I just wanted to post an update. I took my son off singulair over a year ago. He was on since he was 2 yrs old and had started with chronic headaches at about 10 yrs old. He also had tantrums(I don't know how else to describe it), was upset and sad and basically disliked himself. He cried all the time. I had always thought it was just him. These symptom had come on slowly over the years. The first week off this med, it was like he was freaking out and everything was 100x worse. But the headaches almost immediately disappeared. Other parents were wondering how long it took for his personality to change.or if the kids would remain that way. It took quite a long time. It was worse for weeks after we took him off. Then it slowly started to improve. In the last 6-8 months, it's like living with a different child. There's no crying, he's happy, there's no tantrums anymore. Gets a headache maybe once a month instead of daily. He still has allergies, he still has asthma. But for the first time in years he seems normal. I love that word, normal.
