Where do you live??? How extensive is this “testing,” anyway? Really, I had a few conversations with my doc, he asked about family history, my history, gave me a test that is actually available under “Tools” on this website, diagnosed me, and lectured me about other things to do that will work better than meds, then gave me the medication, so I can focus on those other things.

Maybe part of that is that he’s my family doc and has had a chance to observe me over a few years, but really, it’s not like a huge IQ test or anything like that. Getting the meds from the pharmacist was more of a hassle, because it required insurance approval.

If you don’t feel you are getting the treatment you need, switch doctors. If you don’t think it’s working, and the doctor refuses to listen or help you with the ADHD, find somebody who will. It sounds like she’s giving you the runaround. Could you ask your son’s doc for a better dr. recommendation? Could your son’s doc evaluate you, or is he a pediatrician?
