Health Checks for Autistic Adults Study

Hi!

Has anyone else been invited via their GP to take part in this health checks for autistic adults study?

https://research.ncl.ac.uk/autismhealthchecks/

I've signed up to do it but wonder what others think of it!

    I read something about this before I thought connected to London. I think it would help, I dread going to the doctors and usually have to be coerced into going. Then when I'm there I don't know how to explain what's wrong, what I'm feeling or how to put something on a scale of 1 to 10 if asked.

    I think it could definitely be beneficial, there is a life expectancy difference associated with autism, and health inequality is likely a factor. Any attempt at tackling this, especially backed up by data, is a good thing.
