[quote=Anonymous]DS has a convergence issues and is severely dyslexic. We first noticed something in first grade and it became more apparent as he got older. In addition to what you mentioned, DS struggled to start reading at the first letter of a word. The schools provided extra resources but really their efforts did nothing to address DS’s issues. We finally had a neuropsych test done for confirmation (school won’t diagnose but we thought having it officially documented was important) and we paid for Lindamood-Bell. DS is not at grade level, but he can read now. DS also had headaches from reading and it made him tired. Have you asked your son about this? We tried vision therapy, which is controversial and not covered by many insurances, but it eliminated the headaches and tiredness. [/quote]
