Medicine update

On a side note - Oliver has tried out several medicines for various things.  About a month ago he went from eating/sleeping/coordinate moving quite well to sort of dropping all those skills quickly.  It was awful.  He had been on low dose Valium for naps and was back off of it.  We started up valium again at night just for the 2 weeks leading up to the treatments because we all needed some sleep.  He had also suddenly developed really bad acid reflux and was on pepcid twice a day.  While we weaned him back off the valium before coming here we left him on the pepcid.  This is noteworthy because the valium was helping him sleep.  HBOT can help you sleep so I wanted to know which was causing sleep if sleep got any better.  Don't want to think you're spending money on something that works (HBOT) if it's in fact the medicine not the treatment.
