joybed Report post Posted November 12, 2008 Hi all further to my post could DS2 have ADHD I have finally plucked up the courage to ask my GP for a CDC assessment. DH still very happy to bury his head in the sand, actually used those words to me but i know Piers needs help. After speaking to my friend (health visitor) my neighboour who is a teacher at a secial needs school and the home school liaison officer who came about Marcus i decided it was better to seek help and get him a diagnosis/ support as necessary. My GP although did refer was unhelpful in saying he looked fine to him developmentally if not a little hyperactive, we were in the room 5 minutes, if that, so how could he tell. The trouble is I feel really ###### today partly because DH doesn,t know I have asked for a referral and partly because I am scared of the outcome although I know this can only be positive whatever their findings. Found it really hard to concentrate at work today and back there tomorrow not looking forward to it, so sick of putting a smile/ brave face on. I also posted concerns about my daughter but she has now really settled into school and with the help of medication has stopped soiling. She now speaks to everyone and is really enthusiatic about homework, school etc she also can,t wait for the 4 parties they have coming up. So my concerns regarding her have been largely put to rest it was just shyness. Thankyou all for your support sure i will need more in the future.
