Hi there.
Who is testing them and what sort of tests are being done? I had the best luck with a NeuroPsychologist. That was the most intensive, thorough testing my son had ever had and we had great results. I strongly recommend seeing one--they are at hospitals and you can be referred by your pediatrician--our insurance let us just go without a referral. It was a lot different than just sitting in a room with somebody making an evaluation without even testing their mental and cognitive skills.
I also think that if your child is worse on stims, remove them. JMO, but I did when my son acted up on them. Why make it worse? I'd also question the ADHD diagnosis. if the child is worse on stimulants, and, again, have another professional evaluate. I have no clue why the bipolar child would be put on stimulants as they normally makes them worse.
