[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 549626, member: 8045"] Aghh.....I know exactly how you feel! My son were diagnosed by a SI trained Occupational Therapist (OT) as having sensory processing disorder (SPD)....and by a very good quilified ST as having Auditory Processing Disorders (APD)....Both said his profile fit Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids. He were assessed by a psychiatrist who spes in kids....She first diagnosed possible ODD.....Then after 3 more sessions said Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) not otherwise specified..... So we took him to a child neurologist....appaerantly one of the best known in our country! His 2 nd sentance he said to my son was" and you can drop your bad attitude"!!!! From there all went downhill! He said nothing is wrong with my son, dismissed ALL reports....and gave us a lecture on parenting! He never explained my sons abnormal EEG...headaches, vomiting or what CAUSES his bad behaviour! The psychiatrist was very upset and told him to keep his psychiatric judgement to himself because its not his field of speciality! So we are seing a new neurologist next week...he also start seing a clinical psychologist who works with kids....After only one assessment session the psychologist said she could see plenty of issues that needs work, that we have a great little boy.....She dropped bits and pieces of possible bipolar...or impulse control issues, we are having our feedback session the day after we see the neuro, because she wants to clarify neuro stuff first! I wonder if your pead have ever heard of a child having more than one diagnosis!!!! Wonder why he is leaving...? Anyway, hang in there and dont stop until you find the answers you need....not want, but need....so you can know best how to help your child! [/QUOTE]
