4 yr old daughter- social communication disorder?

Hi,

My 4 1/2 yr old daughter is undergoing assesment at the moment. She has just had her first pediatric appointment and we have recieved a letter sumerising what is happening.

She definately has problems and has also been diagnosed with hypermobility and is being refered to a physio. They also are going to do blood tests for 'fragile X chromosomes'

In the letter they refer to a possible 'social communication disorder'??? Are they talking about ASD/Autism or not? They want her to go for full assesment.

Anyone who can give me any further info on any of these would be great.

Thank you,

  • Hi my son has just been diagnosed with asd due to socio communication disorder . He is just 5 and has been seen by peditrician since age 3 as he was a slow talker , he basically has no real behavioural problems , though obsesses with dinosaurs and maybe struggles slightly with routine changes. My son also had the chromasone blood test but was negative . Does this sound similar to u xx
