  • Hi steff118,

    In terms of diagnosis, you can either go through the NHS or privately. If you are going through the NHS, you need to be referred to a diagnostician by your GP. It might be helpful to look at our pages on adult diagnosis. In terms of private diagnosis, the price can vary from £100-£1000 or more. The issue with private diagnosis is that in some cases Local Authorities have not accepted a private diagnosis. I hope this helps you but if not, you may want to contact our helpline which you can also email for further advice.
