Well, no dev peds within' 50 mile radius; the neuropsychs that are withn a 50 mile radius only see children with brain damage (ie: strokes car accidents, epilepsy). They suggested we we call whatever clinical psychologists with phd's on our plan, and I found 4,.....caled all 4, heard back from two. One was very nice but doesn't deal with dev delays or spectrum kids the 2nd one sounds like a friggin' Godsend! He understood everhing dh said on the phone and turns out he has a ds of his own with ASD!!!!!!
We see him Aug 2nd, and our ins covers it...technicaly!

Please God this is it!!!

That is great news! I hope that this new doctor is everything you need him to be. It sounds like he will be someone who will understand your situation. Keep us posted!

Thanks all,

I am still keeping the appt with another clinical psychologist who does a 6 hr (over two sessions) eval too. Although those appts are after this guy. Essentially I'm hedging my bets, kwim?

Our reg family doc is sending the appeal to the insurance bollox's (google that if you dars, Paula exempt;) to see if they'll cover anything at all from the eval. Not hiolding my breath.

Oh and today I joined a women's gym....yes we're broke but still I need something other than beer dammit;)
