I'm just curious, why in the world would a child so young take the antidepressant Trazadone??
Case reports in the literature have demontrated that some of the patients with trazodone related dystonias get better with removal of agent or treatment with benadryl IV in the acute setting. I am concerned as your daughter's condition is progressing despite the assumed removal of trazodone, that she may have something else such as a genetic abnormalitiy or metabolic problem. I agree, she should definitely see a pediatric neurologist for appropriate workup. Drs. Friedman and Bruce Cohen here at the CLeveland CLinic are outstanding peds neuro docs that take care of dystonic children. Baclofen pumps, deep brain stimulation are some of the treatments that we offer here. I don't know of any clinic near TN offering hyperbaric oxygen therapy, but that doesn't mean there isn't one. Your daughter needs the workup. I would not be satisfied with the diagnosis of trazodone, unless everything else was normal. Good luck to you.
