MY SON WHO IS 45, IS IN THE HOSPITAL GOING
MY SON WHO IS 45, IS IN THE HOSPITAL GOING THROUGH HIS CONDITIONING CHEMOTHERAPY TO
PREPARE FOR HIS STEM CELL TRANSPLANT. HE HAS ANXIETY ABOUT BEING CONFINED IN THE
HOSPITAL. THE DOCTOR HAS GIVEN HIM ATAVIN TO HELP WITH HIS ANXIETY. IT SEEMS THAT
THIS DRUG CAUSED ANGER AND AGGRESSION. I DO NOT KNOW THE DOSAGE THEY ARE
GIVING HIM. HE WAS ON IT FOR TWO OR THREE DAYS. THE ANGER APPEARED WHILE HE WAS
ON THE DRUG. IS THIS POSSIBLY A SIDE AFFECT? COULD IT BE CAUSING ANGER RATHER THAN
CALMING ?
