Well this past Monday I talked to my son's doctor and she had gone over his chart and no testing had ever been done, so she ordered the test for him and we went an got his blood draw on Wednesday. He was a trooper and did really well. He didn't wiggle (which is hard for him an ADHD kid) and he didn't flinch or cry. I am proud of him. The blood has to be sent out to our local children's hospital about a 100 miles away and we should know in a week or two if he has fragile X. If he does I am going to request that my daughter gets a genetic screening to see if she is a carrier. We will cross that bridge if my son is in fact diagnosed with the syndrome.
