SPECT Scan

[FallingApart]

Hi all,

 

The past month has been filled with turning toward the health of DDs brain. This led us to learn about SPECT scans. We are on our third day of 3 days of testing and today we will get the results. I fully expect to walk in and not learn anything too new about the status of DD's brain. But I'm just wondering if anyone else has done this and if it yielded anything great for you.

 

I guess my post sounds strange...if I don't expect to learn anything new, why are we doing it? DH and I are indeed hoping to learn additional things that we don't yet know. It is just the areas of rage, lack of empathy, etc, that won't be new to us....

We went to NYC a few years ago for a SPECT scan but did not learn anything from it.

We did a spect scan in Kansas and learned nothing other than my son had no severe lesions and that our health insurer wouldn't pay for it even though it was precertified...
