Hello again.
I just completed the ADOS module 4 with my psychologist. We did that, an hour interview with my parents and an hour interview with me. She will do the ADI R with my parents and give us the ADOS scoring on Saturday. SO I could potentially get a diagnosis/answer on Saturday. I am a little nervous about the ADI-R because I was one of those kids whose symptoms didn't really become apparent (except spinning and interests) till about middle school when everything got complicated. Also, any ideas on how to keep myself busy during those 2 hours? I don't want to spend them obsessing over the interview.
I made this folder of all of these symptom lists, how I fit the criteria (for DSM IV and V), pics from my childhood, and my Aspie Quiz results, but I didn't give it to her. Do you guys think I should brink it next time, or email the files to her?

I guess, basically, what were your guys' scores, does anyone know the algorithms, and how do I not obsess over this?
Also, what would differentiate between an AS diagnosis and a dual diagnosis of Social Anxiety Disorder and OCD?

sorry to "bump" this, but I'd really like an answer, and I doubt it'll get one on the second page...
