[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 493920, member: 11791"] I'm guessing that MWM's mis-diagnosis issue... was quite a few years back. And if its anything like for us - the knowledge base just wasn't out there on so many of the issues we deal with. If you were lucky, where was "some" research to go on, but only if the psychiatrists and tdocs and schools knew about it, and often they didn't. If you were really unlucky - and MWM's son would be one of those - you got a psychiatrist who had picked up on ONE of these "newer" issues... but not the full spectrum of possible issues, and so tended to "see" whatever diagnosis it was that they were interested in... With more clinically-supported methods, approaches, etc., and with more wide-spread knowledge, these things happen less often now... but they still happen. (admitted to by some favorite tdocs...)
