[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 58866, member: 3444"] Well, I guess I'll be calling UCLA on Monday to see just how long the wait list is for an evaluation. He had a cognitive and behavioral evaluation done about 3 years ago as part of a genetic study for ADHD. We got the report, (all testing was done off-medications) and it basically supported the ADHD-combined type diagnosis, and that he was a really, really bright kid. Maybe that's what I'm seeing in the "silly" drawings" -- his creative mind just taking an idea and expanding it (but forgetting to take us with him so we understand how he got there). But he hadn't had the weird manic reactions to medications like he has recently, so there's nothing in that report to account for what we have now. Anyway, UCLA said at the time that they could provide referrals for additional testing services if desired, so I think that will be a good place to start. Thanks, everyone, for the comments and feedback. I'll keep ya posted! [/QUOTE]
