[QUOTE=", post: 2936"] Well I met with the Naturopath yesterday. As usual it was amazing! This man is just brilliant - I am so in awe of his knowledge, professionalism, and willingness to help me! He is handsome too - which doesn't hurt! LOL!!! We discussed Scott for an hour. He was truly concerned about the lead levels, and we went over the hair results line by line. The results truly show WHY Scott has so many problems. An elevated level of lead can cause depression and a deficiency in chromium causes violence and aggressiveness and aberrant behavior. Also - fine motor delays (which Scott has)! Overall - he said that ADD and ODD are really blanket diagnosis'. All kids who fit the very loose criteria are diagnosed with this and medicated to calm them - when really there is a biological cause for their behavior, and once treated they can begin to lead normal lives. They are truly unhealthy - not just mentally challenged! Scott's diagnosis should be changed to Lead Poisioning, Candidiasis, Magnesium and Chromium Deficient and Gluten Intolerant - NOT ADD!!!
