Revised Diagnosis for My Son

Post Reply New Topic

I posted a discussion thread a while back about my son being diagnosed as having "Mild/Moderate Autism", but today we were back at the psychologist for an appointment and I guess I misunderstood. Apparently, the Mild/Moderate Autism label was what was determined by one of the many autism assessment/screen tests our psychologist. She had a full, several page report ready today and staterd that in her professional opinion he has "Persuasive Development Diasorder/High Functioning Autism". Now, it's time to start looking for preschool programs and get him visits with the speech pathologist here in town! So, there's the update.
