Help!!

Hi, just thought maybe you would be a good place to ask for help, I'm at my wits end here, and looking for someone to give me back some sanity. My question; has anyone heard of any good results using Focusfactor??
This is in reference to my 11yr old son, shall I give you the cliff note version of his medical conditons?
4 yrs; noticed a "problem" so tried the Feingold diet, worked for about a year
5yr old; diagnosed ADHD, treatment Dexedrin (sp?)
9yrs; switched to Adderall
then we noticed a delay in growth, seems his hormones are greatly delayed, been seeing a specialist for this.

11 yrs; appetite supressed, zero sleeping, and still vastly undergrowth, so we switched him to Strattera, which after three weeks made him nausea and vomitting.
3 weeks shy of his 11th b day he began developing tics.

I need to find some answer before school begins, his doctor I think is running out of answers and I'm running out of patience for these doctors, isn't there one doctor that can treat all difficulties?? I don't know.

Any advice, assistance or suggestions anyone can offer I would greatly appreciate. Look forward to your reply, Until then.
