My son, Graham, has is 16 years old, and I have tried to get him diagnosed and tests done. He was and still is hyperactive and is dyspraxic with speech and learning problems and is a very large boy and has no sense of danger and is half his age mentally.
He had a MRI scan in 1997, and I was not told anything that they found then, and it was left till last year. I took him to a private doctor, who asked for a repeat MR scan to be done and, evenually, doctors this year did the scan. Doctors knew in 1988 he had problems but did no tests. He now has a underdeveloped cerebellum -- which should have been found out when he was born.
He goes to a handicapped school, but I am annoyed about not getting help sooner.
