    There's really nothing anyone on this site can offer you. There are no doctors on this site. Even if there were, without a full medical history, and access to all tests done, medications given, progress, and access to your child, it would be impossible for a doctor online to give you any advice.

    It's really best to continue communicating with your doctor, or even seeking a second opinion if you feel this doctor isn't giving you the help your son needs.

    That's really all you can do. You won't find advice online for this.

    I do wish you and your son the best of luck.
