> That's a tough one without being able to see him. The EEG will probably be the best help. If he indeed has Asperger's disorder, the shocks may be a manifestation of that illness. Did the start of the shocks have anything to do with the Paxil? Why was he on Paxil? Paxil does't treat adhd or dyscalculia or Asperger's and unless depression was present, probably wouldn't help anxiety. Not much help here, but good luck.
Thanks again Toby, My sons psychiatrist put him on the paxil for his anxiety(pretty severe) 2-3 weeks into the paxil he started complaining of the shocks. Can you recommend something for childhood anxiety/adhd???? I'm at my wits end!!!! he is currently on 55mgs of ritalin. You dont happen to be practicing any where near N.Y.S are you??????
again, any thoughts for an 8 yr with anxiety?
thanks tons
