Diagnosis

Hey everyone!

I am very new to this and was just wondering if i could recieve some advice about my son.

He is now 5 and we have a history of AS within the family (dads side) we have just moved to a new area and hes recently started a new school. So far it has been a struggle getting him to settle and make friends. Ive always seen traits of AS but it is definitley more evident the older he is getting.  What help is out there and is my first port of call a visit to his GP for an assessment?

Any advice or shared experiences is gretaly appreciated

  • Ahh thank you, thats very helpful to know. In the process of registering at the local docs surgery so we will have an initial health assessment soon so i will probably bring it up then.  I am a bit apprehensive i guess as worried i will just be fobbed off as 'another paranoid mum'.
