[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 243096, member: 1550"] I'm glad about the neuropsychologist. Regardless of what WE think ("we" meaning all of our opinions) we aren't neuropsychs and our guesses aren't even as good as theirs...lol. Your son has been on a ton of medications. Have they helped? I think a new evaluation is a good idea. He *could* be misdiagnosed or somebody could have missed a co-morbid problem. It never hurts to get a second opinion. in my opinion just switching medications is not as good an idea as having the testing done. It sounds spectrumish to me and sounds hypersexual to others...so best to turn it over to a neuropsychologist who can get hands-on with your son and test him on every level for every disorder. in my humble opinion they do the best diagnosing of all professionals. Take care! To Gabby: in my opinion your niece should see a neuropsychologist too. She sounds spectrumish as well, but a neuropsychologist would be a better judge than any of us. However, if she was exposed to substances in utero that throws a kink into it--my son was also adopted out of foster care. I wouldn't trust the state evaluators--I'd go private. We had zero luck with anyone from the state. JMO. Welcome ;) [/QUOTE]
