[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you who got dyspraxia diagnoses, where did you go? What were the symptoms that lead you to seek a diagnosis? Just interested, because I think the diagnosis likely fits my DS but nobody has every suggested it. We've never done a full dev ped eval because he was doing well with the services he got under the developmental delay code. But as he gets closer to 6, I know we will need to do more testing. [/quote] We got it early on (called DCD) from a physical medicine doctor at Children’s. A developmental pediatrician could also probably diagnose it. Did PT and OT to improve fine and gross motor skills. My DC also have apraxia or speech — which was often called verbal dyspraxia 14 years when DC was diagnosed. [/quote] Interesting. How did you end up being referred to a physical medicine dr as opposed to a dev ped? Was it due to the motor delays? [/quote]
