[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 84295, member: 1991"] I didn't get a chance at the doctor's to raise the possibility of Asperger's - the doctor spent more time with me than I thought she would, so she ran out of time with easy child 2/difficult child 2. Plus, easy child 2/difficult child 2 needed her main object dealt with - the hormonal hassles from the current Pill change, plus the need for a Pap smear, etc. But the doctor DID get to the first stage of referring easy child 2/difficult child 2 to a psychologist. The new system - there are two tests, a short one and a longer one. Both involve filling in a questionnaire, and the doctor has to do it while the patient is t here. easy child 2/difficult child 2 has made an appointment for Thursday afternoon, to get the next stage done. But the first one - it indicates she needs the second bit - there IS a need, in other words. So currently - nothing prescribed, but that could come on Thursday. I don't think she will need me there on Thursday, the doctor now knows in broad at least, what the trouble is. easy child 2/difficult child 2 was happy for me to go in with her. And now, perhaps having had it brought out in the open and our concerns discussed with an impartial, professional third party, maybe she will be more aware of the need to hold herself together, and more aware that we ARE seeking help. I'll keep you all posted. Marg [/QUOTE]
