Hi
I'm feeling a little lost at the moment. My daughter looks like she is about to be confirmed as having ADHD. I really thought her behaviour maybe down to her epilepsy but yesturday we saw a nice doctor who said it was not linked to her epilepsy.
He feels she is showing signs of ADHD and has given both us and her school a questionaire to complete before our next visit. Really not sure what this will mean.
He also wants the school nurse to get involved as he feels school seems to be an issue with her.
I guess I felt this would happen but everything is getting a little to much for me. 18 months ago we had nothing now we have epilepsy and possible ADHD.
The positive side of things is that we know what is going on now so can get her the right help.
Sorry for going on .
I am glad that you have found this board. We are here if you need any support or have any questions.

Welcome to the board munch Many things can look like ADHD, including medical conditons and thats why it is critical to have the child assessed by a specialist. Good luck and please keep us posted!
