[QUOTE="oceans, post: 34988, member: 2687"] Was it a neurologist or a neuropsychologist? Was high functioning autism ruled out? If you are seeing progress with the therapy, keep doing it! Sometimes difficult child's do need both therapy and medications. It depends on the difficult child, and if it is an accurate diagnoses. It would not hurt to get a second opinion. If you do decide to try stimulants, you would know fairly quickly if they are helping or not. Stimulants can always be stopped if they are not working. It sounds like you would be more comfortable getting another diagnostic opinion. You can always decide after that if you want to try the medication or not. [/QUOTE]
