[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Talk to your pediatrician. Make a list of all your concerns before the appointment. It’s easy to forget things when you’re trying to remember them in the moment. That’s a good starting place. [/quote]
I should have noted that we did talk to our ped, who ruled out a few physical issues but did refer us to an ent as he theorized that the behavior could be
Linked to poor sleep caused by apnea or other issues. He also gave us the name of a psychology practice that is not taking new patients.

I’m really looking for input from parents who may have dealt with similar circumstances, especially if you have a resource you’d recommend.[/quote]
OP are you in or near MD?  I recommend: 
1. Take the course Parent Child Journey (formerly called Raising Your Challenging Child): http://www.parentchildjourney.com  If you are married, get child care and take it with DH
2. Continue to follow up on the physical issues
3. Therapy now (find another practice) if desperate but even if you do, 
4. Once your DS is 7, you have more answers on the physical issues, you've observed his progress in school this coming year and you've taken the class, get your DS evaluated (neuropsych testing).
