[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 186696, member: 1550"] That just shows you that this is an inexact science. At his young age it is especially hard to really know what is wrong so they pretty much gave him every diagnosis under the sun, hoping one is true. I would go with the interventions and wait until he's older to evaluate him again. If he has a speech delay and social delays (including being finicky about food) I would keep an eye on Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). Often doctors are just loathe to actually use that diagnosis when kids are young, yet early treatment gives a child the best overall prognosis so it's counterproductive. Go with your gut about your child and get him all the help you can. There are no blood tests so nothing is written in stone. Here's an online Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) test you may want to take. It can tell you a lot: [url]http://www.childbrain.com/pddassess.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
