[quote=Anonymous]We are on a 6 month waitlist for a neuropsych exam at Stixrud and elsewhere. We are not looking for accommodations. Would just like to trial a med. I have ADHD. Kid is very much like me. Was doing well---many compensatory behaviors-- but this year is going horribly as class difficulty in high school has ramped up. I believe in doing a full neuropsych exam for sure but in the short term, the kid is really struggling in school. It is very difficult to have to tread water in our current crisis state and wait until spring. Is there anyway to get abbreviated testing and trial treatment in the meantime? I have not asked the pediatrician yet but i imagine they will say no. Can we see a child psychiatrist in the meantime? Thank you, thank you for any thoughts. [/quote]
