You say, that the doc calls it a number of physical Things, while the therapists call it autism. Someone OWE you some kind of help to find out, what it is. Couldn´t you ask the good doc to give you a referral? It would only be fair. If, indeed, it is autism, you can start looking for strategies to help you. Medicine isn´t all.
