[QUOTE="Alttlgabby, post: 243277, member: 6786"] 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 ;) Thanks MidWestMom. Right now, she is under foster care still so I am having to go through the state at the moment because our worker told us that Medicaid would not pay for testing for Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE). They will however pay for the testing with the psychiatric. I will be talking to him next week when she goes for her first two hour visit because I want her tested for everything under the sun that he can think of to cause a lot of her behaviors. Right after adoption, they will be under our military insurance so we can go to anyone that we want for the first 8 visits without a referral and they can do whatever testing will be necessary. We just found out two days ago that they are now totally free for adoption, so that ball should be rolling pretty quickly for us. [/QUOTE]
