ATTENTION DEFICIT / HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER  (ADHD) - More Information

The following information was obtained during a lecture by Joseph Beiderman, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, and a noted researcher in the field.  His topic was: "The Neurobiology, Diagnosis and Treatment of ADHD Across The Life Cycle."  As will be seen from the scope and variability of the information,  my commentary which precedes it in this section remains relevant.  All medical care requires a diagnosis, including a differential diagnosis, before comprehensive treatment is embarked upon.  And when the diagnosis remains in doubt, it is better to call  the situation “diagnosis undetermined” rather than to label it prematurely and thus  terminate the critical thinking of others in the matter.
 

GOT IT?  IF NOT, STAY TUNED.  MEANWHILE, BE CAREFUL.
