I guess I'm still on Hawaii time since they are 5 hours behind Connecticut so that makes it 7:56 PM. I had a bet with my husband, and mad a prediction on this board a couple of weeks ago, that my son was under suppressed. I can usually tell (every since he was grossly undersuppressed during the Upjohn suspension time)when he is under suppressed. One of the signs is crankyness. Others may be loss of appetite, loss of weight, easily aggitated, physical aggression, aches in his bones and an inordinant interest in the opposite sex. Dr. New's office called us while we were in Hawaii and told us he was, indeed undersuppressed and that we needed to increase his night time dose by 2.5 mgs. I have already noticed a difference in his behavior. The only thing I can tell you, speaking as a parent, is to follow your gut instinct and don't let anyone tell you otherwise until you get your blood work back. Good luck to you and your child.
