I have to bring up Asperger's again!!!

Posted by Colleen D. on May 23, 2005, at 19:27:44

And THANKS to everyone who contributed to that very informative previous thread!!!

My 5 yo son is being eveluated for it right now. He will be 6 in August and is being "mainstreamed" into kindergarten this fall. He was born with a (x4) chromosome translocation and parenting him has been anything but normal. He a sweet, sensitive boy who is legally blind and his teachers tell me he is very intelligent for his age. Tonight I did a search on Asperger's and when I read the criteria for diagnosis, I could see that *I* meet most of the criteria. Is this condition treatable with drugs and therapy? I can't believe that my anxiety since childhood and the resulting depression I've had may be due to my having this condition and I hmay have passed it on to him. He is definitely the most like me of my three children. I have only seen two pdocs in my life and I'm wondering if I should speak with my GP about my suspicions and get another referral. Does anyone else here suspect they have Asperger's?
