Guest guest Posted April 25, 2000 Report Share Posted April 25, 2000 I have found that I get the best results from mixing small doses of medications together (with a doctor's advice, of course). For example, melatonin by itself did a similar thing to me. I have similar problems with Klonapin by itself. You might want to try combining the melatonin with a sleep aid or drowsy antidepressant. I get similar benefits by combining ritalin and Prozac. They enable me to concentrate, and benefits with my mood with Tegratol and Prozac. Just an idea and my opinion. You can take it or leave it. I won't be offended.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 I did a quick google last night, found one site that would have scared the liver out of me a years ago, when I wasn't so confident as I am now. But I also found a couple of sites concerning congenital hypoT which indicated that if the infants/children's TSH was not supressed, they were probably not getting enough medication. Those sites looked better researched as well. I agree, nobody is above making mistakes.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Hi I think hockey is the only sport that they haven't played LOL...but they swim either in our pool or ocean daily for hours...soccer practice hasn't started again yet..but they would be outside at 7:00AM if I let them..don't think the neighbors would appreciate it They run, bike, scooter, play with their friends outside all day long...last night I didn't give it to them and they were asking me for it still at 10:00PM. I didn't give it to them to see what would happen and yes, they eventually fell asleep..but I am thinking that they start to get over tired and can't get to sleep and want to sleep...kind of like them asking for their fish pills?? Do you think they know they feel differently when they take them ? I know other kids that ask for their fish pills, too...not sure if any ask for melatonin....kathy NJ ________________________________________________________________________ Check out AOL.com today.
