Been reading these posts for a while but first time posting. Scan date 23/06 so getting close, probably next week or 2. Applied for my 8 year old daughter ADHD (diagnosed) ASD (undiagnosed). Didn’t supply much evidence just her diagnosis letter and ASD referral. She has severe tantrums and meltdowns. Really struggling with her behaviour and how to help her.
Changed her school just before I applied as she was having so many problems there but so far has been masking and seems more settled in new school so not sure they’ll be supporting the application although they’ve referred her for ELSA therapy. Her old school definitely would have supported. Not feeling hopeful but will definitely do an MR. Anyone else with same scan date as me?

@Tmxx if I get an update I'll let u know, when I phoned today he said to ring back 13th November as should b done by then xx

Yes please! I kept thinking I'd ring at 16 weeks asking for an update as then its past the 15 weeks they've stated but all they will say is no change so thinking it's pointless! It feels like a lifetime ago I sent the forms!

@Mummyrach13 you would hope you’ll be next week, keeping everything crossed for you ☺️I’d not had any migraines for over 6 months and then wham, I’m trying to not get too focused on it until end of the month. Just worried about what I can provide for MR if needed

Jneill2021 · 18/10/2023 11:26

Any one had any news on a coc today? Xx

@JME85 I agree! The bloke I spoke to was lovely but jeez I don't think I can take much more esp after the past few weeks alone 😩

This wait is really getting to me, my anxiety's going mad

The last bit is the worst!! An online system would be so much easier for all, even if it’s just to log in for an update to keep us all sane!! xx
