I know many people here believe lithium is the drug of choice and I personally have no opinion on this but my son's pdoc agrees with yours. He never prescribes lithium to a child unless everything else (including Zyprexa) has been tried.

Whoever told you elevated liver enzymes were caused by his diet was an idiot. Liver enzymes go up when your liver is getting stressed detoxifying your blood. That means too many chemicals, not food. Alcohol is obviously not the culprit so his drugs are. Watch the Tylenol as that is metabolized by the same enzymes as many of his drugs and can make things worse.

This pdoc sounds good. I hope your mama feathers aren't still ruffled. They all like a clean slate to make their own dx's.
