Avatar m tn I am not prescribed nicotine gum for ADHD, it was just something I read about online 2 years back when I was struggling severing with ADHD at the beginning of graduate school.
1327979 tn?1275235527 Hi there, I'm unaware if your age, but I'm mostly certain you're in high school. Try going to your guidance counselor or talk to a teacher you trust about your dilemma if you can and seek more help through the school that you attend. Most schools are ADD/ADHD experts these days.
Avatar m tn When I was 16 I was diagnosed with add and prescribed adderall. I was diagnosed by taking some long and expensive test. When I took adderall it made my anxiety worse and I felt like I had smoked crack. I tried taking it several times with the same outcome each time. I barely squeezed through high school and have continued to live with it ever since. I am now trying to get a college degree and I am having extreme difficulties.
Avatar f tn First, I don't know how old your child is ...as that makes a difference. Yes, he could have normal results since this is a test designed to be "used for assessing the core symptoms of ADHD: hyperactivity, inattention and impulsivity." Furthermore, the makers of the test say that, "The QbTest results should always be complemented by a clinical interview." Did these doctors interview your child or give any questionnaires to you or his teachers?
1211960 tn?1272974502 I took a self test to deterime which kind of ADHD I had ( there are 6 different kinds.) The test results showed that I had Ring Of Fire ADHD. I was researching this specific type of ADHD and this is what I found: Type 6 -- The Ring of Fire. Cross between ADHD and bipolar disorder. Characterized by moodiness, aggressiveness, and anger. Anticonvulsants or newer antipsychotic medications tend to work better than stimulants. Now I am starting to doubt my diagnosis of bipolar.
1367899 tn?1278121440 My sister and I started a blog on Adderall to learn more about the medication along with alternative and complementary ADHD treatment options. Any feedback from users of Adderall or Adderall XR would be greatly appreciated. Topics to be added this week on http://Adderall.org How is Adderall XR different from Adderall? [Adderall vs. Adderall XR] What is Adderall? How to Make Adderall: [Adderall Background Information] What are the best Adderall and ADHD books?
Avatar m tn I have no experience with the TOVA test. But, I do know that no online computer test can accurately tell if you have ADHD. There is a reason that the clinical standards call for questionnaires of the child's parents and teachers. "In the opinion of one expert panel:18 Computerized tests of attention and vigilance (CPTs)33,40–42 are not generally useful in diagnosis because they suffer from low specificity and sensitivity.43,44." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.
533880 tn?1237612452 I have a three year old...for the last 2 years she has had a few different test done because of frequent and recurring diarrhea, acid reflux, not being able to eat, gas, and other things...back in feb 09 she had a upper and lower procedure done...the only thing they found was candida in the esophagus....they wanted to retest so in sept she had another upper procedure... they said that the candida was still there,... this is my problem...I am not getting any answers from her doc...
Avatar m tn Your probation officer should know what medications you are on. Yes, Adderall is stimulant based, its a methamphetamine. You can look it up online to get the information. You should have a doctors letter stating that you are on the adderall or have your doctor change you to Stratterra which is a non-stimulant treatment for add/adhd, especially in adults. I wouldn't be too worried, but if you don't want to test positive all the time you might want to try something else.
Avatar n tn When I signed up, the opening page said that there would be a tracker for ADHD. While I find the mood tracker helpful, I'd like to see one specifically for ADHD!
Avatar m tn The test was done by them. I know that I seem excessive but I read an article online (university of Virginia) about hep c delaying the window period for hiv. It also said that testing could take up to a year. This really made me panic. I know everyone says no risk but I got hep c by this.
6658361 tn?1384717351 If your question is do they test for adhd in new borns, the answer is no. The only test I know of is a brain scan - which is expensive and not something that you would want to put a young child through. Furtermore, I am not sure how accurate it is. You do have reasons for concern since ADHD is hereditary. But, if neither your or his dad have it, your chances would go down.
Avatar n tn //www.healing-arts.org/children/ADHD/#ADD and look at the subsection on ADD vs. ADHD: Diagnostic Subtypes. You could also buy the book, "The ADD/ ADHD Answer book," by Susan Ashley which is one I recommend a lot. And of course, he just might be immature, bright and bored. But I would want to make sure.
Avatar n tn ive just taken an online test to see if my son has adhd it said that he is showing symtoms. he is 5 years old. his teacher has said that he is the brightest boy in the class but finds it hard to pay attention and fidgets all the time, he shouts out alot and when he is at home he never listens to a word i say when i ask him to behave. he runs and jumps about and never walks and talks constantly i have to ask him repeatedly every time i want him to do something. do you think this is adhd?
Avatar f tn s always had a very tough time taking test and all of his teachers chalked it up to test anxiety like the other 99% of teens (and even some adults). Now my sons confidence level has gone from "yeah I felt pretty good about that test" to "I felt ok, but we all know how it's gonna turn out".
Avatar f tn //************.com/addquiz.htm Second a list of references - http://jeffsaddmind.com/resources Third - an adult ADD site with lots of information from people with ADD - http://jeffsaddmind.com/for-first-time-visitors Fourth is a pretty detailed site with tons of information. Its aimed for parents, but the information on diagnoses and treatments is top notch. Also tons of info here. http://www.healing-arts.
Avatar m tn Did anyone else here realize that you cant order online saliva or blood test if you live in CA or NY. Thats the most rediculous thing ive heard. Im paying for it. Oh well, iguess its just to keep the local labs busy, like their not busy enough.
Avatar f tn I'm a graduate student at an ivy league school and JUST became diagnosed as ADHD. I knew something was very off my entire life, but when you get good grades, no one pays attention to your "not-quite-right" habits. I made it to grad school not ever having a read a book cover to cover. I don't even think I got through an entire chapter. I would find summaries online, skim it, and write about it.
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, I was wondering is it okay to take ADHD medication while pregnant? I know I should ask a doctor but I wanted to check online first..
Avatar n tn Ritalin can certainly cause aggression IF it is given to someone who does not have ADHD or ADD. If a person does have AD/HD it should help with the aggression as they will gain more control over themselves. You didn't mention what the reason was that he was taking ritalin. If he does have AD/HD then when the meds wear off he may be going back to his normal self. I guess the question would be - did he have the same problems before he started the meds.
Avatar f tn ps.. what I meant to say about the medical ethics involved, as it stands.. to make someone deaf would be viewed as removing a faculty - like making someone blind - because there is little or no understanding of it - and there are various treatments available for it too - problem is none of them are covered. The prevailing decisions by.. Workmen's Compensation (this ignoring of neurotology and ENT specialists crosses many things..) type bodies..
Avatar f tn These medicines are called stimulants and usually work better to control ADHD than Tenex. Go back to an ADHD expert doctor and try a different med, if there are no other medical reasons with your son.
Avatar n tn I also have a tendency to fall asleep in class religiously, even during a short lecture. And while watching tutorials online my eyes begin to close minutes into it. I absolutely love reading a good book, but after realizing that i have been subconsciously scanning for a half-dozen pages i have to go back to find where my mind left off. Any recommendations would be a great help, thanks!
