Okay so we've been dealing with a lot of things at once. One of those things is helping Eliza so she can function at school & primary! She is bright & funny, but very distractable. Last year I took her to be evaluated for an auditory processing disorder. This was a precaution taken because of her prematuritiy. Her Pediatrician wanted to rule it out before deciding on an adhd diagnosis. So off to the clinic we went only to find us back there for 2 more evaluations that had nothing to do with her hearing (which was perfect btw). Instead they involved Asperger's testing followed by an Autistic spectrum disorder diagnosis! We went from being cautious to just plain confused. You know when you get a diagnosis & it explains things & makes sense? Well this was the opposite. It was leaving confused, frustrated, angry, & exhausted. In May was her Kindergarten check up. Pedi sees her, disagrees &
wants a re-evaluation. FINALLY we had her appt today & after 2+ hrs it's ADHD like we thought.
