[QUOTE="PassedExhausted, post: 354227"] Hi Marg, I appreciate your post and I apologize for my lack of formatting in my post.....usually I notice these things....but it must've been a reflection of my rambling thoughts (I also didn't mean for the post to be that long). :winking: As for Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)....that's what I thought when I first took him to a psychologist (5 years after original evaluation). His first cousin has been diagnosis'd with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) not otherwise specified. However, that psychologist told me my GFC didn't meet all the criteria and she doubts that is the problem. Second psychologist (last year) said the same after speaking with me for only 20 minutes. I always wonder if things would've been different had I allowed a full work up back when he was 3.....and not 5 years after he'd been in intensive Occupational Therapist (OT), ST, and academic help. The biggest reason the psychs fall back on, is that my son's behaviors do NOT manifest themselves EVERYWHERE and therefore they don't truly get in the way of his everyday life. Yesterday his ICM and psychiatrist mentioned actually thinking about Residential Treatment Center (RTC) (hence the reasoning behind the statement I made about not even knowing if I want to fight to keep him in my home). I don't know....on bad days....I just want it to stop...but on good days.....so different. I've never heard of this neuro-psychiatric evaluation....how much is it, as I'm sure insurance won't cover it..... Thanks, MK [/QUOTE]
