what to ask at neurologist appt

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Thursday a.m. I'm taking my 26 month old son to a pediatric neurologist for

our first visit. He's seen the EI SLP (well, actually 2 or 3 different

ones) and a private SLP and they all believe he has apraxia. We are only

getting one visit a week with EI and we just began the other SLP service

through our insurance " network " , which is quite limited. The insurance is

already being difficult about what they might cover and won't commit to

anything.

SOOO, what do I need to ask at the neurologist appointment? What should he

ask me? What EI papers/assessments should I try to take there? If my goal

is to get more/increased service for my son, who is making some progress,

but very very slowly, what " should " happen at this appointment?

I know many many of you have already been down this road ahead of me, so

please let me know what to expect, etc.

Thanks,
