It's very disheartening.
Thanks for posting.
Problem is, Part of what puts people at a disadvantage is lack of information. When the words "it isn't known" come up about any health problem, then those words jeopardize anyone with a I don't know type of disadvantage to being bullied as it is, and I seem to have a few good sources to try to discuss with my doctors about autism and a string of other conditions and they don't want to have a discussion. They want to go with the idea a piece of paper from a school automatically makes them right and me wrong even if I walk into their office with an armload of technical professional manuals
