Suggest Tests To Test Disabitlities In Children

Hi I was just curious do they provide testing for disabilities for three year identical twin boys? My boys were in a tramatic accident 2 years ago in dec of 2012 they climbed their dresser and it fell on them one them had to have plastic and dental surgery they have not been the same since. I am not sure if it is normal three year old behavior or if they are a little off now.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Your children may be exhibiting symptoms of chronic head trauma or prolonged concussive effect. After head trauma children can also have seizures that are subtle in nature an difficult to identify on casual observation. They can be examined by their pediatrician and may also need to be examined by a Neurologist to ascertain the full extent of their problem. Depending on the results of their exams and any indicated testing, a determination will be made whether they have injury requiring rest and time to recover or are perhaps experiencing some post traumatic subtle seizures or mild psychological distress.
