It would be prudent to have him evaluated by a developmental pediatrican.
thank you guys very much i will try to get him into dr soon i will let you know what happens
Hi there! It almost sounds as if your 21mos. old son may have developmental issues'.
You had mentioned your oldest child does. I know that my grandson is ADHD/Asbergers' and as a toddler he acted out the same way. He is on a drug called Respiradol and one other that I cant' think of the name. He just recently seen to Physciatrists' here in Ontario at one of our best hospitals in Kingston. He is now at the age of 11. The new medication has done wonderfully well for him. At one point he was suspended from school more than he was in school. He seen these two Physciatrists' in Sept.2010 and has only been sent home once. It wasn't because he was acting out but the teacher caught the way his mood had changed and decided it best that he go home for the afternoon just to have a quiet time. It worked. He loves school now where before you couldn't bring the topic up to him. I know that you want the best for your child so hopefully your insurance will cover something such as this. Your pediatrician should also know at this point by you telling him/her about your childs' actions'. He/she as well can introduce a medication to see if it helps. I wish you much luck. Take care my friend. Rita
Yes, that is a sensible way to arrange it. Such an evaluation may require a referral from his pediatrician - that depends on your insurance arrangement.
So do i ask his pediatrician to set it up and tel them what is going on? is that the best route to go with this
