New here - also Multiple sclerosis in family
Hello,
My son was diagnosed a week ago with bipolar. He turns 9 at the end of this month. I have MS and he also has neurological complaints so once his mood stabilizes the psychiatrist wants me to get him tested for multiple sclerosis also. Does anyone else here on the board have MS in their family? I guess MS and bipolar can sometimes go together from what I've read online.
Hoping things will get easier. The doctor increased his risperdal this week. So far no side effects but no improvement in mood either. It was a very low dose he was started on though.
Would be nice to hear from some of you.
Sincerely,
Julie
