FASD Often Overlooked in ADHD Diagnosis: Letter to the Editor
This letter from Dr. Leigh Henderson states, “Due to the stigma of FASD, the common lack of proof of prenatal alcohol exposure, lack of clinical awareness and lack of disability support, the FASD diagnosis is often overlooked. It is only when treatment of the person as only having ADHD is shown to be ineffective and a comprehensive diagnosis is done, that these individuals are on the pathway to understanding and addressing their condition.”
