Recent Diagnosis

Antrim

Hi my son was diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum on 30th June by a speech therapist for autism, she has said that I will get another appt in 6-8 weeks time and he will be seen by a second specialist for diagnosis.  She says that the diagnosis has to be made by 2 people.  Help is this correct?  I feel like I am having to wait longer when I could and should be getting help.  Please advise.

  • Hi,

    We waited about a year for our son to have a diagnosis of Aspberger's, which we got this week. Apart from a few fact sheets, we have been given no support or further information/referals. All we were told is he's too old for an Early Bird course (he's 12). Really don't know where to go from here or how best to help and support him. Any advice would be gratefully received.

    Thanks
