[quote=Anonymous]My younger daughter (not quite tween aged) and I both have ADHD. I was diagnosed in DC by a psychiatrist. I paid my copays to see him (met regularly because of meds) but didn’t pay for extensive testing. (Though I will say that could be informative - I know someone going through it for themselves and I think we could use more info for our daughter.) We moved and I was rediagnised (ie repeated tests) by a psychiatrist who, again was in network with our insurance. Our DD has a developmental ped (takes a long time to get into one and we don’t see him often) who thought anxiety, adhd, or both seemed possible and then started seeing a psychiatrist who diagnosed her with ADHD. He gave her one med last year that we didn’t stay on very long. This year the developmental ped suggested a different medication and we feel like it’s helping. [/quote]
