[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 402582"] Well, the doctor is a neuropsychiatrist. No testing was done, mostly a consultation. The tests that would show if kiddo is Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), etc., still have to be done by someone else. Wants to know why SpEd isn't testing for it when SpEd is doing the IEP on emotional disorder. SpEd suggested I get full evaluation for anything outside of IEP that could be added in later. *headdesk* I will say she listened to kiddo a lot more, asked her a lot more, we spent more than an hour with her. She added Topamax and Intuniv, to be tritated up slowly for her ADHD and anxiety. She'll refer us to the psychologist for further testing, and (just what kiddo wanted to hear) wants a blood draw to get baseline readings. Feel like I'm running in circles now, but I do think she's an improvement over the other psychiatrist even if it means a 60 mile round trip every month (ouch). Opinions? Experience with these medications? [/QUOTE]
