in life but for us to find a way to allow her to accell no matter what. Lindy_Nicole39891.5614814815
