Hi!
I've been lurking for the past few months and think it is time that I officially join your group.
DS9 was diagnosed with Sensory Integration Disorder (tactile, proprioceptive and vestibular issues) last Fall and has been in PT/OT all year. He has had a lot of issues at school (not paying attention, illegible handwriting, inability to do written out math), but I he has always been considered a smart kid. Anyway, our PT suggested a full psycho-educational assessment...which is why we are here. We have come away from the assessment with a diagnosis of ADHD inattentive type and the following test scores:
WISC-IV
VCI 132
PRI 135
WMI 113
PSI 112
FSIQ 132
GAI 140 (if I calculated this correctly, the psych did not put in her report)
WIAT-II
Reading 120
Mathematics 123
Written Language 113
Oral Language 126
For anyone interested in his WISC Subscores used for GAI calc:
Similarities 16
Vocabulary 13
Comprehension 17
Block Design 18
Picture Concepts 12
Matrix Reasoning 17
The psychologist thinks that if we can properly medicate him for the ADHD, then his achievement will fall more in line with his IQ.
I'm looking for any kind of advice/experience that any of you have to offer.
Thanks!
