[quote=Anonymous]OP here. We had a full neuropsych eval done (to answer one of the PP's questions), and ADHD certainly tracks because DH and our other DC have it, but his presentation is different. It's possible it is a misdiagnosis - I am a little skeptical, as you have seen from my post - but I'm also interested in seeing if this could help. He struggles a lot with reading ane could use all the boost he can get there. We already have had him in tutoring and are doing an intensive summer program, so it's not that we are hoping the meds will magically fix it (although I would love if they helped with retention!). He's a super sweet kid and very smart but totally turned off of academics because it's so hard for him - and it's going to only get harder. The psychiatrist today suggested another increase in meds and to try a different one if it does work.[/quote]
