Things Going Basically OK Still

(4ml prozac, probiotics, 1/2 magnesium, 2 drops of D3 250mg of zithromax)

Ewen has been going to soccer camp this week and he likes it. He has been a bit more twitchy and I am going to give him a Zithromax today. He hasn't had one since Saturday because I was going to do what he Dr said and just give him one a week at 500mg. But when he doesn't have one for a couple of days he gets more and more twitchy. He has a weird nose tic now too where he scrunches it a lot.

I want to come down on his prozac since that has been linked to facial tics but he is happy and I want that to stay.

I am also taking Prozac and I really like feeling calm about stuff instead of worried about things all the time. But it affects my motivation too.

I am loving this summer. We can all get up at whatever time we want to. We took Ewen a bit late to camp this morning. I'm not going to worry about rules or responsibilities...just relaxation and fun for a while, especially since we can't afford to go on vacation this summer.  I did make the kids some chore lists for the summer and they are doing them. That makes my life much easier. My oldest makes breakfast for herself and for my youngest in the morning and  she has been making waffles with fresh strawberries and organic chocolate sauce. Then she empties the dishwasher. My youngest makes her bed and washes the bathroom sink...every morning.

Today they all get their surprises for doing all of their chores all week long. The girls got an expansion pack for their Sims game and Ewen is getting two magic cards he has been coveting for a while. Next week they have to do all of their chores without any reminders from me to get their checkmarks that lead to their Thursday surprise...we will see if that works!

I have lots of editing to do today and then the girls and I will pick up Ewen from soccer camp this afternoon. I hope he is having a good day.

Still Chugging Along

It has been almost a month now since the terrible effects of the prednisone.   This morning I gave 50 mg hydroxyzine and 500mg of phenibut and she still said she wasn't feeling great at 11:30am. So I gave her 3 droppers of Valerian Calm, which seems to offer a small boost of happiness sometimes.   I stopped her 5HTP and replaced it with 10mg of fluoxatine. But yesterday she said she was having a hard time peeing. So if that happens again we will have to re-evaluate.   After she is comfortable on an SSRI I want to start the minocycline antibiotic, but I don't want to do that until I get her SSRI support up incase the antibiotic makes her feel worse I read minocylcine can have negative psychiatric effects for some people). I have maxed out her supports with the phenibut and the hydroxyzine and have nothing left to give if the minocycline does something weird neurological too.  So to support myself, I took 20mg of fluoxatine (prozac) last night and feel w...

All 3 Doing Well

Ewen: 500mg Zithromax 3x a week, less than 1/4 Clonodine, 1.5mg melatonin, Vitamin D3, probiotics, magnesium, fish oil, 16mg Prozac 8-year-old sister: 3mg Zithromax daily, magnesium, half an Oncolplex (broccoli sprouts supplement), 1mg melatonin, magnesium, iron, D3, probiotics 14-year-old sister - 250 mg Zithromax daily, magnesium, Oncolplex, 1.5 mg melatonin, magnesium,  probiotics, D3, fish oil, 20mg Prozac Ewen and his 8 -year-old sister are both doing really well now. My youngest has her energy back, no longer says "I fee bad!" all day long...in fact she never says it at all. She sleeps through the night more often and is much happier. She is still a grump, but in normal portions with lots of happiness and giggles in between the grumps. She is back to some kind of normal. The story here though is my 14-year-daughter with autism. We started out giving her pretty massive doses of Zithromax and it was just too much for her. She got very emotional and exhausted too. ...

Spring Break 2017 Update

4ml Prozac, 500mg Zithromax 3x a week, 1.5 mg melatonin, less than a quarter of Clonidine Ewen is doing well. Right now he is vacuuming and mopping the whole house (all 850 square fee lol) To earn an hour of screen time playing Overwatch. We have had a few hiccups. He got in major trouble in school for hacking into the computer and writing silly things on a class web page. He said he didn't realize he would get a referral and get in so much trouble since he wasn't hurting anyone and would never bully. He also dropped his grades because he was too busy having fun with his friends. So Mike and I had a meeting with his teachers. He now has a 504 plan since he has had lots of absences.  We are paying close attention so that we can make sure he completes his assignments. Last month he was having trouble with tics (mostly huffing) and anxiety and so his pediatrician put his Zithromax up to 500 mg every day for a full week. That completely helped and was amazing to get him back...
