[QUOTE="Shari, post: 128691, member: 1848"] SRL, good point. I'll bring that up with the developmental peds this week. He's had pretty thorough evaluations - neurologist he's seen since he was 6 months old (tho I don't like that guy), developmental pediatrician we first saw at 2, behavior therapist, psychiatrist (did evaluation, not currently on team), and an in-home therapist. DevPed is the "leader" in this. She suspects a mood disorder, but aren't sure other than "developmental delays", and "severe emotional and behavioral concerns" at this point, and that's not even a diagnosis, just a label. His current team isn't diagnosis-ing until they find something that fits, which I appreciate. He's 300 times better than he was when we started this process, but he still is no where near functioning at a real-world level right now. And this comes and goes, he'll do well for a period of time, sometimes a long period of time, then he'll hit a downslide that rivals the length of ski slopes in the alps... One good thing right now, the agression hasn't returned yet, and I expected it by now. Words are there, but actions aren't yet. [/QUOTE]
