[QUOTE="B’smom, post: 740187, member: 23359"] I’ll look into the hormone if I have time tonight, but definitely by tomorrow am before the meeting. I completely understand on the controversial aspect of it. I have had a very hard time finding any real information on his diagnosis. Most appear to repeat the same information over and over again. Even the book I bought, appeared to be an explanation of the diagnosis. The diagnosis itself fits him to a T. He’s quite grumpy all day every day. We have unfortunately been to a geneticist. He had a microduplication on 14q12 on a basic test but they won’t do further testing (government won’t approve it). J and I have talked about when we go back in November to the geneticist that we’ll inquire how much it will be to pay for it out of pocket. The tests unfortunately, are sent to the states as we don’t have the resources in Canada. (Kind of like how we don’t have treatments for Lyme disease here). There are a few studies with his microduplication and speech/aggression concerns but nothing seems to be concrete. The child psychiatrist is the one that diagnosed him with it. He was also diagnosed with ADHD, developmental coordination disorder and childhood apraxia of speech. They took away his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), ODD and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) diagnoses. I’ll definitely ask about the hormones. He’s currently on Straterra, Seroquel (sorry I know my spelling is wrong) and another medication for ADHD but I cant remember the name at the moment (like concerta but not in the Ritalin family.) he’s been on many other medications as well that haven’t worked. Maybe this would be a better alternative. [/QUOTE]
