:foot: I am having a problems with my ADHD criteria symptoms and I am not taking anything thing for focusing our hyperactivity.

I have epilepsy and my doctor refuses to give me meds that are stimulatants. How else am I supposse to forcus and calm down. ;)

Who would pay for a reevaluation to be done. The diagnoses they gave me was Mild Neurocognitive disorder because of my epilepsy. In otherwords, the put me into a category cause they dont know where to put me.

I want to take meds but she wont prescribe meds, other thans straterra. Do any of you who are knowledgable about ADHD. :soapbox: :foot:

Do stimulants lower the seizure threshold?

A college/University will often provide Assessments, or funding for them.

WTF does Mild Neuro-Cog. disorder mean?

Is it in the DSM? (I've never heard of it. I'll go ask my SO, ok?)

Yah, it is the Appendix A, of the PDR

That is what I would like to know... I knwo Neuro is for nerves I think. and cognitive is thinking. so because I have epilespy they throw me in the is category.

That would be great Queen.

There has to be a doctor that I can see to test me again for ADHD and dyslexia. I knwo I am but my psychologist doesnt do the testing. My neurologist sent me to the doctor who diagnosed me.... MNCD. WTF that means.... it is under alzheimers and dementia in the appendiz...... geesh... these doctors have been giving me the run around and I am ready to give up on school... I am so frustrated.
