Hibernator (who didn't have to be up early this morning but was anyway and might need a new name, lol) saw her pediatrician today. Yet another one that thinks the psychiatrist can diagnosis the kiddo in 15 minutes a months or less. Needless to say because of that view he wouldn't refer her to a neuropsychologist. He did, however, give her a referral for genetic testing.
I did some research on the Human Genome project, and it might not be out of the question to have the genetics show up propensity for ADHD, Asperger's and other Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), etc. Has anyone else had theirs go through this kind of genetic testing? The doctor he referred her to for this has a lot of experience in genetic research (20+ years) and has done a fair number of lectures and new research (yes, I googled the genetics doctor).
Thoughts? Yes I know anything that shows up in their testing will follow her forever.
