[QUOTE="EB67, post: 44079, member: 3750"] As smallword mentioned we don't diagnose here but we can give you some direction on where to start and this site has some basic information. If it rings a bell we can provide you with more direction. [url]http://www.aspergersyndrome.org/[/url] Rings more than a few bells I tell you. The only piece that doesn't fully fit is the social one as he is very outgoing. Though he does miss social cues at times and has almost no threshold for frustration. He does avoid eye contact. He does appear to be "a little professor". I could furnish examples that would make you laugh or cry or at least roll your eyes... Suffice it to say whatever you know he knows more (according to him). In spite of my advanced education he views me as a complete idiot (and has told me that he's amazed that I have advanced degress as I know nothing). Yesterday he wrote a poem in class called "Antidissestablishmentarianism". Need I say more? >>What types of specialists gave his diagnosis's? Has he been seen by a developmental pediatrician or neuropsychologist? As a whole, we've found those two speciality areas to be most reliable in pediatric diagnoses. Interesting. He is seen by a pediatric behavioral neurologist (SHOOOT I literally have to run to get him and take him there NOW). Do you think a different doctor would be preferable?? Ella The Explosive Child changed our lives, literally. [/QUOTE]
