[QUOTE="farfromperfect, post: 421425, member: 11505"] We have been going to a psychiatric clinic for the last nine months, at our therapist's suggestion. There has been no neuropsychologist evaluation. We were set to start testing, but I don't think it was going to be as extensive as a neuropsychologist evaluation. What is involved with that? The Metadate was prescribed by our pediatrician after trying Straterra for ADD/mood stabilizer (and it didn't work). She then switched to Metadate and Lexapro (which we just found out has NOT been approved by the FDA for use in children). When we began seeing the psychiatrist, she prescribed Risperdal (which didn't work) and now Seroquel. We suspect he has a conduct disorder, obviously, but nothing has been "diagnosed." We are in Nebraska....we have Children's Hospital in Omaha. Is that where I should start checking for a neuropsychologist evaluation? [/QUOTE]
