The week will begin with a trip to see Gavin‘s psychiatrist this morning.

There isn’t too much to report, which is a positive thing. Frankly, Gavin’s doing really, really well. There is however, an issue with a difficult side effect to the medication Clozapine he’s on. 

He’s having continued bladder problems and a constant, driving need to use the bathroom. It’s very painful and definitely interferes with his day to day life. 

I don’t know if there is anything we can do about this but I really want to provide him with at least some relief. At the same time, the medication is absolutely necessary to manage his schizoaffective disorder. 

Hopefully, we can get some good news and start the week off on the right foot.
