I m 69 years old. I was diagnosed with ADHD 14 years ago. Since I ve retired , I m having a terrible time finding a provider who: 1. Knows what Adult ADHD is. 2. Doesn t think I m too old to treat. My (new ) Doctor sent me for a psychological evaluation. It was an outpatient clinic that treats disability patients. My provider was an ARNP. While she peered over her computer screen, she asked a few random questions while she was typing. She told me there were too many health risks for a retired obese person . I m 5 4 and weigh 165. My recent lab work and EKG were perfectly normal, I ve never had a problem with my blood pressure and the only health problem I have is osteoarthritis. She didn t think a stimulant would be good for me. I ve been on adderall for 14 years without problems. My dose was lowered once. She said I didn t need a feel good pill and anyone would feel good taking it. That is not what I take it for. She refused to recommend treatment. ( no telling what report she sent to my dr.) I know this is a long read, but I am very frustrated. I ve spent hours on line looking for someone who knows something about over 50 ADHD. I m in the Tallahassee, FL area. My original provider belongs to an HMO so I am unable to go there.
