[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 78688, member: 3837"] My sons had QEEG tests done to help determine ADHD/ADD. We also filled out questionaires about each of them (there teachers did too) as well as spoke with the doctor. The tests aren't harmful at all. I do think having him tested is the best thing you can do for him. Imagine having something wrong with you and not being able to communicate what it was. Imagine how frustrated you would become when people expect certain things from you and you can't deliver. The best thing you can do for him is to know what's wrong and get him help. Whether its a new diet, medication or another route. If he gets the help he needs, his frustration level will come down, your frustration level will come down and so will his teachers. ADHD/ADD is not something that you can grow out of, at least this is how I feel about it. I swear my husband has it. The testing is simple and besides taking some time, is painless. Knowing how to help your son overcome obstacles is the best way you can help him. It doesn't mean everything will be perfect after you receive a diagnosis, but it will help you help him to get on the right path. It will also help his teachers understand his needs better. Welcome to the board, don't be scared to share your feelings. We are here to help you in any way we can and offer our support. There are some great people on here with a variety of opinions. I don't think you could ask for anything better, so you can hear different ideas and make a decision that fits you and your son best. [/QUOTE]
