Cathy A;

Thanks for the book suggestion, I will look for it online today.

Dazed;

No, I don't know what IQ test he was given, I had not really educated myself too much at that point. I don't think that it was very involved, as it was done with some other testing in a one hour session at a psychologist office. Again, He doesn't seem to do his best on these kind of tests because of the attention issues.

May I also add after reading through some other posts last night, that our initial encounter with his psychologist was regarding anxiety issues? In second and third grade he had complaints like "his liver was going to blow up" and "his brain was sinking into his skull", in addition to very real anxiety over G.I. reflux. My husband and I are both medical professionals, so I think he may have heard a little too much talk at the dinner table, and the reflux issues have resolved. However at the beginning of this year he was having anxiety about death and dying, and also over much lesser issues like having two girlfriends at once and stressing over a friend who made a prank phone call at our house. ( Crying because he thougth the police were going to come to our house. ) At this point in time he has stated that those issues have resolved. But anxiety seems to be something that hangs out under the surface, regardless.

Thanks for your input
