My son has been diagnosed with almost everything possible over the past 13 years and he is only 22! ADD, NVLD, Bipolar, ODD, OCD, PDD, autisic spectrum, Asperger's and now undifferentiated schizophrenia. Currently he is in crisis and was hospitalized involuntarily 4 days ago. I need to come up with options - FAST.
He is 2000 miles away and the internet has been helpful but not a miracle. Because of his diagnosis and a family Hx of ADD and depression, I believe a SPECT scan would be a logical screening tool before we try another drug. After 12 different drugs I want to get it right this time if at all possible.
Getting to the Amen clinic seems to be very impractical right now. Does anyone know of a Dr. or clinic that does SPECT scans or a psycopharmacology specialist in Oregon?
