[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 198033, member: 1550"] You don't have to agree, but I'd go beyond Amen for a diagnoses. It's just not a mainstream place and a lot of doctors don't don't consider a SPECT scan valid. That's why insurance doesn't cover it. I don't trust them either, so I'm biased. You can not diagnose Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) on a scan--my son has it. Anyway, I wouldn't trust his diagnosis. to be based on a scan. You can do what you want---not trying to talk you into anything, but I'd see a regular neuropsychologist. I wouldn't trust Amen. Your son needs help for all his problems, not just ADD. If anything, that's the least important of his problems. If he has Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), a private neuropsychologist should find it without any scans. JMO :) Good luck. [/QUOTE]
