[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 607524, member: 15799"] We also saw many, many "professionals" that had answers that gave difficult child 1 a LONG list of diagnosis's over the years. The neuropsychologist looked at ALL the records from every one of those others and did testing of his own and came up with the REAL answer. His Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and ADHD diagnosis covered pretty much every symptom difficult child 1 ever displayed. Everything made so much sense after that and changes were made with those 2 in mind and we've come a long way. The tx for these diagnosis's are all so different that if you have the wrong diagnosis, you have the wrong tx and nothing gets better and may even get worse. We had to wait 6 months from the first request so don't give up. It was well worth the wait and made a huge difference. The key for us was to make sure the neuropsychologist had everything I could gather from all years past. That is what I spent that waiting time doing. I even got reports from way back when he was a baby. The more info they have, the more accurate their diagnosis. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
