HELP PLEASE

EmmaM

Hi,

Since my daughter was 2.5 my husband and I have been trying to get help for her.  Today we finally started to get somewhere but I am left confused so some advice would be greatly appreciated.

The doctor at the hospital has discussed with us Autism and ADHD saying that generally the 2 go hand in hand.  He is going to speak to the school and we are going back to see him asap.

Does this mean she has these things as I cant believe he would be going to this trouble if that wasnt the case.

At this stage I am feeling confused we have been battling for this diagnosis for such a long time but I am still not sure if we actually have it or not!!

Your thoughts please.

  • my son aged 11, having been diagnosed with ADHD and treated by three different child psychiatrists for the past two years, has now been diagnosed with Aspergers too. It is apparently quite common for the two to be present. Sounds like you're now getting some where with this doc, don't know how old your daughter is now but good luck with it from hereon, I deal with insurance claims on a daily basis so despite my lad regulalry making life pretty hard for all of us I'm constantly reminded to count my blessings. best wishes.
