Apr. 17, 2008 at 4:56 PM Is there anyway to change him over to Metroplex?  I know of a few people who have children with psychological issues and they are all seen at the Metroplex hospital.  I hate Darnell the doctors aren't the greatest and seriously over worked and they just don't care a lot of the time.  I hope things get better for you and your son.

I would try to find a doctor outside of Hood in either Killeen or Cove that takes Tricare and get some opinions from them. This is obviously a serious issue and needs to be treated as one.

Hey I am a so sorry about your son!  You are a strong person to deal with something like that!  I would suggest trying to find a psycisian outside of Fort Hood.  I hate Darnell and I hate any military hospital!  My own DR sent me all the way to Austin to deliver Emma instead of going across to Darnell.  That should tell you how trustworthy they are!  I would def get an outide opinion.  I hope it works out!

I am soo sorry to hear that your son is dealing with this. I know about Darnell and they suck so freakin bad..I hated having to go there. What advice I can give you is that my cousin was going through the same situation but she was older. Your son needs to see a specialist and needs to be on medication. Or atleast that is what they said to her and its helped her alot. she doesn't hear the voices anymore. I think you should contact tricare if you haven't already and tell them you want to take him somewhere else. I really hope things get better for you. Stay strong..
