50/50 legal custody, primary parent with 67% physical custody mon-fri
Mother has been making Dr appointments and not notified me so I could attend. Mother is also not sharing information I have given her regarding the childs health with the Dr.
Child has no real symptoms but while at a general check up, Dr noticed some inflamed nasal tissue. I explained to mother the child just got over a cold a few days previous.
Mom took the child against my will to a allergy specialist, who tested and found nothing, and then xrayed to check for a nasal infection, test came back negative as I knew they would. Again child has no outward syptoms at all.
My real issue
The allergist recommended Omnaris for 10 days, the child under this steriod and seems to have a allergic reaction which causes more inflamation and hard breathing at night, resulting in snoring and what sound like labored breathing. Mom made another appt and didnt tell this information to the Dr who now after the ten day trial of Omnaris has put the child back on this medication.
I dont want my child having this medication, its causing more issues, then solving anything. It also has some pretty serious side affects listed on the manufacturers page, some of which I see, [as noted]
Do I have the right to not medicate my child even though the Dr has made a prescription?
it really sucks having a parent, not co-parent on these issues.
