[quote=Anonymous]I hate to say this but there’s not much you can do for slow processing speed. It’s a lifelong issue. If there’s any ADHD on top of it, it’s a tough road. I think if you’re going for a neuropsych you’re going to be wasting a lot of time because between getting the appointment, going through the testing and getting a report, you’re talking about months. And you seem to already know what the issues are. You identified reading comprehension as a problem. That’s easily evaluated through the school so that’s where I’d start. Since you aren’t looking for medications (which are a life saver co my son with low processing speed and ADHD), no point in an ADHD eval, though I think it’s a mistake not to consider that as a possibility.
