Thanks for answering my question doctor. Unfortunately I have not been suffering from the common causes. When I am attending my daily lectures, I will concentrate very well for the first ten minutes, but then I will catch myself fidgeting around and just not very comfortable sitting still for my fifty minute lectures. Would there be anything I'd be able to do without going to a phsyician as my current financial situation may limit me in what I can do.
