<s>[INST] my son is 11 years old, he struggles at school, he was diagnosed with ADD, he is taking medication for ADD, we recently took him to a Phycologist as he became very deprest and could not get allong with the teacher, she did a IQ test and he has a above average IQ, she suspect asperger s. We also took him for blood test and we got the results that his thyroid does not work probably, could this maybe cause some of his problems? [/INST] Some of the ADHD like symptoms can result from thyroid dysfunctions.Abnormal thyroid function test is more common among ADHD than general population.Ask your pediatrian for thyroid medications. </s>
