You mention that medication is not a "cure all"; newsflash, the magic "cure all" does not exist
We have been,working with her for years, we are gonna try medication for 2 months
Einstein was reportedly autistic, he never had treatment...

No, it was just the way that you phrased your opening statement that led me to that conclusion. However, I provided the caveat that I had not read beyond the OP to see if you provided further details.
