[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you!

Do you know about dyslexia diagnosis?

I have been trying to find this information, but all my google searches yield pages about active duty or new recruiting standards.[/quote]

[b]What does medical care have to do with active duty or recruiting standards. [/b] You need to go through health net/tricare (but they are changing the provider in our region soon).  However, they often say they will not pay for something online and we've found they will pay.  Start with the developmental ped.  Your ped. can give you a referral.  It usually takes a month or two to get in depending on how booked up they are.  Last time I heard they only had two.  For ADHD, you may be able to self refer to the child mental health clinic (and they may be able to refer you for services too) so call them while you are waiting.[/quote]

Until very recently (I think this year) taking medication for adhd blocks a person from joining the military.  The standards were recently relaxed so I think that is why military recruitment and enlistment stuff is popping up first [/quote]
