    Thanks, Grinity. Lexington KY is approx 9.5 hours hours away. Suppose we could try to make a family vacation out of it. I'm hoping someone might have a rec for a Dr just a bit closer to home ;-) But I'll see if I get additional responses here and I do appreciate your post. I'll also look up info on Dr. Amend.

    Is there a university near you? You may want to look into that for testing.

    That's what we did! 9.5 isn't too bad, actually.

    I second Dr. Amend - we live in Florida and came very close to just biting the bullet and driving up to him for testing. He took the time to speak with me on the phone for quite some time and I was absolutely BLOWN away. He SO understood everything I shared with him without having to go into deep explanations. We have very rarely ever found anyone who just "gets it". We wish we lived that closer to him - would be SO worth the drive.
