Publisher's Note
In the tradition of "Talking Back to Prozac" and "Reviving Ophelia", this groundbreaking book shatters the myth of the hyperactive child, offering concrete information on how to stop the cycle of drugs and find real medical help.

If so, The Hyperactivity Hoax will show you how to find real medical help for your child--not just an ADHD or ADD label and a pill.In over thirty years of practice, Dr. Sydney Walker has successfully diagnosed and effectively treated hundreds of children with hyperactive behavior or attention problems. How? Not by merely masking their symptoms with Ritalin or other drugs, but by diagnosing and treating their real medical problems--problems ranging from metabolic and genetic disorders to heart conditions, infections, anemia, brain cysts, hearing and vision problems, and toxic exposure (to name just a few).The
