> What I would ask myself is this: what difference will the test make in treatment? Will a change or confirmation in diagnosis alter the treatment plan? Will your doctor change your medications? I think much of the time diagnosis is not as helpful as looking at each of the symptoms. The same meds are often used anyway.

While I agree with Noa's points it is possible the Doc might want proof in the form of a test b4
he/she treats for ADD. As stims are the mainstay
of ADD treatment and are scheduled and watched the doc may want some backup.j
