[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 72001, member: 2423"] I'm sorry you're struggling. In terms of the MRI, our neurologist told us that the yield is very low. In other words, very few abnormalities are picked up on MRIs, but neurologists recommend the test as a rule-out. Furthermore, neurologists don't generally read the MRIs; neuroradiologists do and then send the neurologist (or pediatrician) a report. I've had two kids go through MRIs, and both times the MRI findings (tiny abnormalities) were not related to their mood disorders. Since your daughter is getting worse and you don't seem comfortable with the psychiatrist, I think I'd recommend seeking out a child psychiatrist at a children's hospital. I hope you get some answers soon. [/QUOTE]
