[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 140698, member: 2423"] Any ADHD stimulant can cause a child with bipolar disorder to become more moody. In addition, hyperactivity in a BiPolar (BP) child is sometimes mania or mood instability instead of true ADHD. The neuropsychologist evaluation should help you sort it all out. When my son had a neuropsychologist evaluation and was on a stimulant at the time, the neuropsychologist had us bring him to the office without having taken the stimulant. The neuropsychologist himself gave my son the stimulant partway through the testing to see if he could notice a difference in my son's functioning on and off the medication. You're wise to ask the neuropsychologist whether you should give her the stimulant or not for the testing. [/QUOTE]
