[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 672083, member: 1550"] How does he know you are wrong? Testing intensively is the only way to tell. Some fetal kids don't "look" fetal alcohol. What is a consultant?? Do you live outside the U.S. maybe? If so maybe someone from your country has ideas about who to see. In the U.S. the main "go-to" professional for diagnosing is often a neuropsychologist (which is NOT a neurologist).I would get the opinion of a very high level professional, not just a counselor.We had horrible luck with lower level professionals, such as counselors. They really don't have the training to diagnose. Neuropsychs and psychiatrists do. We were given wrong diagnoses a lot. It's very hard. Once we got the right diagnosis. we went up fast. Don't accept from ANYONE that there is nothing you can do. Go UP the ladder for help. [/QUOTE]
