[quote=Anonymous]So as not to hijack the several other threads asking about psycho-ed v. neuropsych v. diagnostic pediatrician, am posting my version of this tale. When DS was barely 3, he was tested by the school psychologist. She thought he was on the spectrum, and DS has been in special ed public pre-school for 2 years (in N. VA). Shortly thereafter, Chuck Conlon saw him and was not ready to say that he was on the spectrum. Fast forward 2 years: Conlon's gone off into the sunset, and my DS is largely doing well, and headed for gen pop kindergarten come the fall. He has some sensory issues, particularly where controlling his body is concerned, and hitting is sometimes an issue. Is now the right time to find another doctor and have him tested/diagnosed? Will the diagnosis be more reliable if we wait another year? Thanks! [/quote]
