[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP, I want to encourage you about the MRI-my dd was delayed similarly (but not as much I don't think) as your ds. She had an EEG and an MRI.

I was so worried about the sedation, but the procedure was at a leading children's hospital (I'm not local) and went really fast and smoothly. In our case, the MRI ruled out brain issues which was a relief. DD was eventually dx with mild ASD, not saying that is what your ds has but just saying that was what turned out to be her case. She has typical IQ (she's had a neuropysch eval).

In the meanwhile while you go through all this (it takes a long time it seems) I think the therapies are the best thing. Regardless of whether he ends up dx with ID or not, the therapies will help him develop. [/quote]

so the MRI was pointless. does not really support getting the MRI.

again, unless doctors can point to a suspicion of something brain-based that will a) show up on the MRI and b) change the treatment, you don't do an MRI. [/quote]
