First Doctors Appointment for ASD diagnosis - what should I expect?

MarcoPolo

I have decided to get a formal diagnosis for ASD and so I have made a doctors appointment.

I'm anxious about what I will be asked and if my issues will be brushed off as nothing so I'm hoping the community here can help.

What should I expect to be asked in my first appointment with the Doctor? I know it is just to get a referral but I really need this to work as life isn't easy.

Thank you

    I took the result. I think I printed the questions and looked up the scoring. I guess you could just do AQ10. I got sent another from from psychology and another test anyway. I did find it helpful to have a list of things when I went for the appointment to confirm whether I would be referred to go on the waiting list, as they asked a lot of questions including about childhood.
