Well ... that was fun! (NOT) .... we found out that we can't take her off the Risperdal! The Risperdal was reduced from 0.3ml to 0.2ml on Saturday and 0.1ml on Sunday. By Saturday evening she was getting worried about where her toys were being placed ... and by Sunday noon, she was in very stimmy behaviours and becoming hard to manage. So by 3pm, we stopped the experiment and topped her dose back up to 0.3ml. By bed time, she was better and this morning, she is back to the current version of normal.
This shows that Lovan and Risperdal are either :-
a) working on different problems so that the lack of either will cause a particular problem to occur .... or
b) working together so that they are needed in combination to deal with stimmy / anxiety issues.
I think it probably shows that stimming and anxiety are two separate problems.
