Visit with Neurologist....
The visit today went great. The doctor said what Faith is dealing with is certainly a brain issue, however what he is able to test, detect, and treat is bigger than what she suffers from. Basically what he said is Mood Disorders (bi-polar, ADHD, ADD) are smaller issues that are better dealt with at the psychiatrist and psychologist level. He did some tests and basically was able to rule out her need for a Neurologist at this time. That is great news for us. She seems to be doing well right now. She has started clinching her fist all the time now. We are not sure if it is a side effect of medicines or not. It is nice to be able to check off one more thing to ensure we are doing everything possible to help her. I never want to look back and know that there was something else I could have done to help her. Just like I told the doctor, and he agreed, we must try everything. Kris
