When did you get tested and what types of tests did they perform on you?
Check some of the ADHD websites and see how many symptoms you have, if you come out with more then half you might want to consider getting retested. I pretty much have 4/5ths of classic ADHD symptons. If you had your orignal test done before...i'd say if it was before 2000 you might want to consider retesting. ADHD is relatively new field, maybe the last 15 years they've been making large gains in the methodology. Though I think in the last 5 years, instead of seeking better answers they've just opted to throw more advanced medications (hurray modern medicine). I haven't really kept up with ADHD studies in the last couple of years, most of my knowledge comes from a book on ADHD by Thom Hartmann, published back in 1993. Talks all about it and this was groundbreaking back then.
