[QUOTE="WhymeMom?, post: 55651, member: 53"] It sounds to me like you are due for another medical evaluation. I am not a professional on this as my child is what I call a "first generation" ADD sufferer....he was first diagnosed with ADD in second grade and we went thru medications, successfully at first, then they lost effectiveness. Since he is 24 now there have been advancements in diagnosing and treatment....There are others here that can speak better on this, but I would recommend you find a children's hospital in your area that evaluates children and get a neuro psychological evaluation (not the correct term, but its not coming to me at the moment). It does sound like more than ADHD and that usually doesn't stand alone in a diagnosis.... The medication merry go round is not easy to do and its great when something works, but a bummer when it loses effectiveness.... Thinking of you and your family, hope you find some answers...Others will be along to offer you more definative posts..... [img]:flower:[/img] [/QUOTE]
