My son is 3 and is currently seeing a paeditrician and he impressed to her as Aspergers.
Since reading up more on ASD, I am pretty sure I am and also my father (who is a textbook ADHD.)
I spoke to my GP and asked to be referred somewhere for diagnosis, I was asked what traits I have etc. He then agreed to send me somewhere local.. I have heard people don't get taken too seriously if they are not sent to a proper place. I did suggest a referral to Cambridge (which is only 20 miles from me) however he said "no, let's try this place that I suggested" It's been about 3 months and I have still had no appointment through or any contact..
I'm a bit unsure and skeptical as to why he wouldn't want to send me to Cambridge and would rather go to this local place that as far as I am aware does not diagnose people for ASD or if he is planning on referring me to anywhere at all..
Any help / opinions would be appreciated!
:)
