[QUOTE="SmartGrl001, post: 202131, member: 6087"] No, I didn't think the pediatrician herself would be able to diagnose, but that's where I figured I'd start. She's actually a resident at the Lutheran General's Children's Hospital. She is open minded, but is also very young. I more want a referral from her, and I don't think she'd have a problem with that. They themselves actually have what they call a "healthy steps" program where they observe and discuss with you your child's development and behavior. I'm not sure I want to get into that as much as just get a referral. I also have a number to a Children and Adolescents Behavioral department. I haven't called yet, but they may be able to get me in earlier. It's through the county. As far as insurance goes, we are on the AllKids program....state aid insurance basically. That is good and bad. There's a limited choice of doctors, but I don't think the pediatrician. will have a problem referring us, and everything is free. She has always been a handful, but it's really coming out more and more lately....especially in the last month. It's like a switch is flipped and she is a handful more often than not now. She used to at least have stretches...good stretches and then bad stretches. This bad stretch is lasting quite a long time...and it's amplified and getting worse...and I'm just wondering if there's ever going to be a good stretch again. [/QUOTE]
