[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 500912, member: 1169"] So the school completed their testing and determined that she is eligible for special education services? Then the IEP is suppose to define the "now what". In the IEP should be: 1. The goals and objectives that your daughter will work on over the next 12 months 2. The list of related services and the amount of time she gets them each week (eg. Speech - 30 min/week) 3. Placement -- where she is going to be educated, is she in a regular ed room? a Special Education room in a regular building? a little bit of both? I'm not sure why your insurance company wanted the IEP or what ADHD therapy you are referring too. WRT to the weight loss, my daughter struggles with that as well. For her, she cannot do the Adderall-type medications but does okay on a low dose of Ritalin-type stims (they are different). My son can't take the stims so he take Clonodine -- great for ADHD-Hyperactive but probably not so much for ADHD-Inattentive. Strattera is another ADHD medication that is suppose to be weight-neutral (it is not a stimulant). If you have only had her treated by her pediatrician, if you find a child psychiatrist, they are much better at teasing out the drug or drug combo that works for each kid. [/QUOTE]
