Guest guest Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Hi, i am new here on this group. I am writting about my 6 year old son. he has no diagnosis other than ADHD yet but there is way more than just adhd going on with him. He has a few tics. he has some obsessive behaviors, he had sensory issues. he falls down alot. other than the ADHD (he definately has this because the adhd meds do help him to calm down and sit for a few min at a time for school.)his issues are very difficult to put in one diagniostic box. he doesn't have the " typical " symptoms for many of the disorders i have investigated, but he seems to have many of the secondary ones that are common to them. i am a little lost here and feeling out of my league. My 11 year old has mild adhd and Cystic Fibrosis. her ADHD is so mild that she is very able to control herself at school and while out of the house (mostly) most people think she is just " very active " . I am used to medical stuff, not so much these behvioral things. Jonny is really different than anyone i know. We do have an IEP in place for him for first grade. Anyway we are trying to get a diagnosis for Jonny-tourettes? SID/SPD? OCD? Aspergers? Autism? i don't know. I am hoping that I can help him manage his tics so they do not cause him social problems in first grade..... any ideas for managing the tics would be helpful. mom of Jonny 6 with ADHD and ? and 11 with CF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
