[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 100847, member: 23"] It is the very, very rare instance that an ADHDer doesn't have at least one coexisting condition. If your child has sensory issues, you may want to strongly consider an evaluation via a pediatric Occupational Therapist with-a subspecialty in Sensory Integration Disorder. Because of the ear infections, just a heads-up and something you may want to be on the lookout for is Auditory Processing Disorder (Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) aka Central Auditory Processing Disorder). Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) "looks" a lot like ADHD and they can coexist. A child can be born with Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) (genetic), can acquire it via ear infections, etc. Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) doesn't impact hearing so a hearing test will not discover it. "Screens" won't do either. Diagnosing it requires an audiologist with-expertise in APDs. (There's more than one type.) Welcome. [/QUOTE]
