I just went to change Q's weekly clonidine patches. The ones that they say are at such a high dose, no adult is on that high of a dose, etc... and if they come off and don't go back on he can have a stroke.
When he checked out of the hospital they said, hey, this says daily clonidine patches. I said no weekly so the one I put on friday should be there, you checked daily right to make sure...OH yes.. well with all his behavior, I took their word for it and thought, no biggie I wll change it Friday.
So, IT IS NOT ON! I quick grabbed two and put them on...
NO WONDER we couldn't get him out of the hospital that day!!!! Can you believe it. And he just said, mom is that why you think my heart has been pounding really hard and I am so sweaty every day? HUH????
He had just had a little "fake" spell and I asked him to lie down.
Now, I'm thinking can putting this on suddenly be too much???
I have to call another doctor. they are checking with the in. pt . doctor. but I will call mine too.
I am gonna be checking him every half hour. Just beside myself.
ummm and why did the day go so totally wrong with him???
I should know better...before the lamictal EVERY single time Q had a big behavior issue, there was a medication error. Either school forgot Concerta, or pharmacy couldn't get a medication in on time, etc. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I just thought with all that has gone on, maybe it was different this time. I am so .... ARRRGGGGGG
